Best Mechanical Pencil Set
This mechanical pencil set is the one and only that we use in the office. The erasers on these are able to twist up giving extra long life without having to change them or have the eraser pop out. Love that the set comes with everything needed to keep the pencil refilled for a very long time. Lightweight and colorful. I do wish that I could select my colors at check out...

VERY PRECISE
I HAVE USED MANY MECHANICAL PENCILS IN THE MANY YEARS OF ACCOUNTING. THE FINE POINT AND EASE OF EARASING HELPS WITH THE PROCESS IN KEEPING ALL OF THE NUMBERS PRECISALLY LINED UP. THE LEAD DOES NOT SMEAR WHEN EARASED. THE COLOR IS NOT TO LIGHT LIKE SOME OF THE LEADS THAT YOU HAVE TO PRESS HARDER BUT THEN THE LEAD BREAKS. THESE ARE JUST RIGHT FOR WRITING ANYTHING FROM ACC...

Mechanical Pencil
I bought this for my daughter because some of her classmates were using this product. She now uses it to do her homework daily and tells me how she uses at school. From my perspective if she's enjoying doing class work and homework with this mechanical pencil...Hoorah! I love the fact that my daughter can do her work and I don't hear complaints about how it broke or t...

Love these pencils
These mechanical pencils are very easy to use and they include the extra lead and erasers. This is a very good deal. The mechanical pencil that I am using at work I have been using for quite a while and haven't had to replace the lead nor the eraser. I see these mechanical pencils lasting a long time. I have brought all the other mechanical pencils and so far I like ...

Great Pencil!
These are our favorite mechanical pencils around the office! Whenever I buy a pack they get borrowed and go missing right away! They write real smooth and the adjustable eraser lasts way longer than the typical mechanical pencil eraser. It's also nice that the eraser and part that feeds the lead out are separate so you aren't wasting lead while you're erasing. The ri...

Best Pencils!
I absolutely love these pencils. I however dislike the price. I had a coupon sent to me making these under $1. I do all my answer keys with these pencils for my algebra and geometry classes.

Paper Mate Mechanical Pencil
This is definitely my favorite when it comes to pencils. I use pencils most of the time at work. You can always have a nice sharp point (without running to the sharpener all the time) and the lead advance is just a click away right where your fingers are while writing. No more fumbling around to advance the lead from the top of the pencil or to have to twist the pencil....

Great product
These dividers are easy to use. Printing and applying the labels is super simple and takes very little time. The finished product always looks great! We will continue to purchase and use these dividers for our business needs.

Love this mechanical pencil
perfect size pencil for holding in hand. The led is smooth and not too thin--it doesn't break often if at all. The eraser is fabulous. The white eraser completely erases things so that they don't have dark marks beside the erased spot. I love that the clicking action to advance the pencil is on the handle and not on the end of the barrel of the pencil. The eraser is amp...

Nice successor for the LOGO IV
This pencil has a nice grip but most importantly a wide diameter soft eraser!

I would buy this pencil again.
I love this pencil. I have tried many other ones but this one is great. It writes so smoothly. The eraser is one that you turn and is quite large. No small erasers to deal with anymore.
