    • The best pencils
Size: 5 count
These are hands-down the best mechanical pencils I’ve ever used. The triangular grip is a total game changer — super comfortable, easy to hold, and perfect for longer writing sessions without hand fatigue. The thicker 1.3mm lead writes smoothly, doesn’t snap constantly, and is ideal for both kids and adults. I especially love how forgiving they are for handwriting. They’re great for anyone who struggles with fine motor control, grip strength, or just prefers a sturdier pencil (hello dyslexia/ADHD-friendly design 🙌). The erasers actually work well, and the refills are a nice bonus. Durable, comfortable, smooth-writing, and affordable — there’s a reason I’ve purchased these multiple times. If you’re on the fence, just get them. You won’t go back to regular mechanical pencils after this. ... show more

Absolutely love these pencils. They write smoothly and the eraser erases pretty well. Thick pencil is good for my larger hands. Also love the thicker lead. It has yet to break on me.

If you have students where you cannot read their handwriting because it is too light these are the best pencils and the lead lasts a long time. It is the perfect with the triangular grip. Finding it for this price with this many pencils was perfect.!

    • My children love writing with these
Size: 5 count
We use these pencils in our homeschool and my children love writing with them. They have a thicker lead and don’t break easily. The pencil itself is shaped nicely for learning how to hold a pencil. Fun colors for everyone and a great value. Haven’t had to refill yet, since the lead lasts so long, but it’s easy to do so and comes with extra lead. Suitable for my children aged 2-12. ... show more

    • Much love for these wonderful Paper Mate triangular mechanical pencils!
Size: 5 count
The lowly pencil doesn't get much love anymore, but I'm old school (well, perhaps I'm just "old") and I like to use pencils for crossword puzzles and word searches because those tasks occasionally require some occasional erasing. I generally employ wood pencils for my paper puzzling but found myself recently without one at the ready so I decided to deviate a bit from my usual habits and try this Paper Mate Triangular Mechanical pencil instead. I wasn't confident about my purchase initially, as my past track record with mechanical pencils has not been good, but these turned into a very pleasant purchase. First off the lead is satisfyingly thick. So often you find plastic mechanical pencils are equipped with the sharpest, thinnest lead, such that even a minute amount of pressure either results in breaking the lead, and/or puncturing the paper. Not so with these. They write as nicely as my trusty vintage Ticonderoga or my reliable Mongol, with a smooth, dark and responsive lead. The Paper Mates are a delight to hold and very comfortable in my hand. These are bargain priced and absolutely worth every penny. Will I switch to these permanently? I'm not sure as I do like my wood pencils, but they are the nicest mechanical pencils I've ever encountered. ... show more

    • Good pencil for kids and adults!
Size: 5 count
I like the larger size. Easy grip for anyone. Extra lead. The eraser doesn’t erase well at first, but after you break them in and get the outer layer off, they erase good. Good for kids who have trouble gripping the thinner #2 pencils. The lead is thick and does not break easily! Good buy.

Review Image by marie a tommasi
Exactly what I wanted. I think these are targeted for young children, but I really liked it because the other mechanical pencils that you find in the drugstore have very thin lead that snaps so I spend more time clicking the lead and running through it than actually writing. It's so annoying. Actually stopped buying those pencils but this one is great because the led is so thick it doesn't break. It's not a fine point but at least I know I'm not throwing lead out. The eraser is also really thick and lasts long I will be buying again. Submitted the prior type of mechanical pencil with the one I just purchased for point of reference. ... show more
