Great pencils!
These mechanical pencils are very sturdy, write well and I love the fun colors. Easy to reload with new pencil lead when needed. Have a nice grip to them while writing. Erasers work very well and it is nice that they also came with two replacement erasers.

great pencils
My son uses these great quality lead pencils for school, he loves the way they write and when the lead breaks he doesn't have to sharpen them like regular pencils. I love the fact I don't have to buy lead as much because they come with extra lead.

Perfect for the classroom
My daughter is a teacher and uses them in the classroom. The kids love using colors and it helps brighten the work. These are high quality surviving the use by kids and unlike other the lead holds up to the pressure the kids put on it when writing.

Great Duration
I bought these for school and I love them so much! I love the way they feel in my hands, and they don’t cause my hands to cramp. I also love how smooth they write. Some pencils write incredibly bumpy but not these!

Great shape for small fingers!
I bought these for my grandson and they are the perfect size and shape for his little hands. Regular pencils are too small for him to hold and write with. With the triangular pencils he has no problems at all!!

Awesome for Kids!
I bought these pencils for the first grade class I worked in. A few of the students were having issues gripping their pencils properly. These helped the students because they are thicker and easier to grip.

LOVE these pencils and have been using them both at home/office at least since 2015! The ONLY problem is lack of lead/eraser refill options; unlike other PM mechanical pencils. What act does Congress have to pass for SOMEONE at PM to take action?

<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="8180096">
Hello, Thank you for your inquiry about our Triangular Mechanical Pencil Set. To reassemble your pencils, insert the lead sleeve into the barrel, ensuring it aligns with the internal grooves. Press the click mechanism into place at the top, then add the eraser cap. Finally, test the pencil by pressing the eraser, if the lead doesn&rsquo;t advance, double-check the alignment of the clicker. If you have more questions, or you require assistance, please reach out to us via the &quot;Contact Us&quot; form on our official website. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.

It would be nice if a) the erasers were white, which make erasing mistakes cleaner and easier and b) eraser and lead refills were available for purchase separately. I know neither of those are an option at this time.
