Very poor product
I bought two of these sharpeners. Neither works well as both seem to have inadequate, possibly blunt, blades. One of them also had a piece of plastic at the tip of the sharpener which snapped off the point of the pencil each time before it could be sharpened and is therefore useless. I would return them and seek a refund but I no longer have my receipt. They were not expensive items but they are virtually unusable.

Very disappointed
You'd think a pencil sharpener would be a uniform size for an average pencil but the smaller size is too loose to grip a pencil and sharpen it properly. Quite frankly, useless! I haven't tried the bigger size because I have no large pencils. You would think that a reputable name like Derwent would get it right, but unfortunately, not with this simple product. I would return the product but it isn't worth it under our current tier 4 circumstances.

My pencils don’t fit properly
In general,
a good pencil sharpener incorporated into a box. Sharpens ordinary pencils well - however - I bought it to sharpen my Artist quality coloured pencils - the small sharpener is too small and the large sharpener is too big.

Does the job
Sharpens smoothly but not to a fine point which is what I wanted. Good to have the 2 sizes.

Sharpener is poor quality
Don’t buy. It didn’t last very long and the blade became blunt quickly and clogged.

Not impressed
I brought as I thought it was a good idea. As I take my pencils out a lot, it was just the right size as well. The problem was The sharpener itself. It is very cheap and didn’t work. It broke the ends of my pencils. So I took it out and replaced it with a decent one. Unfortunately it didn’t fit. So it ended up in the bin I wouldn’t recommend it it may be okay for children.

Nice sharpener
This sharpener is a nice size, with two cutting sizes which is always useful. I like that it has an enclosed casing that will collecet the clippings, saving me having to stand over the bin to use it! Good price and looks nice quality.

Not sharp
Bought this thinking it would be great for sharpening my colouring pencils unfortunately I've found it's not very sharp and breaks the leads very easily. I've gone back to one I got for 19p which works alot better
