| kamic's Full Review: Papermate PAP56035 Clear Point Mechanical Pencil P... |
The good thing about mechanical pencils is that you can keep the pencil as long as you supply the lead. The problem is that there is never enough eraser for all the lead you go through. The Papermate Clear Point pencil solves that problem, which is one of the major reasons I love it!
Pros:
Eraser: My favorite part is the long eraser that comes with the pencil. It's about 2 inches long and the majority of it is inside the pencil. When running out of eraser, simply twist the top which twists the eraser up, like chapstick. The pencil is in the user's hands to decide how long they want their eraser.
Lead: The lead is 0.7 mm, which I think is the perfect size; not too thick, but does not break easily.
Easy To Use:
1.To push the lead through the pencil, push down the button in the middle of the pencil. This will slide more lead through for you to use.
2. The lead holder is replenishable. To refill this, pull off 3/4" of the top, which will pull out the whole eraser. Refill the pencil and push the cap back on.
Comfort: There is a gel wrapping to help fingers be more comfortable when they hold the pencil. This gives a person a nice grip on the pencil and also helps fingers avoid pain.
Appearance: I really like the appearance of the Clear Point, Papermate pencil. It's purple, which is my favorite color, and it also contains a clear shell so one can see into the pencil to see how it works. It's a fabulous design.
Cons
Cost: This pencil is a bit pricey. It's about $2.50 to $3.00 for one pencil. However, I feel that it is worth the money because of how long this pencil lasts and how well it works.
