Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The only thing i would improve about this pencil is the grip. It functions and feels satisfying to use. It consisted of the thin cardboard base most mechanical pencils come in, but it also had a plastic front to show the pencil off, which wasn't glued...  Read More

The mechanical pencil eschews constant sharpening and keeps a sharp point. It’s well worth it to spend an additional $5 for a five-eraser refill kit.

Cons

Strong lead is really the only selling point of this mechanical pencil. The eraser does not last unless you have an external one on hand, but ideally do not want to have one to enjoy this pencil.

This product is awful considering the price. It is way overpriced for what you are getting. The description states the color is red and red ink? Once again not red. It barely meets that compared to cheaper alternatives.
