    How hard is it to use an ordinary pencil sharpener?
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.

    Perhaps he/she is disabled and can't use a manual one? I work with a guy who lost an arm in a motorcycle accident and for him, very simple things are very difficult. A normal pencil sharpener would be impossible for him. If you can't be helpful, don't post.

    As for electric pencil sharpeners, if you try a Google search there are loads, ranging for £7 to £44 from numerous sellers. I can't say which is best, but Amazon sell them as well and there you have user reviews to help you decide.

    Very, if you have a certain level of any of cerebral palsy, athritis, motor neuron disease or many other conditions. Very, if you are an amputee.

    How hard is it to make a recommendation or not post if you don't have a recommendation?

    My recommendation: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Jakar-Electric-Pencil-Sharpener/dp/B000NM9ARE

    Hello MikiN

    Welcome to the MSE forum.:hello:

    I'll move your thread to the 'I wanna' board, where hopefully it will get some helpful and less critical posts.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Regards
