These are absolutely perfect!! the colors are so vibrant and it’s not scratchy like when you use Crayola pencils, the color is smooth and blends together very easilyThese are used daily and my daughter loves how smooth and easy they glide onGreat selection of colors and great packaging. Unfortunately, when I needed to sharpen ANY of the pencils, the lead kept breaking.Very frustrating!The pencils are great for the money, but there appears to be some printing issues with the names of some of the colors ?So I got these for roughly $12 on sale. I figured why not, that's a price I cant beat. Wow, am I glad I did. These pencils are nicely made - no issues with the color, write/color smoothly on paper. They come in a very nice roll-up bag - great for traveling with or storing in the car. Also a manual pencil sharpener and a pencil holder. The pencil holder is my favorite because my fingers cramp when the pencils get small.I would have given it 4.5 stars if I could. Why? When I opened the package it did smell - very distinctly. I know some would take off more than 1/2 star for that but for me, it was no bother. I unrolled the pencils and left it out on my dining room table for 2 days - smell was gone. Also the smell did not prohibit me from using the product and the pencils are very nice.Unfortunately upon receiving my package a few of the pencils were broken at the tip but I believe that was probably through the delivery process. The colors are beautiful and the case is perfect for on the go. I don’t believe I will use the pencil extender but other than that I am excited to put these colored pencils to useLet me start by saying the colors are great... as long as you disregard some of the names of the colors. Several had typos (grass greet), Several had the wrong color name (lemon yellow is actually brown and brown beige is yellow), 1 color name is offensive (rape yellow), most of the pastel colors are too dark to be pastel, mint green is too dark, deep orange is more like a pastel shade and broom yellow is more like peach. I am personally offended by the "rape yellow" color name. Could the manufacturer not think of a better name? Why is that even a suggestion? All of that aside, the colors, Based on how they "write", are awesome.These are very nice colored pencils. There is a big variety of bright colors. I got the 75 pack. The case is very sturdy. My only complaint is that when you try to sharpen them, quite often the tip would break off so you have to keep sharpening them and waste some of the pencil.
