BIC Xtra-Strong Thick Lead Mechanical Pencil, With Colorful Barrel Thick Point (0.9mm), 24-Count Pack, With Erasers (MPLWP241)

These BIC Xtra-Sparkle Mechanical Pencils are a delightful blend of style and functionality. The vibrant, glittery barrels add a fun touch to my writing routine, making them a hit not just with students but also with adults who appreciate a bit of flair in their stationery.Functionally, they excel. The 0.7mm #2 lead writes smoothly and is ideal for various tasks, from note-taking to standardized tests. The lead advances easily with a click, and the erasers are effective without smudging, keeping work neat and professional.Each pencil comes pre-loaded with three full-length leads, offering the equivalent of 2.5 wood-case pencils, which is both economical and convenient.The clear clip is a thoughtful addition, allowing me to attach the pencil to notebooks or pockets easily. Overall, these pencils combine aesthetic appeal with reliable performance, making them a staple in my writing tools.

Nice weight pencil, easy to grip. The button to extend mor lead is so much easier than the others that you have to push down on the top. The erasure erasers every mard without leaving residue. I wish the twisting mechanism had a stopper cuz the erasure tends to wind itself back in unless I put my finger on the twisting part. The lead doesn't seem to "smear" as much as regular lead. I make cross stitch patterns so I'm loving the cleaner pages

My favorite pencils! I found out about these when I saw my sister using them for school. I wanted to test out if they actually had unbreakable lead and it has yet to break while i've been using them. They are easy to hold, don't make my hands sore, and make my handwriting look very nice. I also like the fact that the lead shows up a bit softer rather than harsh and looking like pen. My absolute favorite go to pencils! I've already bought a second pack!

Like all mechanical pencils they get annoying when you break led lol but I love these colors and the writing is fantastic, its almost when you write on the same side for awhile and it gets that perfect smooth writing, these are those pencils

This refill pack is perfect to refill the lead and erasers in the break resistant pencils. My son has a heavy hand when writing and would always break the lead on the flimsy mechanical pencils. These work great for him so love the idea of being able to refill the lead and erasers instead of buying all new pencils.

These are rather good, I have been using them consistently.They are not as good as the Y&C brand pencils that have a similar set of features: twist-up extra long erase, side-advance lead, and a retracting nib that won't puncture your pocket. Those features together are quite rare.It's also sad that these are only available in 0.7mm, as I prefer 0.5mm and already own a lot of 0.5mm leads, including different hardness leads.These possibly look a bit childish because of the colors, but I don't mind.They work surprisingly well, I associate Bic with terrible ballpoint pens, but these are actually good quality.These are my favorite pencils that are currently on the market with twist-up erasers. For discontinued pencils, my favorite is the Y&C. And for mechanical pencils overall, my favorite is the Pentel with regular eraser. Because of the twist-up eraser, this is now my primary daily pencil.

I bought the BIC Break-Resistant Mechanical Pencils (0.7mm, 12-pack) for my daughter, who’s in middle school and constantly snapping leads in her old pencils. These have been a total lifesaver! The shock-absorption mechanism really works—she can press as hard as she wants while scribbling notes or sketching, and the lead holds up. The grip is comfy for her long study sessions, and the jumbo eraser is a hit—she says it wipes out mistakes cleanly without smudging her paper. Plus, the pack includes extra leads and erasers, so we’re set for a while.My daughter’s been using them for everything from math homework to doodling in her journal, and she hasn’t complained once about jamming or breakage. They’re lightweight but don’t feel cheap, and she loves that they’re refillable. Honestly, these pencils have made her schoolwork less frustrating, and that’s a win for both of us! I’d recommend them to any parent looking for reliable pencils their kids will actually enjoy using.

These pencils write smoothly and are perfect for precise note-taking. The metallic barrel feels sturdy and comfortable. Great value for the pack!
