[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never put much thought into the quality of a pencil until I started using Ticonderoga. Suddenly, I'm comparing every pencil in my arsenal - which, as a teacher, is a pretty big thing. These pencils come pre-sharpened, which is always a plus in my book. They're also very comfortable to hold, the graphite writes smoothly and the pencil erases all errors easily. Even my son has started looking to make sure he picks up the Ticonderoga pencils for his writing assignments. We are not very brand-loyal in this household, but I have definitely given exception for these pencils. They truly do make a difference.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are worth every penny that you pay for them! They are so easy to sharpen and you don't experience the "shortening" of the pencil as you sharpen it, as you do with so many others. One sharpen and the pencil is gone, but not with these! You don't have to press hard, they naturally write "dark" without pressing hard. The erasers that are on the tops are one of the best, and don't leave streaks or a residue after using. I've used these with my kids since they started writing with the big fat starter pencils and they still prefer these, as they have gotten older, over mechanicals. Highly recommend and will continue purchasing for all of our writing needs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice pencils. They're perfect for all grade levels and hold up pretty well. Good brand, as well. Seem well made for being pencils. Erases and sharpens good. Other than that, no complaints. I'd purchase from brand in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The #2 american wood logo pencils are smooth to write with and the lead is strong. I can use them while working and know that the lead won't break. The size of the pencil is good, and I can use one for a long time without having to replace it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With three young kids, we go through a lot of pencils. These pencils were very easy to sharpen and they didn't split or break while sharpening. They also write very smoothly and neatly. The eraser on the end erases the mistakes nicely as well. No complaints, just an all around good pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great pencil it is a true quality product this pencil last a long time without needing sharpened I would definitely recommend this pencil to anybody looking to buy a good pencil this is a good quality product

At first I was worried that I could have gotten pencils for a cheaper cost but they are worth the money. My daughter is learning to write so she erases a lot. These pencils allow her to erase until her heart is content without leaving any trace marks. The eraser glides over the paper. They also work well on recycled paper! I'm a true fan now!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are labeled as the worlds best pencils and I can see why! These have a distinct smell that I actually really like! They write very nicely and the earasers work well. They are easy to sharpen and don’t seem to break very easily.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used these forever. They are the best non mechanical pencil that is made. They are strong and the lead does not break off. As you sharpen others, the lead continues to break off and you continue to sharpen more. This causes the pencil to be consumed faster and thus wasteful. These stand up longer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are perfect for my first grader to use on her homework after school. She is pretty rough on pencils but these hold up to her pressing hard on the tip. I love that these are pre- sharpened, it makes these great for keeping in the drawer so she always has them handy for immediate be use.
