LOVE the size!!!
So I purchased them quite awhile ago. So I’ve been using them on all my doodling and cards etc. The size is REALLY fun to use and store and take places. And SO many colors!!! Love. Love. Love.

Rip-off.
Bought these in store, and NO WHERE on the box does it say these are mini pencils!!! I use colored pencils a lot, and it was finally time to buy a new box, BUT THIS IS A RIP OFF. I have never been upset with a Crayola product before now, but this is outright a JOKE.

Feels like a scam
Honestly so disappointed that the pencils are so small, there’s no indication on the box that they’re so small! I feel tricked, honestly.

Dissatisfied Purchase
It looks like Crayola hasn’t changed a thing even though the complains go back at least for a year. No mention on the package of the small size. And the solution for knowing the color of the crayon is to match a swatch to the 64 colors on the back of box?? I’m extremely disappointed with this product.

Great for 2d Grade Class, Unusable for Anyone Else
I bought this in a store where there is no mention on the box of these pencils being 3.5 inches, which is essentially unusable for adults. The box makes the pencils look much bigger than they actually are. Additionally, there is no label on the pencils for what color is which. The only way to figure out the color is to attempt to match the pencil color to the one lab...

Deceptive packaging
Purchased a box for my kids. Got home and let them open it to color, turns out they are not full sized. They are about the size of a golf pencil. No where on the box does it say "small" or "short". I figured they would have been the same height as the box. Very deceptive packaging. They use little stands at the bottom of the box so they can use a bigger box to fool peo...

Crayola is Scamming its Customers
Deceptively packaged. Actual box does NOT state that these are "Short" pencils.

Misleading packaging and title
Nowhere on the box/title does it say that these colored pencils are LESS THAN 4 INCHES LONG. My students will sharpen these once and they’re as good as trash. I’m unsure why Crayola even sells colored pencils so small? A standard crayon is larger than these pencils! I ordered 8 boxes!

Disappointed
I am so disappointed in Crayola! I was excited to use these with my new coloring book but, when I pulled them out I was surprised at the size. The box says nothing about them being tiny. I lost my desire to color at that moment. I see others have had this same comment with no clear resolution to the issue. Shame on you Crayola I expect more.

Crayola isn't color blind friendly anymore
Not only are the pencils 1/3 the size they used to be, They still cost just as much as what the full size ones used to cost... the kids that used to eat crayons in the back of the classroom took their passion with them to the adult world, and got a job working for Crayola. Clearly eating all those crayons really messed up their head... (DO NOT EAT THE CRAYONS)

Inconsistent
Very disappoint. No where on the box does it mention these are short and since I was using them for adult drawing/coloring that makes a big difference. Then as I use them the coloring is horrid. Some barely color at all. I have never been so let down by a crayola product in all my life
