Ticonderoga Sensematic Mechanical Pencil, 0.7mm Lead, Silver, 2 Count

These mechanical pencils have got to be some of the coolest ones I’ve used! The automatic led is so handy and I’ve never had an issue with it propelling and negatively affecting my writing. Sometimes one size gets sharper than the other, but that’s pretty typical for a mechanical pencil and an easy fix. It’s super lightweight, easy to hold and write or erase with, and it’s durable. Ticonderoga is THE pencil brand and I’m thrilled with the quality of this product! I’ve used it fairly regularly for the past few months and it’s still going. Very affordable for the quality and functionality - this is probably my new go-to mechanical pencil, and I may have also gotten some of my co-teachers bought in!

I absolutely love this mechanical pencil. It writes smooth and feels comfortable in my hand. I take manual notes daily, and I haven't had to refill the lead from my original purchase in Aug. I love the way the lead comes out automatically vs having to click to progress the lead. I believe this is the factor in how well my lead is lasting. It progresses the perfect amount! My only con, if I had to add one, is it doesn't have a clip to hold it in a pen/pencil holder of an open note pad. That said, I have dropped this pencil numerous times and it hasn't broke! Totally worth it!

Excellent eraser and as good as a No 2 pencil except better- No wood shavings to deal with as you never have to sharpen this pencil! Better than other mechanical pencils as you never have to click a button. Never jams. It is gravity fed so you might need to tap it on a surface if you have been writing a lot upside down but otherwise it is always ready for use… until the led runs out. However re loading is as simple as taking the onboard storage tube out by the eraser, removing a led refill and dropping it down the hole and putting the refill tube with it’s eraser back into place. Literally a 7 second move and you are back to writing. I am so frustrated Staples no longer has them available on demand. However I am grateful I can still get them through Amazon. Pity they no longer come in standard yellow pencil as I really enjoyed the look alike. Though I can understand people making mistakes and sharpening the empty pencil forgetting it wasn’t a regular wood one so I suppose the distinguished silvery gray is better.

I was really looking forward to getting these pencils because Ticonderoga is my favorite brand for wooden pencils and erasers, and this was the first time I'd seen that they had a mechanical pencil in their brand. I like using a mechanical pencil, but often the erasers on those smear/don't wipe clean when you use them--specifically on newsprint or puzzle books. As far as the eraser goes, this one seems to be as good as the traditional ones on Ticonderoga pencils. It does a good job and doesn't smear. But the way the mechanical pencil works it only allows just a tiny bit of lead to come out at a time, which sometimes causes me to tear my paper if I don't angle the pencil just the right way. The pencil does stay sharp, but it doesn't have the smooth writing feel that their regular pencils do. I probably won't be buying these again, but I will continue using the ones I have.

These are easy to use and feel like regular pencils in the hand. They are not bulky like most mechanical pencils. The fact that I do NOT have to constantly click and adjust to advance the lead in these Sensematic pencils is a gift! The lead does not get wasted due to unwanted breaking because these pencils consistently have the correct amount of lead advancement while you write. I will be purchasing more Ticonderoga Sensematic mechanical pencils because my kids have asked to use the first pack I bought.

The Ticonderoga Sensematic Mechanical Pencils are my new favorite! The 0.7mm lead is just the right size, not too thick or thin, and it writes smoothly every time. I love the silver design; it looks sleek and feels nice in my hand. What sets these apart is the automatic lead advance, no clicking necessary! It’s super convenient and makes writing or sketching feel seamless. Plus, they’re durable enough to handle daily use without any issue. With two pencils in the pack, it’s a great value, and I always have a backup ready. If you want a mechanical pencil that’s both stylish and functional, I’d totally recommend these!

However, the graphite requires pressure on the tip to extend meaning that the plastic is constantly scratching on the paper. It is pretty smooth but not as smooth as other mechanical pencils. I took off another star because they only work vertically. You can't do sudoku laying down or write on the wall.

Better than the pentel orenz at for sure. The plastic advancing tip reduces scratch compared to other advancing pencils that use metal drafting sleeves. But, the stock lead is TERRIBLE. Swap it out immediately for pentel hi-polymer 2B or softer. Also, only load the pencil with ONE lead at a time, or else it might jam. Keep the rest in the storage area in the eraser piece. I took one apart for science. DO NOT PULL OFF THE FRONT PIECE. The mechanism is in the tip (black and blue piece), the rest is a feeding mechanism designed so the long back piece pushes a single lead into the clutch. The eraser cannot be removed.

very easy to use and top quality. I'm addicted to these pencils!

Not as practical as I would have thought for a primary student. However for adults they're great.

Ticonderoga Sensematic llegó en la fecha programada. Es tal como lo describe el vendedor. Y es más de lo que esperábamos. Lo disfrutamos día y día tanto en casa como en el trabajo, y los menores en la escuela.

Es una buena opción si lo que quieres es simplicidad, el mecanismo funciona correctamente. Ahora bien, lo compré como una alternativa al Pentel Orenz Nero, más que nada para probar el mecanismo de avance automatico, y debo decir que no me termina de convencer. En general este lápiz es bueno y lo recomendaria como una alternativa al Pentel (salvando ciertas diferencias).

These pencils are awesome. I love that you don’t have to keep refilling the lead and they just keep going and going and going. I used them in my classroom and they are the best.
