My Daughters New Favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are my daughters new favorite pencils! She started school out this year ready to experience them. She has never liked regular pencils and has always had a knack for mechanicals. These are the best! Strong lead, smooth writing, great erasers. Everything she values in a pencil. As a 7th grader she uses them everyday!

Best mechanical pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great. I've used many kinds of mechanical pencils and these are my fave! The thickness of the barrel is perfect for your grip and the rubber grip is comfy. I've found the thinner barrel ones make my hand ache after only a short times using them. Also, one of the most important factors to me is the lead thickness. .9mm is perfect! Not too thin that the lead is constantly breaking and not too thick that you feel like you're writing with a dull instrument. My kids love these too. I bought 2 packs so we all have a few and then bought a bunch of extra refill packs. I'm never sharpening another #2 pencil again. I These are great.

no smudging!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best mechanical pencil ever! I'm usually a die hard old school regular pencil kind of lady. But this is different. Pros: -The lead doesn't smudge easy like with standard No. 2 pencils and other mechanical pencils -Isn't too thin for holding like other mechanical pencils, has a thicker body -feels great in my hand while writing -has a drip pad! -Erases nicely Cons: Haven't noticed any! Even my kids love them and have been drawing more because they enjoy holding them and using them. My son is a lefty and it's a huge deal to not have it smudge while he's writing and drawing!

Bic is our favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to hold out on giving our kids the pencils until school actually started. The first day I gave them each their favorite color bogey we're stoked to have new nice pencils. I think the way the pencil feels in their hands makes such a difference in how they view writing. It's a smooth pencil that feels like they just want to write more!

Smooth writing and fun to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like how smooth the mechanical pencils felt on a variety of types of paper. It also felt comfortable in my hand, which made writing for longer periods of time easier. My only complaint is that the lead seems to wear down quickly (quicker than the average lead pencil) and it concerns me that refills might be needed more often. However, considering how much I enjoyed using the pencils, I'd still purchase and recommend these.

Great back to school tools

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the mechanical pencils appeal to people of all ages, not just students. I love the bright colors and split them among my kids. The lead is a great size for people who write hard and it holds well under pressure. I'd definitely recommend this to family and friends.

Big hit with my classmates
on August 30, 2016
Posted by: maddydi
from Bonney Lake, WA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I passed them out to a few classmates who sat around me and told them to give me feedback. I heard it wrote darker than the original bic one classmate was using and another classmate felt it was comfortable to use. They were interested in the concept of bzzagent and planned on signing up. Once I told them it was a no pressure site where you tried out new products and gave your opinion and the opinions of others.
