Reviewing the Swingline Optima Electric Pencil Sharpener

• Whether you’re using art pencils or regular Number 2 ones, the Optima can help you out. This sharpener can accommodate 6 different sizes of pencil so no matter which writing instrument you’re using, chances are this device can take care of it.

• The Optima works quickly so you can get back to writing and/or drawing as soon as possible. This little machine has a very powerful motor and carbon steel blades so you can get your pencils sharpened in what seems like the blink of an eye. And this sharpener operates quietly so you can use it around others and not need to worry about disturbing them.
• You don’t need to worry about this device overheating because the motor has a thermal cutoff feature. The machine will shut down when necessary to avoid overheating.
• The Optima has a roomy shavings cup that can hold a lot of waste. The cup is made out of translucent plastic so you’ll be able to see when it’s getting full. Also, the cup is spill-proof so you won’t accidentally wind up with shavings all over the place.
