BIC Xtra Smooth Pastel Mechanical Pencils, No. 2, Back to School, 0.7 mm, 24-Count

These are my "go to" pencils. I love a mechincal pencil because I can keep it in my purse without the tip breaking off (I use a paper planner and write in pencil). My kids lover them too. Compared to other brands I have tried, these pencils are much better because the erasers don't break off easily and the graphite holds up well when writing (other ones it breaks easier). I love these pastel colors.

These pencils are perfect! My daughter absolutely loves them — they write smoothly, look cute with the pastel colors, and even have a magnetic touch that makes them easy to keep together. The price was better than other stores I checked, and the quality is great for school or home use. Highly recommend for students or anyone who loves stylish stationery!

My only complaint about this product is I can never seem to order the correct erasers for replacements. Would be great if they actually. Happy option of purchasing extra erasers when you buy the pencils themselves. I hate using pens use pencils as much as I can, and only these push pencil type.

Pretty colors, writes well, erases well and eraser stays on. I erase a lot and write small, and these pencils are nice for everyday use.

My students love using mechanical pencils. As a teacher I won't give food as a prize, so mechanical pencils are a definite favorite choice. The pastel colors are different from the standard packs and a couple students have commented on the colors.

Love these basics and the color variety

Love these pencils!!! My daughter's favorite for school

Great for state testing. The lead lasts a lot longer!

They are great! My granddaughter loves them!!

Not as sturdy as they used to be. No comfort grip that used to be included. Color is nice. Will get the job done for an inexpensive mechanical pencil.
