Paper Mate EverStrong #2 Pencils Reinforced Break-Resistant Lead When Writing 24-Pack

I bought these for my kids (and myself), and they’re honestly some of the best pencils we’ve used. The reinforced lead really does make a difference — no more constant sharpening or snapping every few minutes. They write super smooth, the eraser actually works without smudging, and they sharpen evenly every time. Great for homework, tests, or even sketching. If you’re tired of cheap pencils that break right when you start writing, these are definitely worth it. Solid quality from Paper Mate as always!

My husband and I are 'old-school'. We like good, old-fashioned pencils rather than the mechanical ones. These write smoothly, sharpen easily, and have a nice, balanced feel in the hand. The graphite is consistent and doesn’t crumble, and the eraser actually works without smudging. Great for everyday writing or sketching—reliable and well-made.

Teacher appreciated the correct size. Quality is strong. Easy to use and sharpen. Easy use and not too thick.

Name brand pencils that function as needed 😂 Good price for a name brand. Reliable #2 pencil color depth. Doesn’t smear. Sharpness will depend on the sharpener that you use.

Exactly came what we needed for school! Great pencils.

The Paper Mate EverStrong #2 pencils are some of the best I've used for my daughter's school. They sharpen easily, and the lead lives up to its name: it's durable and won't break, even when kids press hard. The erasers are smooth and effective, erasing cleanly without smudging. Plus, they're comfortable to hold, even for little hands. Perfect for school supplies, homework, or creative activities at home. They're ideal for children learning to write and a must-have in any backpack or pencil case. Highly recommended for parents and teachers!

As someone who works well organizing by color, these pens are a great and affordable alternative to expensive pens. They write well once primed and create smooth, smudge free work. Incredible value to get two of each pen.

Good product and durable.
