You can spend thousands (or more) on a Rolex/Omega/IWC/etc.... and hundreds (or more) to maintain it... and, functionally, what do you have? Something that tells time. I see the value in fine timepieces... they're jewelry... they have have a mechanical perfection to them. However, in the end, they tell time... and in most cases, they don't tell time as well as a quartz Timex or smartwatch.
Knives are the same way. You can buy an expensive knife set. You can worry about maintaining them and pay for expensive sharpeners. You can avoid the dishwasher... but functionally, what do you have? A sharp knife. Or... can can buy Mercer or Victorinox... and a cheap, pull-thru sharpener... and put them in the dishwasher... and, functionally, what do you have... a sharp knife.
Not saying one choice is the right one... but remember the goal. My experience with friends and relatives... the ones with the 'nicest' knives use them the least. The people who can actually cook, realize that they're tools and functionality matters.

The problem is with the way these sharpen the blade. They work in the end, but they take off too much material and lead to the knives lives being shortened.
For cheaper knives buy this (or any other pull through) and let it rip. I wouldn't really worry about screwing up common retail knives with this because they are pretty replaceable.

It will make your knife really sharp but removes a lot more material than other methods.
I use these in a commercial setting and run thru knives weekly after they get stripped down far enough.

I own both stones and a diamond plate, but can only think of a couple times when I seriously needed either over the past several years, and almost always due to abuse or mishandling on my part.
that said - this is a good price for the convenience if you do actually need a sharpener, and most people will be fine with one of these as long as they're not using it in the place of a honer.
