Great writing utensils!!

from Georgetown, IL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am always on the hunt for great writing utensils for both my children, as well as myself since I work in an office setting. I take a lot of notes and like to have mechanical pencils on hand because they are easy to write with and I do not have to worry about sharpening a regular pencil to jot down my thoughts. This is one of my favorite brands by far, they always put out quality products and these mechanical pencils are some of the better ones of the market. Other mechanical pencils have often broken in a very short time frame, I have not had to deal with the pencil breaking at all with these. One of my favorite details of this product is that it is extra smooth, and really writes a lot smoother than any other pencils I have used. I love the bold colors that they chose to feature on the handles, it jazzes the office up for sure. The colors are fun and inspiring, and I appreciate the bold color writing that it leaves behind when you write with it. The pencil marks are dark, and consistent and are not faded nor splotchy at all. I also get absolutely no budging or smearing with these pencils like I do with other brands. It's important that my notes are kept safe from smears, because I like to keep them for a few months while I am working. When I need to erase some writing or notes, it erases easily as well and does not leave behind any mess on the paper. I will be buying these from now on, as other brands have constantly disappointed me, these are great!! I will recommend these to all of my friends and family members that are office supply needy, or those that just fully enjoy great utensils!

Exactly What I'd Want From A Mechanical Pencil
on September 22, 2019
Posted by: key82
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils get the job done, well. They're exactly what I would want and expect. They provide a nice smooth writing stroke that glides well on several types of paper. But the lead is also sturdy, so it doesn't break easily — while writing, during transport, and when the pencil is dropped. The eraser works well, erases fairly thoroughly.

Mechanical Pencils
on March 17, 2023
Posted by: Morgan
BIC Mechanical pencils are great! I use them everyday. These pencils are very handy and you don't have to sharpen them. The only downside of Mechanical pencils are is the lead breaks very easily. Also They're different kinds of lead, so if you have to refill your pencil you have to get a certain type of lead. Mechanical pencils write very well on paper, the print comes out really well. On the bright side you don't have to sharpen the pencil.

Awesome Mechanical Pencils!
on May 2, 2023

This product is 0.5 mm with a lot of precision. The lead doesn't break muck unless the pencil is dropped. This can last for a long time and you can just refill lead to keep using the pencil.

Love mechanical pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love mechanical pencils, these xtra smooth pencils worked just as expected and lasted a pretty long time didn't break as much. Im defiantly keeping these and buying extra refill lead when needed which probably won't be for a while.
I would recommend this to a friend!
