    I bought these pencils for an art project a few months ago. At first, I LOVED them. The colors are great, very vibrant, and application is very smooth. They’re also quite easy to sharpen and don’t seem to flake off at the tip the way some wooden pencils do.
    That being said, I have only one complaint. After a week or so of use, I noticed that the color shaft in the middle of the pencil started dislodging and falling out of the back of the pencil. This has happened with six of my colors. I tried to push it back in place but it broke off. I then sharpened the pencil down to get back to the “color” portion, but this reduced the life of my pencils by half since the color was being wasted out the back.
    Overall, I still think they’re a good value for the money. They’re better than Crayola and much less expensive than the typical professional brands, so you get what you pay for.

    I really like these pencils; they color smoothly and sharpen easily. It’s nice that Amazon is offering “Prang” products, an excellent alternative to the ubiquitous “Crayola” brand.

    Prang art supplies are great for students. If you need to get watercolors, be sure to buy the PRANG WATERCOLOR sets. They are far superior to the other student sets of paints, and many adult art hobbyists, myself included, continue to use them. I love them! Crayola makes some decent products, too, but whatever you do, AVOID “RoseArt” brand school supplies. They are poor quality, in my experience.

    This is an excellent price for excellent colored pencils. I gladly recommend this set.
