Simple, lightweight, yet rugged
Nice, simple mechanical pencil. The pointy tip can retract into itself so when putting into a shirt pocket, it does not poke. Best part is the erasers are large size and it comes with extra erasers and extra 0.7 leads.

Eraser is TERRIBLE
The eraser on these pencils are terrible. Ned to replace with a typical pink eraser.

Paper Mate Mechanical Pencils
Overall well rounded writing utensil.
I especially like the oversize lead and twist eraser.
The only drawback is the cumbersome means of advancing the lead, the barrel sometimes gets caught on your hand.

Great Product
I purchased this product on a whim as I was heading to an evening event for the Manufacturers Association of Pennsylvania where Dr. Ben Carson was the keynote speaker. I especially liked the colors and the big eraser as I tend to need to erase allot. I carried one in my shirt pocket and one in my jacket pocket. The number 7 lead is perfect when I am trying to take notes...

Great deal
Great package deal. Package came with 2 lead pencils, extra lead, and extra erasers for $3.00. This was a great deal for my children who are always wanting lead pencils for school. The pencils are not the cheap throw away kind. They are durable and an excellent deal!

Paper Mate .7mm Pencil
This is the 5th 4 pack that I purchased. I like the feel of the pencil more than any other than I purchased. I am addicted to Sudoku and the comfort of pencil let's me use it at any angle. I feel lost without them. I have them in three rooms. I wish that you could buy the erasers separately.

Lead Does not come out consistently
Unfortunately, these pens did not function well at all. The lead did not always come out when I pumped the top and I had to shake it a lot to get it to perform. Both pens in the pack had the same problem.

Good Mechanical Pencil
I was looking for a mechanical pencil with a soft cushion. This one is ok, but I have had better ones with softer cushioning. Otherwise, it is a good pencil. The only reason I would not recommend it is that for me the cushion is not soft enough nor is it low enough on the pen for my writing style.

Will definitely buy this product again!
Will never go back to regular wooden pencils again! Nice to always have lead right there at your fingertips.

My new favorite mechanical pencil!
I am a musician who writes music, takes notes, fills in forms and calendars and I am always looking for a balanced, clean, reliable, good-feeling pencil with which to write because I do allot of it! I seek these pencils out and don't enjoy using any of my older ones, when I can't locate one. Because of this, I purchased two more to make sure that I have one within arm's...

Best I've used
Buy many of these mechanical pencils for everyday use. This one is comfortable, no problem extending lead and does not smeer.

comfort and feel are good;
This pencil wastes lead. Constantly throwing away approximately four-tenths of an inch of lead. This could be due to internal breakage.

"Not a good Purchase"
I was really disappointed that one of the pencils came out of the package broke at the top and the other one as soon as I went to use it, it broke as well. Poor quality pencils but not worth the price for them. Not a high quality pencil.
