All pencils in our home have become replaced with these magic pencils. They are comfortable for my arthritic hands, and my children love them. The lead does NOT snap like with other mechanical pencils, the eraser works amazingly well and is big and fat so lasts a long time. My only complaint is getting the eraser out once used. Take it out before it gets to the plastic otherwise it's impossible to grab.
