Great product
I received these in time to write out my Christmas cards. They worked well and were easy for these old hands to grip. And I also love them for all my crosswords puzzles. Easy to erase my mistakes. Like the clear barrel on them as well so you can see how much lead is left.

Best Pencil Ever!
The Paper Mate ClearPoint Mechanical pencil is my favorite. It writes smoothly and boldly, yet it is easy to erase. Unlike many mechanical pencils, it is durable. The best feature is the side button for advancing lead, so lead does not advance while erasing. I am a teacher and I use this pencil all the time. I even got several other teachers "hooked" on this pencil. Sev...

Great pen for a decent price
Good pencils with a nice grip and white, smudgeproof eraser. They write well and are easy to erase if need be. I like that they come in various colors, some more masculine and some more femanine.

Needed by 9
I have a 9 year old son who will only write with this pencil. It's difficult enough to get any written word out of children now adays, so the fact that he will with this is GREAT!!

Groovy little pencil!
My husband asked me to pick up some of these after trying one out. We really like the feel of the pencil in our hands, feels just like a pen! The twist-up eraser is nice, too. Bright, fun colors but I would have liked some in black or blue, just to have something a little more business'like. I don't know if my local Staples just didn't have them or if Paper Mate just do...

I simply love these pencils
I absolutely love these pencils! Because I write with a heavy hand,I need a stronger led than a 5 or 6. The eraser is a bonus too. I like the way you can twist it up to use more. You get more with these pencils, not only the led being stronger, but you get more led on the side of the package! My grandchildren use only these mechanical pencils. They are in high school, a...

Best mechanical pencil ever!
This pencil writes very well. The lead is held in place securely and never splinters off. It fits comfortably between your fingers because of the thin design and the rubbery surface keeps it from slipping.

Love this mechanical pencil
I love the colors of the pencil ( 2 per package) and the eraser feature. It has a relatively long eraser as mechanical pencils typically have very small erasers which wears down quickly. I also love that it uses 0.7mm as the writing is much heavier than the 0.5mm. and easy to see.

Best Mechanical Pencils
These are the best mechanical pencils I have ever used. For the most part, these are the only mechanical pencils i use because I prefer them the most over any other kind. I love how the eraser is longer, so it lasts much longer, and it is so easy to add more lead into the pencil. It is very easy to use these pencils for months on months (as long as you don't lose them) ...

Best mechanical pencil!
I have used these pencils for several years and have not ever found any better. With an extra large eraser that twists up as needed and a barrel that holds plenty of extra lead it is always the go to pencil for work. And since it comes with replacement eraser and lead I am always prepared. Love all the color options too!

Does not cut it!
One of the main reasons for using a pencil is the ability to erase! The eraser will not stay out when used. Because it is a twist up, it wants to retract when you use it.

Metal tip broke
Metal tip broke after the first use :(. These are my favorite. My other one purchased elsewhere so far has lasted several months. I needed refills and thought of buying more will the extra accessories. I would only recommend it because the others have worked well for me.
