Papermate PhD Mechanical Pencils (Case of 12)

I have been using the Sanford/Papermate PhD mechanical pencils for about 8 years I was searching for a mechanical pencil with a comfortable grip, large erasure, and 7 mm lead when I found theses. They are very comfortable to use and hold up extremely well. When I saw overstock had a box of 12 for around $20 an snapped one up and now I have a lifetime supply.

I am disappointed that the lead seems to break often...not the fault of the instrument, but maybe the fact that the lead is .007 ... I am keeping them, however, as for the price they are fine

I purchased these mechanical pencils for the engineers in my office. They were very pleased to get them! I had previously bought the most inexpensive mechanical pencils and they wouldn't even refill them - just threw them away. But these are keepers!

• How accurate was the sizing? Excellent
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. Excellent
• Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? Yes

The pencils arrived quickly, in perfect condition and were exactly what I was expecting. These are impossible to buy in Australia and now I have a great, reliable supplier!
