Question 1

Can I get replacement grinding stones for this sharpener?

Accepted Answer

No you can not. After confirming my unit was out of warranty ( more than one year) customer service told me the company is not accepting units for repairs/replacement parts  'due to Covid..'. 
BTW, they won't send you new discs to replace yourself since they don't send out any internal parts for customers. 
So if your discs wear out you are out of luck. Perhaps you need a new paperweight or door jam?

Question 2

Does this sharpener only sharpen to a 15 degree edge? Or can it do 20 also?

Accepted Answer

No - No - No - ... as others have mentioned there are several models of the ChefChoice Electric Knife Sharpener. This 15 Trizor XV sharpener -only- gives you a 15 degree edge. If you need or want a sharpener that does both 15 and 20 degree you should be looking at the - Chef’sChoice 1520 AngleSelect Diamond Hone Professional Electric Knife Sharpener for 15 & 20 degree Knives.

Personally, although I have what I consider to be very good knifes for all the cooking I do, they are not in par with the outrageously expensive ( $300+ chef knifes) that  some people own. If I had them I would not cut down a 20 degree knife to 15!  But... since most professional knifes available today tend to come with 15 degree edges and my knifes are not heirloom quality... I used this sharpener to give all my knifes a 15 degree edge. Works great!

Question 3

Will this knife sharpener sharpen small paring  knife?

Accepted Answer

However, realize the blade is so short, the wheel won't start at the hilt. No biggie. Also you are changing the angle of the grind, so you won't be done in a few passes. It's going to take a few minutes and some material. I think the result is worth it! Good luck and don't hurt yourself!

Question 4

Does this sharpen scissors?

Accepted Answer

Knife sharpeners usually don't sharpen scissors because of the very different angels of the blades. There is a sharpener here on Amazon that sharpen both it made by Henslow, and has good reviews.Henslow Knife Sharpener Is 4 In 1 Multi-Function​
