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.

Very professional
As an accountant I’m constantly using pencils to make notes and come up with quick figures. These are very comfortable to use and they look much more professional than the bright colored ones my kids use for school. I’m very pleased and will continue to use

Pencil perfect
This PM ComfortMate Ultra pencil was a pleasant surprise to me. I'm not one to use pencils but was glad I had the ComfortMate at my fingertips. It was smooth writing from the beginning. Easy to see on all sorts of paper. Yes, I even tried it on the back of a restaurant receipt and it was an easy read. These will definitely be a continued favorite in our house.

So convenient for Back to School!
I absolutely love this pencil set! Not only are the pencils comfortable to hold and easy to write with, it comes with everything you need! I've never seen a pencil kit that included both extra lead and the erasers! The erasers are in a secure tube so they won't scatter in my pencil case or in my desk drawer. This is such a handy combination that I wish more brands would...

Writes smoothly
I’m fussy about the pens I use...I admit it! But these fit the bill for me. They are a comfortable size, with a soft grip. And it writes so smoothly, and without smudging. Thanks, Paper Mate for another great pen!

It's a pencil
I take a lot of notes, but don't really like writing in pen so I'm always on the look-out for a good mechanical pencil. This pencil is fine, the grip makes it comfortable to hold. I didn't rate it higher because the pencil is so light it feels like I'm going to crush it in my hand. I like something with a heftier feel in my hand.

Comfortable
These mechanical pencil is very comfortable and easy to remove the eraser to refill the lead. It has a cushion grip and retracts the lead that looks like a pen. The pencil set comes with a refill of erasers and lead. I love how comfortable and easy to use these pencils are.

Paper Mate pencil
The pencil is easy to hold and use with my arthritis. It is thick enough for comfort.

My kids love these pencils
My 9 and 11 year old love using these pencils. They are so much better than the regular yellow pencils. The lead is easy to use and install. I think my only complaint is that the erasers don't last that long but they do offer replacement erasers that are easy to install as well.

Comfortable Grip
This is one of the most comfortable pencils I have used. It writes well and smooth. Its only downfall is that it’s eraser is hard to use. You have to put more pressure than other pencils, and this causes the lead to extend. Very comfortable to write with.

Awesome Pencil!
I love these mechanical pencils as they have a really nice grip so it feels like I'm holding something more and fits better in my hand. They are very easy to use and the lead holds up very well as I have not had any break at all as of yet. I love that they come with not only extra lead but also extra erasers! That is huge, normally you only get extra lead and by that ti...

love using mechanical pencils
I personally love using mechanical pencils. This comes with refills of erasers and lead. I did find that the erasers are on the dry side which gives the texture a rough feeling while erasing. When I say rough, some erasers are softer, so it's easier on the paper when you're erasing. It can rip the paper if you use it too hard. I myself do not use a lot of pressure when ...

Nice grip!
These pens are a really great thing to have on hand when you need to write down your thoughts. The grips are nice and soft and provide that comfort you need. It writes really fine and nice. It's a very smooth writing utensil!

Everything works great.
Great bang for your buck. You get two pencils, refills on erasers and lead for a really reasonable price. The handle itself is slip resistant and comfortable. It is very easy to refill and you get a long last per lead piece. I probably won't have to buy a refill for 5 or 6 months.

I can't believe it's not a pen!
I love these mechanical pencils and that's a lot to say seeing I've been a pen person for over 20 years. They are so comfortable and they glide across the paper with ease. I can't believe I'm not writing with an actual pen. The added bonus- The eraser actually works! I received this item complimentary to review.

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.

Best pencil yet.
Very comfortable to hold. But more important, you can control the lead very well. It doesn’t break off at all like all of the other pencils of this type. The erasers are larger than most and the pencils come with replacement erasers. I’ll be a user from now on.

Bigger lead is perfect
The bigger lead is much better than the thin that I keep breaking

Good value
I like them better than the slightly more expensive ones. Same functionality, perfect size for me to grip, and the grip doesn’t peel off like the other ones.
