This is an electric pencil sharpener, a bonus for the first-grade annual subscription campaign. Includes a USB cable. I used it a few times, but the electric power was unexpectedly strong, and the light that came on during use scared my child, so I stopped using it immediately. I removed the shavings, but there are some small stains that I couldn't wipe off completely. Batteries are not included. Please understand that this is a used item and a children's product before purchasing. Thank you for looking.
