Presto 08800 EverSharp Electric Knife Sharpener, 2-Stage System, Silver/Black

Does not sharpen well. Just ok

This product appeared good, however, when using with minimal pressure the stones kept stopping. Useless.

Product sourced from Amazon USA so had to buy a UK plug socket adapter. Once fitted the sharpener worked for a few seconds then stopped! Changed the plug fuse, checked external wiring. Nil result.

Apparently the time for returning this item has passed but this was bought as a Christmas present so opened only on Christmas Day. We were horrified to discover a US plug on it, since there was no mention on the seller's page that it was for use in US only. so it is very dangerous. If we had decided to change the plug for a three pin pug it would have caused a fire. This is totally unacceptable and VERY DANGEROUS and I want my money refunded.

It should be clear that this is a US product with NO UK plug. Very poor advertising

Blew up the first time it was used

Bought this after my last electric knife sharpner died. Good reviews so I ordered it from amazon.co.uk. The product is for US use only so why is it even on the UK sight or at least carries a warning that it is 120V AC not 120/240V AC. Waste of money and my time. I know I should have looked and seen it was a US seller but it was on the uk site with no voltage warnings so why not just buy. Will be more careful in future.

The Presto 08800 EverSharp Electric Knife Sharpener is an absolute game-changer in the kitchen! This compact and easy-to-use sharpener works wonders, restoring my dull knives to like-new sharpness in just a few minutes. The 2-stage sharpening system ensures that my knives get a perfect edge every time—Stage 1 is for coarse sharpening, and Stage 2 is for fine honing. I love how fast and convenient it is. No more struggling with manual sharpening or messing around with stones. The machine is quiet, stable, and doesn’t take up much counter space. The sharpness it delivers is impressive; even my oldest, most worn-out knives are now cutting through food with ease. It’s also super safe to use, with non-slip feet and simple instructions. I highly recommend this sharpener for anyone looking to keep their kitchen knives in top condition. It’s a great investment that pays off every time you use it! 🔪✨

Delivered with 110 volt plug (US). Does not work and does not follow EU standard

I read all the reviews before buying and just had to write my review (my first ever of any product). I have worked in kitchens in the past and prepare meals regularly. I am a cajun cook and we chop crazy amounts of onions, celery, garlic, bell peppers and everything else from the garden. I also have a catfish pond, and I need a very sharp filet knife. So needless to say I have a drawer full of old filet and chef knives of varing quality and dullness. I have tried so many sharpening techniques and nothing I tried could restore the original sharpness without spending a ton of time an energy. Well let me tell you, all the positive reviews are correct, this is a marvelous little gem and its the best $24 dollars I ever spent. Less than the new knife I was going to buy. I have knives of every metal imaginable and this little baby put an edge on them that is crazy sharp. I had to warn the wife about how sharp the knives were. Before if a burgular would come at me with one of my knives I would have died laughing, now I have to worry how they are stored in the drawer so not to accidently cut myself rummaging around in there. Trust me, if you need your knives sharper than this baby gives you then you just are plain crazy. I believe I saw my onions cowering in the fridge! I had to cook a big seafood gumbo with extra onions and celery just to celebrate my new sharp knives. This baby gets The Cajun seal of approval!!! Have fun and be safe with your like new sharpness! ***Update*** It has now been almost three months since I first sharpened my knives and wrote this review. I use my knives everyday and they have held their edge ever since, this sharpener is just collecting dust now because I have had no need to resharpen them. I of course use a good piece of steel to keep a razor edge but otherwise I don't foresee having to resharpen for awhile yet. ***Update 2*** Its has been over 6 months now. My knives are sharp as razors with only two sharpening times. And they get heavy use, cleaning huge catfish from my pond and also chicken and all sorts of heavy kitchen use. Coupled with a nice piece of steel this sharpener is so good I just can't live without it. With so much usuage out of my knives and only having to sharpen 2 times in the last 6 months I would have to say it is the best 24$ I have ever spent! ***Update 3*** It has now been 2 years since purchasing this excellent knife sharpener. It is funny, I took this sharpener down from the top shelf to sharpen my 12" chef knife before cutting up a ton of meat to make sausage and I had to wipe all the dust off of it before using it, that is how infrequent I have to sharpen my knifes, and I use my knives for heavy duty use! Love this sharpener! Get yourself a decent piece of steel, a good chopping board and you got it made. ***Update 4*** It now has been 4 years! It is funny 2 years ago my wife bought me this exact sharpener by accident. I had it on my Amazon wish list...for review purposes and she didn't even realize I had one, that is how infrequently I have to sharpen my chef knives. I kept a hold of it to see how long my original one would last, well I am tired of waiting, I am bringing the unopened 2 year old sharpener to work today to sell it. And I do a lot of cutting and I just took it down from the cabinet and had to dust if off again to see how well it worked before letting go with the unopened one. Knives didn't need it just wanted to 'top em off', all like new again. *Note to commenter, all my knives in use are in their original cases, or original sleeve. Next year will be my 5 year review. The person I am selling the unopened sharpener to is a hard core hunter and trapper. We will see how it handles. Stay tuned.
