Summary: Sharp
Comment: I needed a sharpener that did all my knives including the serrated edges. This is it! No effort required. Just glide the knife edges through. Would recommend this product. Even though I balked at paying the asking price, it was still cheaper than replacing my good cutlery set.

Summary: Maybe I'm doing something wrong but...
Comment: ... I don't find the sharpener to do that great a job. I have used Lansky sharpeners for years and recently acquired a Chef's Choice 120. Here are my impressions:
PROS:
- Does an OK job for the person with no sharpening skills whatsoever.
CONS:
- You have to get the timing just right when drawing knives through the unit, otherwise the grind is uneven.
- If you accidentally allow the point of the knife to dip down upon withdrawing, it will excessively grind the tip.
- The rubber feet do not do an adequate job of stabilizing the unit. It will creep when it is in use. I had to place mine on a piece of latex drawer liner.
- Finally, and this is what I dislike most of all - it leaves longitudinal scratches along the length of the knife. The scratches are not deep but they ARE noticeable.
My advice - Get a sharpening stone and learn to use it or if you don't feel comfortable with establishing sharpening angles, get a Lansky or Gatco sharpener. Stay away from this unit.

Summary: total disappointment
Comment: Worst purchase I have ever made. Wheel fell off of first model with first use. I should have taken a refund, but thought I'd give it another chance. Have had this model for several years, but can never get anything decently sharp, consequently very little use.
Called customer service today, indicating that this has had almost no use. They politely offered to check it over or repair it for standard repair fees. It never ceases to amaze me, how people can try to sell you a third time with a straight face, even offered a replacement, at a fee in excess of $100.
There is also a lot of mixed signals as to whether to use stage one or not.
In short, you feel you are using the item incorrectly, looking for burr etc. I even suggested that this item might be misaligned since first one literally came loose , and they may both be from same lot.(small cutlery shop, now out of business). Not even a suggestion to check the lot number to see if anything was defective from the beginning.
Very courteous, but non-responsive customer service, hoping to profit from their mistakes.

Summary: Amazing knife sharpener!
Comment: I've tried a host of different types of knife sharpeners over the years with very little luck. The Chef's Choice sharpener is amazing! I can have sharp knives everyday; what a difference!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A solid, solid sharpener
Comment: The only reason this doesn't get 5 stars is that, at the end of the day, it's still over $120 (at least when I purchased it) for a knife sharpener. The quality of the item, so far, has been great. I have no complaints, the ease of use is there, and what little instructions you need are very clear. If money is not an object for you, you can pretty much call this a 5-star product.
