[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was happily surprised, because in the past I had tried mechanical pencils and they just broke so easy. I am still using my first set up of this pencil. I was so happy I have already bought them and did not fill the need to buy the refills as well. Hope they don't put the company out of business with this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Bic Break Resistant mechanical pencil is awesome! It writes like a ballpoint pen and I haven’t had any issues at all with the lead breaking. It’s triangular shape makes it easy to grip. My 7 year old thinks it’s the best thing ever.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 3 school age kids and my 2 eldest prefer only mechanical pencils. These are very nice quality made pencils and I will most likely be purchasing more at back to school time. Thank you for this excellent sample!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these pencils. Ever since I was little I have used mechanical pencils over anything else but I would be very particular about which ones because they need to feel good in my hand. Very few did, but these are great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using these daily at work and they have been great. if your going to buy a pencil or lighter I recommend BIC products they seem to hold up great for daily use. Get out and go buy BIC products!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought it was different and the unique and it was very well made and something that most people need to have in their household. The way I had forgotten all about it and I thought that it looked like a pen It was nice to have a nice new neat gadget around to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these mechanical pencils to my young adult kids (19 and 20!) and they both put them to the test. They drew, sketched and did some writing. Both said the pencils wrote smooth and were definitely more durable than the other mechanical pencils they used when they were still in school!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are great. They fit my hand well and are comfortable. They are easy to use and the lead doesn’t break easily so you can keep writing. I prefer these pencils over any other. Pick these up for back tomorrow school.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love love love the grip and the eraser!! I have carpal tunnel and have had surgery on my dominant hand so sometimes it's hard to grip pencils for extended period of time. With this pencil I can write again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the product. However, I do not like that the button to push down more lead is on the side of the pencil. I absolutely LOVE that you provided an eraser and a good amount of it as well! I have hated running out of the little bit of erasers on regular lead pencils and then having to carry an extra eraser around with me in addition to the pencil. With this pencil and the refill of erasers that came with it, I should not have to worry about this for a long time, if ever.
