Every bit as good as a wood pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these are great for the teenagers. My kids love them. The lead is much stronger than other mechanical pencils that I have purchased and the barrel feels very sturdy and not flimsy like most. The writing is smooth and legible not clumpy and so light you can't read it. These come in many colors so all the kids have options. Also, they are refillable which is a major bonus because the refills come with them! I would recommend these a thousand times over other brands because they are that good.

Very Precise, Love the Extra Erasers
on September 6, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Most mechanical pencils either don't come with extras, or only a small supply of extra leads. These packs came with a generous amount of extra lead, PLUS a supply of erasers! The erasers on mechanical pencils are usually pretty small, and too soft to do much with, but these are great. The lead is smooth and though it does break off every once in awhile, it does it no more than any other mechanical pencils. I will definitely buy these again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that they never need sharpening! They have great colors and write very smoothly. They erase easily and cleanly. These are perfect for older students that might take a lot of notes and tests.

Great pencils
on September 6, 2016

from Lansing, MI
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these to my son to use since I don't use pencils that often, but I did try them just so that I could make a full honest review. First thing about these pencils that my son feels is kind of a deal breaker if the pencil doesn't have this is the side click to extract more lead. He loves these kinds of pencils because with the standard pencils when you erase you might accidentally click it and lead comes out, with these you don't have to worry about that. He said they write about the same as any other #2 mechanical pencil but he did notice the lead didn't break as easy. I think they do the job great! I don't know if you will ever be able to replicate the gritty wood feeling of a standard #2 pencil but this does a really good job plus you don't have to sharpen it. I bought a whole bunch of these for school if that says anything :)
