I'm usually skeptical of Amazon basics art supplies, but these are actually almost prismacolor quality pencils. Very pigmented and blends like butter! It's much more affordable compared to other expensive coloured pencils sets.

I love this eraser so much! I bought a pack in middle school years ago, and now I'm a college student, that's how long these things last.

These have never failed me. It's affordable, and it does its job! You don't need an expensive pencil to make good art. It's your skill and technique.
