    • Horrible quality
    • Horrible quality.
    • Very nice quality.
    • But the initial sharpening took forever and about 5 were broken, 1 so badly it cracked it was useless, which is a good average for prisma as the quality can be poor.
    • The colors are beautiful and the quality of the actual color led is very nice
    • Great quality, but not sharpened.
    • Lovely quality of pencil as always from this brand
    • The only problem on both pencils is the bad quality of their casings.
    • Great quality and color and very smooth light pencils!
    • very good quality
    • Love all the colors and the quality.
    • When you buy Verithin you're getting what you pay for: cheaper quality for a cheaper price
    • Let me be clear, I've bought the verithin variety of Prismacolor before in store (I've been using this brand for almost two decades) and they were great quality and perfect for fine-line, this is about the ones I purchased here and had delivered
    • Have had better quality but will do
    • case!The pencils feel a bit cheap however and the wood casing isn't the best quality
    • I love to draw lifelike drawings (eyes, lips, portraits, animals) and I feel like these pencils have really improved the quality of my work
    • I love this brand, very good quality
    • Bad Mexican quality
    • the us art supply were the least expensive, but the 50 color set has too many nearly identical shades none of which have color names or numbers, and the plastic case is awkward and difficult to open without spilling the pencils out.all in all, i have found the prismacolor have the best quality of color, and are the easiest to hold
    • Good quality and make an excellent adjunct to my other pencils.
    • Great quality products, live up to expectations, I use them for a variety of things, and now coloring too.
    • I was REALLY expecting better quality and am kind of disappointed
    • Shopped around and got the same great quality for a much more affordable price!
    • I love the quality and volume the colors radiate with these Verithin leads.
    • The colors are alright, with some more saturated than others, but the quality is lacking
    • Excellent quality
    • Very good quality and coloring range - especially for the price
    • Fantastic quality for the price
    • Great quality and these were actually reasonably priced
    • Even with these however I recommend sharpening by hand and getting the best quality sharpener you can find so the pigments break less and last longer before you have to replace.
    • I have Prismacolor Premier pencils, love them but these, as several others have said are of poor quality, (crappy
    • Nice set good Quality
    • very nice pencils, good quality compared to Crayola, perfect for blending colors
    • Not as good quality as I was expecting
    • Came in well and good quality pencils
    • These pencils are great quality!
    • These colored pencils are great quality
    • I was really expecting better quality - now I have pencils that are shorter than the package, so I can't even get them out, and I'm afraid to use them because if I have to sharpen them again they will keep breaking.
    • love the pencils however when i received them several of the pencils were broken and i could not use them but the quality in the surviving pencils were very good and the colors were very bright
    • However I do think they are the best for getting fine lines and a good rich color quality of those I have tried.
    • The tip doesn't get as sharp as I would like it too
    • The tips don't break as easily as with some brands, and the color variety gives a wide array of color and shade choices
    • I would not recommend these for children as you could very easily lose a lot of money compared to crayolas, but if you're a seasoned artist with a semi-decent grip then go for it
    • Sometimes I'm hesitant to order online because if their dropped, they'll crack and continue to break as you sharpen them
    • It does not hold together well (as in maybe poor adhesive?), the cores were broken when delivered and as a result I've had to sharpen quite a few of these over half way down the length of the pencil just to get a point that doesn't simply fall the hell out
    • In the end only 6 of the pencils last and worked as they should
    • I like the feel of them in my hands as well, not as if I am going to break them, but sturdy for such thin precision
    • I’m obsessed with adult coloring and these are amazing for very small intricate spaces, always makes it possible to shade those small spaces as it doesn’t lay down so much color at once
    • these are very good, I like them to color in tiny spaces as well as for outlining.
    • The first box I sent back because the first 4 pencils out of the box just kept breaking as I sharpened and the wood wasn't smooth as I sharpened.
