Incredible Color Variety – My Daughter Loves Them!
I purchased this 300-color set of KALOUR professional colored pencils for my artistic daughter, and she absolutely loves them. The range of colors is amazing, the pigments are vibrant, and the soft cores make blending and shading effortless. ✅ Pros: – Massive selection of 300 unique colors for endless creativity – Soft cores lay down smooth, vibrant color – Great for blending, layering, and shading – Works well for both professional artwork and beginner practice – Sturdy case keeps all pencils organized and protected ❌ Cons: – None so far—my daughter is thrilled with them 💡 Tips: – Perfect for sketching, detailed coloring, and large art projects – Keep pencils sharpened with a quality sharpener for best performance – Store in the included case to keep them organized by color family 🧠 Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a gift for an artist or want a huge range of colors for your own projects, this KALOUR 300-color set is fantastic. The quality, vibrancy, and variety make it a joy to use—highly recommended!

High quality colored pencils
The pencils come presharpened and out of this entire set none arrived with a broken tip and only two had the tips break when using them. Beautiful colors and they color so smoothly. Very comfortable to use and fun. The trays are nice to keep the pencils at hand although I'm not sure why they aren't grouped by color when they ship. The included color chart makes it easy to know exactly what each pencil will look like, once you color it in, so you can easily pick the right pencil for shading. This is a great gift for anyone who enjoys drawing or coloring, or for yourself.

So many colors!
The best colored pencils I've ever owned. Great quantity for the price. They don't break easily and can get pretty sharp. The core isn't too soft but soft enough to color lightly. Lots of fun to use!

Impressive
First things first: I'm not an artist. I'm an adult colorer, and my coloring is not art. In all honesty, I purchased this set because I decided to put my best colored pencils--and some of my favorite budget-friendly sets--away for the most part. I'm stuck in a situation where I little control over who is around my stuff--and how they treat my possessions. I'm tired of vanishing pencils and broken pencil cores. Yes, Prismacolor Premier and Polychromos can be replaced one at a time, but it gets really expensive, really fast. Especially since I can't buy open stock locally (no art supply stores in my area), and have to order online. I have some Brutfurner square pencils--and really like--but they've been hard to get from Amazon, at times. And, I have them reserved for a few books that they work the best in. I also really like MarkArt, but I have a few plans for them. All I really wanted, when I purchased these, was a larger set with lots of colors. Something to replace my go-to every day coloring set (I'd trade off between square Brutfurner and MarkArt), for times I wanted to preserve the other sets (especially my beloved, favorite set, Polychromos). Particularly, I wanted a big enough set that if a pencil or two vanished, it wouldn't be a big deal. I chose this three hundred set, e thought $50 to $60 isn't budget-friendly for me, until you look at the per pencil cost. I'm not going to lie, however, $50 is a real stretch on my limited income. I didn't have to--or really want to--really like these. The problem is, the more I've used these, the more impressive they've actually become. First of all, they feel really pretty good going down on the only paper that my expensive Brother laser printer (late 2018 purchase) can print on: regular copy paper. The toner still wore off the page as I swatched, but the pencil work itself went well. And, I hate swatching with a passion. The first thing I noticed was that the number on each pencil is pretty low, instead of up by the Kalour logo, where it'd be more convenient, for the long run. I was using the A Tailored Image chart (by Stacy Bledsoe). As a result, I put the pencils in the chart order, and put numbers stickers on each (also securing each sticker with a bit of transparent tape over it), back by the logo. The pencil names and numbers will disappear over time, due to sharpening, but I'll still be able to identify each pencil. As much as I loathe swatching, I think it's a really good idea, for this set. Some of the colors aren't what you'd expect, from going by barrel color, core color, or name. I really wish pencil manufacturers wouldn't use metallic lettering on pencils, because it makes it difficult for some of us to read. There are a few pencils here and there that sharpen really unevenly, because the cores are really poorly centered. However, quite a lot--maybe even most by now--of my full Prismacolor Premier 150 set are dramatically off-center. Since I can't hand pick open stock in person, and have to order online, I get what is sent my way. As a result, I cannot fault this Kalour set too much, for the same issue. Especially since it's not even close to be every pencil that's affected. There is a nice color range, including a wonderful amount of pastel colors, and even some muted, earthy colors. Sometimes earthy colors are missing altogether from inexpensive sets. Many times in cheaper Chinese sets, most of the brown lean very heavily to reddish browns, but there are quite a few rich browns here that don't. That's really, really nice, because some of the more expensive sets lack light colors and nice browns. I haven't found very many pencils that are scratchy no matter what kind of paper is in play. In fact, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I don't remember any pencil always being scratchy. Even Prismacolor Premier aren't totally immune to scratchy pencils. Often Eggshell and a few of the darker greens can feel scratchy. Some people say that Prismacolor's Electric Blue is always scratchy, but that hasn't been my experience. So far, these pencils sharpen very easily, and well--even with a hand sharpener. I do feel like a lot of the individual pencils may be softer than people credit them for, because I'm not very heavy-handed, but have to sharpen regularly. That said: no, they're not Prismacolor Premier soft. These are not the Prismacolor Premier killer that a lot of people seem to be looking for, but at a fraction of the price. I've worked with these on a variety of coloring book paper. I've colored multiple images on both "Amazon paper" (Jade Summer's Fairy Homes, RJ Hampson's A Frog's Tale, and The Colors of Fall by Stephany Elsworth) and Creative Haven paper (Teresa Goodridge's Gnomes books). They worked great for me on both. They also worked well, in smaller spots tests, in a variety of books. In a Kerby Rosanes' book and the American edition of Johanna Bradford's Rooms of Wonder (which is supposed to be the same paper), I thought they went down exceptionally well, even though the paper is one of the smoothest I've experienced. They also worked well for me in Johanna Basford's Enchanted Forest (American edition). Previously, the only other pencils that had worked really well for me on that yellowish paper were Brutfurner square pencils and Prismacolor Premier, so that's exciting. These also did a really nice job for me in the American edition of Johanna Basford's Worlds of Wonder. In Johanna's newest book, Small Victories, I felt like a few colors resisted transferring to the page a bit, but I have dexterity issues (so it could have been me). Others felt fine in that book. Small Victories uses the same paper for the American and UK edition, so maybe it's not something I'm used to yet. What I found really impressive was that these really worked well for me on the paper in Lulu Mayo's _A Million_ series (In this instance, A Million Little Monsters). I hate that paper most of all, because only Prismacolor Premier pencils, Bambino clay crayons, and Albrecht Durer feel natural to me in those. I also felt like these did really well for me on Colouring Heaven magazine's newish paper, but I haven't had too many issues with Polychromos or Prismacolor Premier pencils on it either (but again, I'm not an artist). I also thought these played nicely with the paper in my Japanese edition of Symphony of Cute Animals (Kanoko Egusa). Finally, they also felt nice to work with in Rita Berman's Asian book. The blended and layered pretty well, depending on user skills and paper limitations. Overall, I think this is a very nice set of pencils. I'm glad I purchased them. I've become more emotionally attached to them than I wanted. Now I actually care if a few vanish. :-p I still feel like, at their price point--the 300 is set isn't a budget-friendly set--for those with a fixed income... Until you look at the per pencil cost But, it is a really, really good value. However, "budget-friendly" is subjective. Those that can comfortably afford really high-end artists' pencils (and set maintenance, through open stock)--like Lightfast and Luminance--probably see Prismacolor Premier and Polychromos as budget-friendly. For most coloring adults on tight budgets, however, those sets aren't realistically priced options, they're luxury sets. I'm very pleased with this product.

Blend nicely
Great color, blends beautifully. Definitely worth the money and more. Awesome color assortment. Almost wish I got the 500 pack.

Great colors and very smooth
So far I really like these. They are soft and can write as smoothly as a pen if so desired. I didn't care for the plastic trays so I bought a case for them but the trays and tin are good quality. I like the sample page so you can quickly reference colors.

Riesige Auswahl an Farben, super Preis Leistungsverhältnis und tolle Ergebnisse. Die Farben sind richtig schön "satt" und hier absolut jeder auf seine Kosten. Habe mir das Set als Anfänger in der Zeichnerei gekauft und bin rund um happy. Absolute Empfehlung :)

The colors are gorgeous, with so many alternatives to choose. The only problem is that they are a little bit waxy, and you cannot layer them so much. And they are not working on any kind of paper. For ex they are working great on johanna's basford books, but not so much on amazon paper

I was originally so glad to receive my second package of this 300 KALOUR pencils set, but I am now very disappointed with what has been delivered to me!
