yes, you need to really listen for the blades to lift but it does a great job even on colored pencils.

It has so far. I think they say not to use them in it, but my kids do and it's been fine.

It did everything - regular colored pencils. I never had any soft one's like prismacolors though. Don't buy this machine!

Yes as long as you don't sharpen the pencil too sharp. It has to be dull to work

I don't think it will. My sharpener doesn't even sharpen the regular pencils. It's back in the box, my students refused to use it (was used less than a month and was not abused I guess I should throw it away but it looks good and Spent a lot of money on it).

I've sharpened hundreds of colored pencils with mine, with about one in 15 getting jammed. Unjamming it takes abot 10 seconds. What happens is the lead, because it is softer than graphite breaks off, preventing the next pecil from sharpening properly. Removal of the tip takes about 10 secods total.

I had no trouble using it with inktense pencils, although I didn't use it heavily with them. However, my sharpener only lasted a short while before one of the little plastic gears on the inside cracked, rendering the entire sharpener useless. I'd say, go ahead, but be very gentle - don't ram them into the pencil sharpener. And "clean" it periodically by sharpening graphite pencils.

No. It is a pencil eraser. I use gel pens and it won't touch that ink. Sorry. But it really does erase pencil!

Yes. If you zoom in on the label, you'll see it states that it "Protects pencil, pastel and chalk drawings"I used it today with charcoal as a matter of fact!

It works only with crayola dry erase. My kid used Expo dry erase marker, we couldn't erase ..tried used Expo white board cleaner and other. Looks like monopoly...:-(

It works with colored pencils. I'm not sure if there's a difference watercolor & regular colored pencils.

The slot to incert the pencil has the diameter of a standard pencil - I'm not sure what size exactly it is, but it is the most common pencil size you see. It probably could sharpen thinner pencils, though I'm not sure how well.

We have been using it to sharpen colored pencils for about a month and it is working well, but time will tell!

Yes colored pencils write easily on these labels. They are non-shiny, with a flat finish (like paper) and they work well with printer ink, pencil, pen, etc. Very versatile labels.....and they look great.

Nope. But it is really designed for prismacolors but it works well with all kinds of pencils. Best sharpener I've ever owned! I would've paid twenty dollars for this. But it only cost around six. Well worth it.
