Review: Best colored pencils for comfort and quality - I am addicted to these colored pencils. The color laydown is so much better than cheaper brands and the triangular, coated barrel makes them so comfortable to hold and use that I don't have to use pencil grips on them for my arthritic hands. Very little pressure is needed to lay down smooth, creamy color. There are 24 colors, which may seem like too few, but they harmonize perfectly together in terms of shade and color value. They are great for adult coloring, for both large and small spaces. They can be sharpened to an ultra sharp point with my TripWorhy electric sharpener. They can also be sharpened well with a metal hand-held sharpener, but it is more difficult. It's worth it for sheer convenience to use an electric sharpener, that gives a perfect point that lasts a long time. The folding easel is compact and makes it easy to keep near me while I color. I think it would make a perfect gift- a set of Stadtlers and a coloring book, that can be used in a chair, at a table, or even in bed, with the easel on a small nightstand. Great German quality. I gave up on cheapie colored pencils- these last longer and give much better results!
Review: Crazy good pencils!! - I bought these pencils on a whim because some in the coloring community were using them and I liked the bright colors. I wasn’t expecting much since I mostly use Prismacolor and Polychromos. With that said I can’t believe how awesome these pencils are! I received them about two weeks ago and they have been the colored pencils I’ve been using the most. They pair up great with Prismas and Polys. They are wonderful by theirselves. Great color lay down, smooth and very soft but they don’t break. Excellent for fine detailed work. Now if they only came in a larger set with more colors. You won’t be disappointed if you try them. They are definitely good enough for professionals.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do these compare to prismacolor?**
A: Both are wax-based pencils. However, the Prismas come in open stock (you can buy them individually) and there are more colors available. I would rate Prismacolor Premier pencils higher than these. However, since both are wax-based, if you are going to be doing professional artwork, you might look at oil-based pencils like the Faber Castell Polychromos line. They do not have the "wax bloom" problem that commonly occurs with wax-based pencils, and are superior in terms of lightfastness. Another oil-based alternative is the Lyra Rembrandt Polycolor line, which are cheaper than the Polychromos but are still oil-based and very nice pencils indeed. However, the Staedtler Ergosoft pencils are not what I would call bad, and you can still do amazing work with them, as can any artist looking to master their tools. Finally, Prismacolor pencils currently have a poor overall quality rating due to broken cores being a common issue. Since they're available open stock, you might pick up a few and see what you like before diving in. I always recommend buying small sets first.

**Q: What are these like in comparison to the Staedtler Colored Pencils, 24 Colors (144ND24)? Are these really worth 4 times the price?**
A: Totally different item. 144ND24 is color pencil in paper box. 157SB24 is ultra soft non lip grip color pencil, triangular barrel packed in stand-up easel case.

**Q: How do you sharpen these if they are triangular??**
A: most pencil sharpeners will work on triangular pencils, you just have to find one that is both sharp enough to hone your pencil to a fine point and the correct diameter. Or you may be able to sharpen your triangular pencil with a sharp knife.

**Q: Where can i find the names of the colors in the 24 set?**
A: I have purchased this item and the list is not contained within the packaging or listed on the product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Pencil, colors, durability, blendable, vibrant and priced right!
*by S***C on August 13, 2016*

WOW! Loves these pencils ! These are the pencils recommended by Johanna Basford, so I had to try them. I have no regret, they are really nice and I love this case they come in with this set. It snaps open and securely closed!.. and it will stand up on your desk if you want it to. The pencils are comfy to hold because they are NOT round, they are triangles and have a nice weight and grip to them. Best of all is the color cores are surrounded by a nice white protective barrier that helps prevent breakage. Don't you just hate it when you have to sharpen away half your pencil because it keeps breaking!?? (Prismacolor!) I hope these pencils do well and that Staedtler will start bringing them out in larger sets with more pencil colors! As for coloring, they blend well and will allow for layering. These basic colors are bright, vibrant and this is a decent quality pencil at a very affordable price. Yeaahh!! 5-24-17...Remains a great pencil.....THE lowest priced soft core blendable pencil available......Come on Staedtler.....make these in larger sets with more colors to choose from!
