Perfect for my art student daughter
The adjustable coarseness is a game changer. My daughter can get a fine point for detailed drawing or a blunt tip for shading. The auto-feed works smoothly without jamming.

Sturdy and reliable
Great build quality. It handles large diameter pencils that our old sharpener couldn't touch. The only minor issue is that the crank feels a bit stiff at first, but it loosens up with use.

Best manual sharpener I've owned
The large diameter hole fits my carpenter pencils perfectly. The mechanism is smooth, and the blades seem very sharp. Highly recommend for anyone who uses specialized pencils.

Classroom essential
Bought this for my third-grade classroom. The kids love the minimalist look, and the safety stop prevents them from over-sharpening. Easy to empty the shavings bin too.

No more broken tips
Finally, a manual sharpener that doesn't break the lead inside the pencil. The five settings allow for precise control depending on the pencil brand we are using.

Good value for money
Works exactly as described. It's quiet enough not to disturb others while working. I wish the base had suction cups to keep it steady on glossy desks, but overall very happy.
Q: Can the shavings container be washed?
A: The transparent shavings bin is detachable and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. We recommend avoiding submerging the main unit or the blade assembly in water.
Q: Is replacement blade available if it gets dull?
A: The blades are made of high-quality hardened steel designed for long-term use. Currently, we do not sell separate replacement blades, but the unit is built to last for years under normal use.
Q: Does this sharpener work with colored pencils?
A: Yes, the adjustable coarseness settings make it suitable for both graphite and colored pencils, allowing you to choose a softer point to prevent breakage.
Q: Does it come with a warranty?
A: Yes, the M&G Large Diameter Pencil Sharpener comes with a standard 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Q: What is the maximum pencil diameter this can handle?
A: This model is designed to accommodate standard pencils as well as large diameter pencils up to 12mm, making it great for jumbo pencils used by young children.
