Sakura EE-3000 SumoGrip Electric Eraser, Black

Of all the small battery erasers, this is the best (and most expensive). But it’s worth it. I paint small to medium sized paintings by airbrush and brush in acrylic, and the Sakura is the best. It works well for picking out highlights and when I’m painting a foreground to resemble gravel or stones, it allows me to create layers of color that vary in multiple hues and values. I just wish Sakura still made the blue eraser heads that work so well for erasing acrylic.

Really works well for doing human hair or for hair on animals. It takes a little getting used to it to be able to control the force. Once you are used to the power of it, it’s a dream.

After reading a lot of reviews of various brands of electric erasers, the Sumo gets the best opinions--and after quickly setting it up (put eraser in holder, insert in end, put in 2 AAA batteries--included) I was off erasing colored pencil with no trouble at all.It seems rather "wussy" to use an electric eraser but it's specifically for charcoal, pencil and pastel--any erasable medium. The eraser is precise and removes most or all of the color depending on your medium. You can "draw" with it over a field of laid-down medium. Or remove mistakes very precisely.

Been using it a couple of times per week for over 5 months now. Works well, fast-precise erasing and I like it having replaceable standard batteries. I am still working with the batteries that came with it. No cords or transformers to mess with. No need to try and find the correct rechargeable battery when they go bad.

for artistic applications like penciling an outline for a final pen sketch, this eraser allows for a much finer level of precision than a manual eraser of the same size. no collateral erasure.recommended especially for manga or other smaller scale work. you can also use it for a lot of advanced techniques when working on larger, more formal graphite drawings; youtube those if that's your goal.

Two months ago, I purchased this item, and its initial appearance was excellent. However, it has already ceased to function entirely. A mere two months of use? This is unacceptable. It barely lasted that long, and I only used it briefly on approximately ten occasions. I am deeply disappointed with this.

Our drawing instructor had recommended this motorized eraser for putting highlights on our drawings. He said that there were cheaper brands available, but that many of them will stop when pressure is applied to your drawing. This one works very well and I've never had it stop running because I applied pressure to the eraser tip. Very happy with it.

I was shocked when I saw it take computer ink off of paper. Thick bold letters of computer ink on header titles turned very light . This is meant for dark sketches like pencil and charcoal shading . Says it’s good for graphite too. It doesn’t wobble like the ohuhu knock off . Everything is tight and firm . I was first skeptical of the button because I heard no click before inserting the batteries , but soon found out that the button is perfect and you can’t accidentally press it by resting your finger on it . It’s very powerful and was recommended by ZHC YouTube artist . His looks a little different due to the model he got but it’s by Sakura so it’s the same company. I love this eraser .Only complaint is that it says 20 refills and 2 eraser holders but in actuality ... the 20 erasers counts as 19 refills for first time users . The 2 eraser holders makes you think one is already in the eraser but no so you have to use one of them making it 1 holder refill .Other than that it’s perfect so you should definitely buy it !
