[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils definitely live up to the name! My son is very rough with his writing utensils & he's very pleased that they don't break easily. He could definitely tell a huge difference in lead strength from his original mechanical pencil to this extra strong one. We will definitely be purchasing these for school supplies from now on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these BIC Xtra Strong Break Resisting Leads. My 13 year old son prefers "mechanical pencils" over wooden pencils and BIC is the brand we normally purchase. This 10 pack comes in a variety of colors. They write very smoothly, erase easily and the lead doesn't break easily. I highly recommend these for students because they are sturdy and work well. Will continue to purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the designs on these pencils and they work great too! They come pre loaded with lead and they have are just the right size that I can grip them easily to write with. I have found that I can do much better art when using lead pencils and these are just the right size lead. I can easily draw details and the eraser works great too for errors. I love the colors and designs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this item a few weeks ago and the first thing I noticed was the beautiful variety of colors. The lead is stronger so it didn’t snap when I put pressure on the paper. My friends who I lent a pencil to also loved it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils are great. I love the different color designs and I love the way they write and feel. They are easy to hold and use.The extra strong break resistant lead writes nicely and has not broken on me yet.b

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To me all mechanical pencils are all about the same. However, these seem to last longer than some of the others I have had. They fit comfortably in hand and write really well. They come with .07 lead which is what most pencils take. Overall they are fun colors and are pretty functional. Totally think they seem to take better wear and tear versus other pencils that are similar.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My granddaughter loved these pencils. The lead did not break as easily as it does on most mechanical pencils they also have a darker apperance when you write. We will be stocking up on these for the coming school year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Bic extra strong mechnical pencils. They work really well. It is easy to press the eraser to get more lead to come out. The lead is very strong and very hard to break. In order to break the lead, I had to have a long length of lead sticking out of the bottom of the pencil. The lead won't break if using a normal amount of lead for writing. The pencils are very colorful and I think people of all ages would enjoy using them. I like that there are multiple colors on each pencil! Great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic has always had great pens and pencils. The lead is strong and the barrels are durable. Not much you can say about a writing utensil but these have always been my go to pencils. They erase completely and cleanly.
