Misleading,
I don’t consider this a service issue as much as a complaint about Amazon’s offer to sell this product, which is so misleading as to constitute a substantial defect.
The offer of this product appears to be for the 24 count of Crayola’s long colored pencils (long meaning around seven inches or 17.5 cm, like most manufacturers’). Go to the product site, though, and (as of the time of this writing) you’ll see the product described without reference to number of pencils in the box . . . what’s worse, the default product photo is for Crayola’s FIFTY count box of pencils; other “available images” are of the 12-count, 36-count, and yes, 24-count.
It is in no way the consumer’s fault if s/he orders this product under the misapprehension that it’s for a fifty-count box of Crayola colored pencils. If this happens to YOU, kindly take it up with Amazon and ship the product back. Complaining here may make the victim feel a little better, but it won’t get action. Nothing speaks to a vendor like return of its product, especially on the grounds that it wasn’t as described (in fact, the returns procedure, which is quite easy to go through, gives that as one specific reason for return).
Roundup: As for the product itself? The kid-oriented box of 12 or 24 colored seven-inch pencils has practically become a staple product. Crayola color pencils, while bold, run to vivid colors rather than deep colors, and exude a child-friendly optimism. The “lead” inside them is strong by the standards of color pencils. In the absence of bells and whistles like an eraser tip or a built-in sharpener, you can safely buy by price unless your child’s school says otherwise.
Supplemental Info: For literally just few dollars more, though, there are many brands in the under-nine dollar range to which an eager art student can be introduced: Sanford’s “Col-Erase” comes to mind because they sharpen well and have ferrule-tipped erasers attached, just like any standard black #2. Above twenty dollars: if kids start to develop a desire for blending hues and shading color laydown, there’s even a brand (Prismacolor’s “Scholar” line) specifically designed to fill the gap between the kind of product under review here and the pricier, pro-level “art stick” that can be bought individually or in sets here, or at places like Dick Blick and Michael’s. Buyer beware? Maybe. Buyer with tons of options? Definitely!

|Difficult to sharpen,
These are hard to sharpen mechanically. The machine just kept on eating them. The color-material is too brittle. Had to use a knife.

|Why are you even looking at the reviews… you know what to expect.,
They are the branded color pencils that you have been using since preschool… what could be more said. Presharpened, basic color pencils with great quality and firm grip, I would recommend it even for AP art classes for they work like a charm.
