The Review:

The sharpener comes in a semi-clear plastic box and once you get everything unpacked you’ll find the user guide, extra blade and a USB cable for optional power.

 

The sharpener is black and white in color and it’s made of plastic. The sharpener is 4.75 inches long and about 3 inches high and about 2 inches wide. Overall it feels well made, no complaints, it looks nice and it should fit right in on any desk at home or the office.

The sides of the sharpener are a shiny white and one has the Ohuhu logo on it. The bottom has rubber feet to keep it stable and in place while using it and the battery compartment is there that holds four AA batteries.

 

The front is clear, or semi-clear, it’s more of a smoke color and it pops off fairly easily. The cover has a tab on it that goes into the pencil sharpener and acts as a safety mechanism as it won’t run without the cover on as the tab activates it.

 

For testing I used it to sharpen pencils and it worked just fine. To use it you just put the pencil in and push down lightly and it automatically starts to sharpen the pencil.

The front comes off to easily empty the chamber of the shavings or to change the blade.

The sharpener works just fine, no complaints and I love the fact that it’s powered by USB or batteries. I tested it with both power sources and they seemed equal to each other in the strength of the sharpener and how it worked.

The sharpener isn’t loud at all, just a low hum really and it seems to work fine overall.

Pros:

+USB or battery powered

+Comes with extra blade

+Works well

+Built-in safety mechanism

+Simple to use

Cons:

-None really
