    Paper Mate Mates 1.3mm Mechanical Pencils, Assorted Colored Barrels, 8-Count with Lead and Erasers (Bundle)

    • Love this set because it has the extra erasers (oddly shaped and hard to replace any other way) as well as extra lead.
    • Eraser tends to break off and doesn't erase as well as the white erasers.
    • My kids use these for most things and they work extremely well, easy to refill and the erasers are also decent.
    • The eraser is large and doesn't smudge
    • I love my new pencils and the eraser is great too!
    • Like the other reviewers have remarked, the erasers are easily lost and not easily replaced.
    • The erasers are really nice and don't smear or leave marks
    • The eraser is nice and is in the same triangular shape as the pencil which makes it easy to erase smaller details with the point of the eraser
    • Eraser works
    • I wish the eraser was more secured.
    • The erasers hold the lead in, however, the eraser fits loosely in the cap and constantly falls off
    • The erasers are good too and last a long time
    • The eraser is kind of hard and relatively worthless but in a pinch works
    • Our family likes to write with this thick lead; however, the erasers are worthless.
    • I understand it's completely orange to save on production costs, but if you're going to replicate a pencil, then replicate it.— ERASER —There is a pink eraser at the end (which is as good as any standard eraser), but I took off another half star because there are no eraser refills to buy, only lead
    • is the eraser gets lost easily
    • One thing I have noticed is that their erasers don't work well on certain types of paper which can be annoying
    • They need to be making the same quality of pencil, but with a white, latex free, hi-polymer eraser that is available.
    • The erasers last well and remove all traces of what was written on the page
    • Love the erasers too
    • I like the short sturdy eraser
    • Only problem is the erasers seem to somewhat easily fall out and the kids lose them.
    • Kids go through erasers like made.
    • However, I cannot recommend the erasers, which tend to fall off easily and get lost
    • BUT the erasers fall out the pencils so easily
    • Also, they always had the worst erasers
    • I use them daily, just make sure to leave them in a small pencil pouch, or the box, because the eraser falls out easily and you lose your lead.
    • This set is perfect because it includes spare lead refills and erasers
    • Our family likes to write with this thick lead; however, the erasers are worthless.
    • The erasers hold the lead in, however, the eraser fits loosely in the cap and constantly falls off
    • Also the eraser looks crappy but it actually erases not too bad, although when I used one to draw I used a push up eraser because I trust those more
    • Despite the replaceable eraser running out too soonThis is the best Mechanical Pencil EverThe larger Lead is so fitting to my style of writing
    • The erasers are pretty much like standard pencil erasers, and don't smudge too much
    • The extra erasers are handy, but I wish they gave us 5 for the 5 pencils instead of just 2.
    • These pink erasers are horrible!
    • Eraser is large, does not fall out and erases marks to extinction
    • The erasers don't fall out of my other mechanical pencils, only these.
    • The eraser is nice and big, and easy to use
    • I agree that the erasers on these things suck, but the lead sizes being strong enough to take all manner of beatings from my heavy handed children more than makes up for it to me.
    • Consistently loose the erasers.
    • Very thick lead and great erasers
    • My only complaint is that it's too easy to pry the eraser off (which seems to be the first thing every kid does).
    • Eraser tends to break off and doesn't erase as well as the white erasers.
    • The only real problem is the eraser, on most paper it is not good erasing especially when little boys are trying to get homework done fast.
    • But the only real criticism I have of this pencil is the eraser.
    • so maybe you wouldn't notice?)- Has a proprietary eraser, so eraser refills are only available with the multipack pencils (I don't really mind this because I use a separate eraser
    • The eraser doesn't break off and does its job without smearing
    • The erasers fall out very easily.
    • The only downside, the eraser easily falls out
    • Added bonus that the erasers are actually good, too, which is not always the case with pencil erasers
    • Lead advances nicely, eraser is a little weird, it ists in a plastic holder, instead of the pencil base, so you lose about 1/2 of the eraser, buy other than that, love these
    • Perfect for shopping list - eraser works and lead doesn't break too easily.
    • Instead of using the eraser of this pencil, we usually put a cap eraser on it, or he uses his retractable eraser.
    • Good pencils but erasers fall off and ordered more only to see the same problem
    • It site well in my hand, like a pen and has a great eraser.
    • The points are not as sharp as you get with sharpened wooden pencils and the triangular shape is much easier to grasp and hold in proper writing and drawing position that the average wooden pencil.
    • Only mechanical pencil I will use because it doesn't break off as you write.
