I didn't buy these for my self, but for my wife. She said they are the best she used. With that said, you can't go wrong with these color ed pencils for the price. Keep in mind, cheaper sometimes means better quality. And a higher cost does not mean better Quality.

I am an artist and colorist and have purchased dozens of sets of pencils over the years including these. These pencils are the same pencils that are sold as Colore' (which came out first with a few different colors) and are one of my favorites. These pencils are manufactured in China. These pencils have not been tested for lightfastness. These are soft core wax based pencils that have Basswood for the barrels. The core is very soft and creamy and blends, and layers, quite well compared to other similar off brands. The colors are vibrant and rich. The Castle Art set lacks yellows but makes up for it in pinks and purples while the Colore' brand has a nice range of greens, blues and yellows but lacks as many pinks and purples. These pencils do lack any identifying marks, there are no color names or numbers on each individual pencil so I suggest you do number them with a permanent marker on the barrel and create a sample sheet for reference. Overall excellent quality pencils for adult coloring and basic art. Read full review

Must try these pencils, only complaint, no #, no name. Wish they had a bigger set. Blend well, lay well. Great price.

great range of colors, the pencils are stout, good fit, easily sharpened to a fine point without crumbling, doesn't require a lot of pencil to resharpen, very nice trays for the pencils and nice box. I would recommend this to any one doing any drawing etc.
