Even the erasers work well

They're easy to sharpen, sharpen evenly, and have very good erasers, especially for those found on top of pencils

Centered lead, even cut, smooth shape, effective eraser (no smudge).

The erasers are great, too -- they don't leave stains behind when you use them!

The lead is kind of waxy and hard, the finish is sticky, the erasers are scratchy

The eraser is weird and the lead breaks every time I sharpen it.

Maybe not the best eraser, but it does the job

My kids snap leads, destroy erasers, and sharpen to nubs pencils like there is some sort of bounty system for ruining writing instruments

Eraser is a little stiff (my only complaint) but this pencil rocks.

The erasers in particular are really nice and strong

The only negative is the eraser

They hold a point (good quality lead), have a great eraser compound, and have yet to find a defect in wood or lead quality.

The erasers work

On the down side, the erasers are not the best and are the reason for the lowered rating

These have the worst eraser I have used on any wood pencil

Love these things, the eraser is great and leaves no smudges.

They are made from quality wood, have soft erasers, and the leads are all centered well

The graphite is dark, the erasers are clean, and the majority of the pencils are strait

Finally I ordered, on Amazon the Ticonderoga Pencils and thought they didn't strike me as the greatest pencils, they at least didn't break on sharpening, though I noticed they don't sharpen to a fine point and the wood isn't of the best quality, the eraser is not great either

All were well-sharpened with good erasers.

In my opinion, these Write Dudes USA Gold Premium Cedar pencils are some of the finest pencils I've ever used, as dull as it may make me seem to say such a thing

worked as they should.
