These are the best color pencils. Have been using this brand for the past 45 years, colors don't fade - remain bright. Have different shades and if one runs out, you can buy replacements.

I love these pencils. I had a tin of prismacolors gifted to me before I made this purchase and loved the quality. I saw this price and it couldn't be beat, so I bought them. There were none that were damaged or broken. They have colors to blend that make up perfect skin tones and enough variety to not feel like you're missing anything.

This is a really nice starter set of quality colored pencils. I purchased for a family member who is excited about art and trying new mediums, textures and art tools. This set is a great starter for a new artist in the making. Happy I purchased, maybe should have gotten one for myself.

Just not the same quality as the ones I bought several years ago. I purchased the Prismacolor pencil sharpener. It works well for some colors, but not for other colors. Lots of breakage with this set, yet I don’t have this issue at all with my older set.

I have had these color pencils before and live them. I was so happy to find them at Sam's. One problem with some of the pencils is they break way down when you are sharpening them which is really annoying. Regardless, I still love them but wish they were a little stronger to withstand the sharpening process.

This is my first set of Prismacolor and I really enjoy using them. They feel soft to color and it has vibrant colors. The quality of the barrel is not perfect but good enough. No broken pencils so far. Color range? I would have replaced the metallics for grays (silver and gold).

Gifted it

Color pencils are great but it came with 8 pencils missing.

Very smooth coloring are easy to blend and layer. Excellent price!!!

The colors are bright and blend easily. There are enough colors to have a good variety for blending, shading and creating beautiful pictures.
