Twist Erase EXPRESS Automatic Pencil, 0.5mm Lead Size, Black Barrel, Box of 12 (QE415A)

I use these on a daily basis, and I love them. They are well-designed, sit well in the hand, and are sturdy. Most similar pencils I find to be "fussy," in the sense that the lead breaks easily. Not so with these pencils.

It works very well and writes very samll and deep like I like. Eraser lasts a long time. Always my go to pencil for any assignment.

The media could not be loaded. They’re total 12 pencils. Works well. The eraser part is twisting and the leads come out by pressing.

I use these every day. They are my favorite pencil. They feel A LITTLE cheap in my hand, but not cheap enough to break, more like cheap enough that I don't have to worry about breaking them which is actually what I like. They write well, and clean.The only drawback is that the return is a little stiff when you try to retract the lead, so you break a lot of lead early on until you get used to that. After you get used to the stiff return, there are really no problems, and overall it is a great product.

To be honest, i wasn't expecting my pencils to come in in such good quality! I got a used pack since i needed pencils and i didn't have enough money to buy new ones, and they came in like new! Only problem was that the erasers has pencil marks around their rims but honestly thats minor, and everything else is perfect! Highly recommend the used like new ones if you don't have enough money to get them new!

I love these because they hook on the front of my shirt and don’t fall off. I use it for work and they last a long time.

These are the best mechanical pencils because they have the best lead and eraser. No smudging or smearing, and erases cleanly. I’ll never use another brand again.

I first used the Pentel Twist Erase pencil 3 years ago as I was searching for a good mechanical pencil with a refillable eraser. I have not used any other since. I loved it for all the reasons other buyers have mentioned--large/long refillable eraser, rubber grip (not perfect but better than nothing), and interchangeable parts in case something breaks. I was hesitant to purchase this one, the "Express XP", since it was not the same item I was used to.The original, if taken apart would be four pieces (apart from led/eraser). This pencil is only three pieces, since the pocket clip (now a more flexible plastic) is one piece with the upper barrel. BTW, the eraser that fitted the original also fits the Express XP.I've seen the original pencils sell for $3.00 apiece, but this set was a dozen for much less. So a cheaper and simpler design, construction, and material.But when it comes to performance, this pencil has a flaw. With every one of these pencils I had, both my wife and I experienced that sometimes the lead would break inside the tip so it would be stuck in the tip. This happened A LOT--if it didn't I wouldn't mention it or feel the need to edit my original review (which was five stars by the way, but the one who uses an item for years is not the same as the one who uses it for a day or two). But when the lead gets stuck, how do you dislodge it? First, unscrew the tip. Now look inside the removed tip and you'll see that there is a piece of lead in there and you should not be able to see through the lead hole. Then you have to take another mechanical pencil of the same width, get the lead to protrude about a centimeter, and then carefully push that lead into the tip from where it normally writes. Eventually the broken lead will fall out. It's possible to do this cumbersome operation without a second pencil, i.e. with the original, but you have to have more lead in the barrel, pull back on the clinging apparatus, push the barrel as if you're going to push out some lead, now hold it so that some lead will begin to fall out, about a centimeter or so, and then continue as mentioned above. If you don't want to fiddle around with this BS--imagine you're on a bus or in a classroom taking a test or following a fast-talking lecturer and all of a sudden the lead gets stuck like this. Don't waste your time. Spend a few dollars extra and get the original.

No se alimentan muy bien. El lápiz viene sin mina cargada. Debes hacer clic en el final y cargar el cable en él para poder escribir con él. La mayoría de los portaminas hacen unos pocos clics y la mina se carga, en dos no pude lograr que la mina cayera en su lugar y tuve que quitar la mina y empujarla hacia arriba desde el extremo.
