About Nicpro 0.5 mm Mechanical Pencils Set with Case, 3 Metal Artist Pencil
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
75% found the pencil weight balanced
I love the weight of the pencil, which makes it pleasant to hold.
The pencils are very durable as they are made of thick metal, yet they are not heavy.
I love the full-metal body and weight of the pencils, which are comfortable and durable.
73% appreciated the refill mechanism, while 27% found it cumbersome
The pencil lead mechanism doesn't last long and eventually stops dispensing lead. The area around the lead becomes loose, hindering writing or sketching.
74% found the lead variety useful, yet 26% didn't
The pencils were labeled and shipped as .5, but they are clearly made for .7 lead.
I tried 3 different brands of .5 lead, including the lead that came with the pencil, and all of it is just completely loose in there.
75% found the lead smooth, but 25% encountered issues
The pencil lead mechanism doesn't last long and eventually stops dispensing lead. The loose area around the lead hinders writing or sketching.
Once I use up half of the pencil, the lead falls out.
When I try to advance the lead, the last inch drops out of the pencil.
I have noticed that the lead movement in this mechanical pencil is wobbly and not firm compared to others I have used.

73% appreciated the eraser quality
I am very picky about the erasers I use and these erasers are of the same quality as the fanciest name brand art erasers.
The erasers are satisfying and erase effortlessly.
81% appreciated the clip strength
The clip on my pencil is excellent as it maintains its elasticity and does not bend out of shape or snap like plastic clips.
83% liked the barrel design
The mechanical pencils have a sturdy, all-metal body and a more complex lead eversion mechanism than usually seen in inexpensive run-of-the-mill mechanical pencils.
