One of the best things about this pencil is how light weight it is
My favorite thing about this pencil is how light it feels
The new retracting eraser smooths the whole erasing thing out nicely and makes eraser longevity and changing much less of a problem
You can twist the top of the pencil to extend more eraser (this thing is long, like an inch and a half or more of eraser, you'll find it very hard to run out of eraser with this thing)
I always carry one with me were ever I go, and because clip on the pencil has never broken ,which is a common problem, these pencle are the only thing that I use to write with
I love this pencil and I wanted to try the size 9 lead.
I prefer the 0.7mm size because the leads don't break quite as often.
Half millimeter is the best lead size for all-round writing for adults
The key feature - a generously-sized eraser that you could twist to keep a useful length above the top of the pencil - performed only too well: without even touching the eraser, I could do nothing to stop it from extending further and further from the top of the pencil each time I clicked to advance the lead
I like the size of the eraser and that it can be changed easily.
Once you've been cheated it seems " throwing good money after bad" to spend the time and money to return the garbage especially when you know there will be no response from the seller or manufacturer.
Not worth the money :-(
Highly recommend the used like new ones if you don't have enough money to get them new!
Worth the money - solid, stores lots of lead, replaceable, large twist eraser.
and i didn't have enough money to buy new ones, and they came in like new
The 0.7mm lead doesn't break as easily as the 0.5mm does!
After having owned these pencils for several months, I noticed the erasers on some of them would occasionally twist out by themselves as I used them, necessitating the need to twist them back several times during a crossword puzzle..
Pentel also makes options available if you prefer a 0.5mm lead (which I break very often) and 0.7mm lead (which are okay if that's your preference).
I prefer a tough, slim, pocket-pencil with a big eraser and thick 0.7 mm lead

Very comfortable silicone grip, good everyday lead thickness and hardness, and substantial twist eraser
Eraser untested as of now.
I homeschool my kids and these are the only pencils we use due to their great construction and these wonderfl twist erasers!

The lead is strong and the twist eraser is very convenient
Apparently, some people are getting good quality and some people are getting duds.
Much cheaper quality than the standard Twist-Erase pencils
Now I have twelve black-lead pencils that I don't need, and I'm back to searching for good quality mechanical pencils with erasable red lead.
It has amazing grip, amazing flow, an amazing eraser, and good build quality
The shoddy quality of these pencils was an unpleasant surprise, all the more so because I bought the entire box of 12 and not just two or three of them
Pentel also makes options available if you prefer a 0.5mm lead (which I break very often) and 0.7mm lead (which are okay if that's your preference).
Pentel added a silicone-like collar on them a few years ago to improve the grip and went to translucent colors, but they remain the same great, simple, workhorse mechanical pencil with the long, twist-up eraser
Kinda pissed at Pentel for selling me juuuunk, but I did buy another kind to test at the same time, and these have redeemed the Pentel reputation with me--Pentel Sharp Automatic Pencil, 0.9mm, Yellow Barrels, 2 Pack (P209BP2-K6)Steer clear of the "Twist-Erase Express" and spend a buck more on the Pentel P209, P207, and P205's instead.
I have been using Pentel Twist Erase pencils since they first came out in the early 1980s
My freshman year of college, I got a pack of Pentel Twist Erase mechanical pencils

Nice to find on Amazon as not always available at stores.

The colors were a darker shade and the material was cheaper than the pictures showed.
