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.

Love these pencils
Ordered these ComfortMate ULTRA mechanical pencils and everyone in our department loves them. Only one draw back - we need to order eraser refills by the pack.

Great Pencil
Just started using this pencil a few days ago and really like it so much! The 7mm lead is nice and strong and gives an even line without breaking. The rubberized grip is very comfortable to hold. And I like the color too! If you are looking for a really nice mechanical pencil at an affordable price, this one could be the right one for you!

Tip inserts
The pencil set is a good value. They operate well. The biggest problem is that the insert guide that keeps the lead at the tip stable popped out. This renders the pencil useless due to the lead continuously breaking. You can not reinstall the guide. Good pencil except for that problem.

Best Mechanical Pencil
I have tried all sorts of pens and pencils and primarily use mechanical pencils. This is the best. I write a lot as a student. I can't believe it was so affordable. I am going back to get more.

Great mechanical pencil!
I do a lot of crossword puzzles and sudoku puzzles and the pencils with the thin, .5 mm lead just weren't cutting it for me. The lead would constantly break and many felt cheap and uncomfortable in my hand. This pencil is wonderful, not only did it come with thicker, sturdier lead that has yet to break, it came with lead refills AND eraser refills! Love that because wit...

Great value
These pencils are not cheap...not in price nor durability. They stand up to the abuse of a 6th grader very well, where others have failed. Great value for the price you pay.

Pencil wrote well
I found this item in the clearance bins. I usually love pencils like this so I decided to try it. I found it very light weight and easy to write with. I didn't notice the lead breaking that quickly. It wrote very smoothly and I had no problems with it. If even erased nicely which is good for me because I do a lot of erasing I did notice that the erase did go down some w...

Favorite!
Love these pencils! Can't keep enough of them around because everyone loves them and they end up missing. Write well, great eraser. Some mechanical pencil's lead continue to break while writing... not with this one. I will continue to buy them.

Perfect Paper Mate Mechanical Pencil
I have always used a mechanical pencil for writing documents. There are mechanical pencils and then there happens to be the best, Paper Mate Mechanical Pencil. It has gotten better over the years with the added comfort form. The form relieves my hand of cramps and fatigue after long writing sessions.

Good pencil for school
My son uses these pencils for school and really likes them. They are more durable than some of the others that we have tried, and he likes the grip.
