[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has used these pencils for the last couple months in school and at home and they have worked very well. They came pre sharpened, so that's a big plus, also they're really strong. My youngest is 8 so she can be tough on pencils. Not one has been broken.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I homeschool and these pencils are great! I refuse to let me kids use the cheap character pencils and these seem very strong and sharpen well! Overall a great pencil and I will definitely buy these again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these pencils because I homeschool (have for years) and I have kids in college. As far as I see, you can never have enough pencils. I really like them. They are good, hearty pencils. They feel very strong in my hand and are hard to break when I write. I like my pencils to write dark, these pencils do that. The eraser is good and so far doesn't smear when I use it. I would get them again, if the need arose. I would recommend them to anyone who likes writing with pencils, especially those with kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids are home schooled right now due to the pandemic so a good pencil is a must. These did not disappoint. They sharpen quickly dont break easily and you can do a lot of writing before you need to re-sharpen them. I love that they come pre-sharpen its a plus when you need a pencil because your kid misplaced theirs along with the sharpener. These are very durable fit good in your pencils. We are very satisfied with them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these pencils to sample and leave an honest review for. They came a few days before my kids had state testing so I sent them to take the test with them. The pencils were already sharpened and the erasers are the good ones that don't leave smudges. Would definitely recommend these!
