Only thing I would like is if it were weighted a little more like a more expensive drafting pencil

Heard great things about these pencils but both of mine stopped working within about one month

The thickness, the weight, the lead rotation thing that keeps the point sharp, the overall balance

One thing I was concerned about was if it would work with non Kuru

Only thing I don't like is how much lead comes out when I run out and click for more

Don't overload the refill slot with too many leads as it will tend to clog the mechanism and won't uptake new sticks as needed

Quality is good, I like the plastic material, it feels way better than a metal one

The build quality on this one is good, but I would go for the non retractable slide that is a bit cheaper

It is a very comfortable pen with excellent writing quality

It’s good quality, BUT difficulty to use

The combination of the rotating lead, the fine point, and the dark color of the lead makes writing with this pencil just as easy as using a pen for me

My only complaint: the need to deliberately break the point at times to re-awaken sharpness

The thickness, the weight, the lead rotation thing that keeps the point sharp, the overall balance

The pencil also fits in the binding of my Maruman notebook, and excels at it's purpose of rotating the lead to produce a very beautiful fine mark while keeping that sharp point

Very nice pencil which lives up to its reputation for ease of writing and an always sharp point

Don't overload the refill slot with too many leads as it will tend to clog the mechanism and won't uptake new sticks as needed

I appreciate the thought, and that's a good feature in theory -- but they did not put it in practice very well

The best feature is the collapse metal sheath that goes back inside when you're done using it so it doesn't poke through your bag or pencil case

This pencil felt a little wobbly and did not see any difference from this product versus a regular cheap mechanical pencil that doesn't have the twisting features

The only really good feature is the retracting tip which is not thin and doesn't get bent when dropped.

The .5 mm lead allows for a smoother writing experience than a

Pipe slide is great, grip needs some modification for a comfortable writing experience

I brag about this pencil all the time to friends and have them try it out because it's such a great writing/ drawing experience.

But the reality is the writing experience is worse than normal mechanical pencils

Some reviews mentioned they felt wobbly when the rotation mechanism engages, but I don’t feel any wobbling at all in my case and the writing experience is very solid.

The writing is sharp and the pencil is comfortable to hold.

I can say that this pencil does actually keep its lead tip sharp and precise, you won't get any dull writing with it

The writing feels rough and isn't very smooth, but perhaps its because I am so used to writing with pens.

does what it says on the box, excellent writing experience

I really like how the pencil and leads work together to get consistent line thicknesses

However, something erasing an entire line of a math problem...probably will want to have a dedicated eraser for that.

I normally use the 0.3mm Kuru Toga for everyday writing and note taking while in class, as I have small handwriting and prefer thin, fine lines

Good feel in the hand, great look on paper, clear clean lines

It always feels like you've got the pencil lead on the perfect side for smooth and clear writing, leading to sharp and crisp lines.

Really like the design and concept of the pencil but the lead does still break occasionally.

after 10-days using, I do agree that the design is smart and it's working fine, except you are drawing a long continues line.

Though I did not purchased this from Amazon in the past, but I do love this smart design by Japanese and want to introduce it to people who like to write with mechanic/automatic pencil

The Uni is still a good pencil but just doesn't suit my needs but being a collector of pencils and pens I am still glad I bought it because it is a nice looking mechanical pencil, very well designed and extremely light

I miss the old Pentel model 535.

I much prefer the Advanced model with it heavier weight and better balance.

Love the way this feels in my hand, I don't find slim models as comfortable to hold

This is now my favorite mechanical pencil, the previous kuru toga model wouldnt stay sharp nearly as well as this faster rotating model
