The Lead just keeps growing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although these pencils are fun colors and attractive to kids - I really dislike the waste of lead that happens - you see, like most kids - my children use the eraser almost as much as the pencil. And when they press the eraser down on the paper - oops! The lead just keeps growing out of the pencil. There must be some better design! I ended up having to remove the erasers from all the pencils before they used them again.

Nice but awkward

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like that it's a thicker pencil and it's harder to break. I really like the vibrant unique colors especially the yellow. The writing is smooth and comfortable. I took off a star because when you use the eraser the the lead can fall out sometimes. I know that to include the eraser it has to be where it is but most people don't use the eraser so I think it should be removed. I also find that the led breaks very easily. I don't push the led out far and it still finds a way to break. Overall, it's a strong pencil but without the eraser and constant led breaking this will be my go to pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 2 boys. One is 18 and the other is 12. The 18 year old immediately opened the box and started writing and said that he thought they were smooth writing and that the eraser worked perfectly and left no remaining marks! He said he'd bring them to college. The 12 year old said the pencil 'felt good holding on to'. We will purchase in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved these pencils! Smooth execution and long lasting lead.The only thing I would change would be the eraser because it gives off a strange smell when you use it.

These are a hit with my kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these to my kids when they started school. My daughter absolutely loves them. She loves the colors and was even able to choose her favorite one. The lead seems to be better than that of regular lead pencils and the erasers are awesome. They completely erase whatever mistakes are made. I'm definitely happy that my kids get excited about their writing assignments because of these lead pencils.

Great school supply

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has moved up in school where she needs a mechanical pencil. In the past, the lead would break before even finished the required page. The pencil lead would also smear. Not so with these! The lead is holding up great to the stress of a 5th grader and her school work and doodling. And no more gray fingers from the smear. Thank you! Great buy!
