Title: X-Acto 1182 - Not a good purchase
Review: I second the reviews of V.Newman and cerbu.- Loose blade/handle design means the pencil is always sharpened off-center.- Suction base is not strong enough to keep the unit firmly attached, even if the surface is smooth and non-pourous, like a laminated desk top.- Our shavings receptacle broke apart after about 1.5 years.Two stars because for a limited time the sharpener gives a substandard, but usable, point to a pencil. I have sometimes resorted to using a pen knife to sharpen pencils rather than hassle with this X-acto sharpener. If you're looking for a good sharpener you can use for years look elsewhere.
