Love these pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Think that these are the most wonderful mechanical pencils ever. First off they look like pens so I like the design. Secondly they write very well without snapping off which is why we usually don't prefer mechanical. My daughter loves them I will be buying more.

Not a mechanical pencil person

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't normally use a mechanical pencil but was excited to try these. I was hoping they would be different than the ones I have tried before. However, they were the same except for one difference. The erase was fantastic. The bright colors were appealing, but I do not like the way it writes. The point is too sharp resulting in broken lead or ripped paper. I found that in order to prevent this, I would have to write more on an angle, which was not comfortable to me. I also found that the lead would easily retract. It did not matter if I had a new piece of lead or not, it did this. I will stick with traditional pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gave these to my 7th grader to start school with. She says they are cool colors and do what they are supposed to do. The lead still breaks as easy as other brands of mechanical pencils.....but these are cool to use!

They Aren't Just for Kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a Graduate Student and have loved using these pencils to take notes and even writing my sermon for church tomorrow. The lead is very smooth and makes writing easy. The fact that these pencils come with lead refills is amazing because that means I can lessen my carbon footprint. The colors make writing fun and you can choose whichever one fits your fancy for the day.

My son LOVES these

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son has Charcot Marie Tooth Disease and has trouble writing but when he finished his homework today, he was telling me how much he loves these pencils. He was explaining that they are easy and comfortable to hold. He also was telling me that the lead is strong and doesn't break easily and erases easily and completely. That news made me so happy as a Mom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I sent three of these pencils to school with my son. He said he loves them. He enjoys they way they feel in his hand... how well they write and was excited that the lead lasted a long time. I am very excited to know he enjoys using these pencils because i know how much he will need to write as a freshman. I would have to say these pencils by far out last the same ole number 2 pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great pencils. I've always loved the Paper Mate Clear point. The Bic Velocity pencils outshine them! They lead is very hard and it is a super smooth write. My teens already have them packed in the backpacks for school.

Smooth writing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are great! I really don't like mechanical pencils for a few reasons. One being that when you use the eraser the lead clicks letting more lead come out and two the pencil usually drags on the paper sometime ripping it. These pencils ran over the paper smoothly without dragging and when I tested out the eraser the lead stayed in place and it erased quite well. I would highly recommend these to anybody who enjoys using pencils. I'm hoping to purchase more for my kids and husband for school.
