I've been using this pencil since middle school and I've only had one problem and that is the small easer but I don't mind caring a bigger easer. When refilling the lead I don't see why people have problems just shake the pencil after refilling. Overall I love this pencil and Ill keep using it for the rest of my education.
If you try to refill the pencil it will NOT advance the lead. Seems to be a frequent problem in the reviews. Sad thing is that the Provider will not offer a solution or even address the problem.
I have been using Zebra pens and mechanical pencils for years and was somewhat upset when I realized that my local stores no longer carried the mechanical pencils in 0.5mm lead diameter....Thankfully I can still order them on online. Spots may be for squares...but I want thin stripes!
An excellent every day mechanical Pencil that performs above par compared to other mechanical pencils that I have used. Writes well, lead advances well and hols in place very well.
Like many others, I can't advance replacement lead

The title says it all. I refill it properly, according to the video, with the proper size lead and I click and click and nothing. New lead never comes out. I love this pencil, and it's a good thing they aren't ridiculously expensive because whenever I run out of lead I have no choice but to buy a new one. (I buy 2 at a time now.) I don't suppose you'd fix this problem? I'd like to say I'd recommend this product, but with this issue, I can't.
I have various colors of these pencils M301 and I use them for years. I want to ask which leads are inside pencil? I couldn't find the same on market, since thes are the smoothest and the best hardness
I have a dozen of these in various places. I love them. I have large hands and they fit perfectly. The 2 I have in my pocket right now are probably 6 years old and they jave never failed me except for the time I accidentally put 0.7 lead into it, even then I was able to fix it with a needle and some patience.
I really enjoy the pencil but whenever I put lead in the slot, it won't come back out so I can't write with the lead I put in it. Does the lead need to be specifically the zebra 0.7mm lead?
