PRO:
++Well-made and well-thought-out design. Wish I'd heard of these before now.
++ The lead release is unique in where it's placed and how well it works.
++ The rubberized grips at the bottom make this comfortable to hold and write with. I tend to grip pens & pencils tightly and some of them are not always comfortable when taking a lot of notes.
++ The retractable eraser is cool.
++ In addition to the 2 pencils with leads, there are 6 lead & 2 eraser refills.
CONS:
- - While the grip is really comfy, I do have to turn the pen so that it fits the best way.
- - I'm not crazy about the hardness of 0.5 lead. But that is not why I bought this.
- - The package gives no info on how to use the pen. I wouldn't know about being able to adjust the eraser if
it wasn't mentioned by other customers.
- - The eraser is not that great. It does an okay job but the lead is a hard type (HB- Hard Black) so... Also, the eraser has that gritty feel while using it. I prefer a softer one. This kind gives me that "nails on chalkboard" feeling. On the plus side, it erases my Frixion erasable ink!
OVERALL - you cannot beat this deal. If you like the HB lead type this is a steal since you are getting a total of 8 leads, 4 erasers, and the 2 instruments. I'm going to keep searching for a 3B lead in this brand and setup. In the meantime, I have replacement leads in 3B so...
