First of all, I like that these come pre-sharpened and ready to go straight out of the box. Quality is better than Crayola or Rose-Art (my least favorite). Color is pretty good, but my main complaint is the texture. These are not as smooth as I would like, and the tips do tend to snap off. Overall, it's a good intermediate set for any budding artist, just don't expect professional quality.

There are more reviews posted under the 12-color set.

I purchased several sets of 24 after reading those reviews, as they are affordable

Christmas gifts, along with the great coloring books sold by Amazon.

Last Christmas my older granddaughters IMMEDIATELY began to color. The 20ish

granddaughters-in-law commented to them how relaxing it was when, several weeks

later, they were coloring together. This year they will also receive sets.

A problem mentioned in reviews was that several color-sticks slid out the back,

so...

I took my daughter's nail polish and painted each top, placing them in a

water glass to dry without smearing. A second painting gave a nice finish.

This should keep the stick from sliding out either end due to the vacuum

effect.

Among the colors in the 24 are silver & gold; very nice selection.

Received this in the regular mail, and they were banged around so much, that no matter how many times I try to sharpen them, the leads break off, I am so mad and the cost for me shipping these back, yea, laugh out loud! DO NOT ORDER THESE THROUGH THE MAIL, THEY WILL BE NO GOOD FOR USE!

Honest reviews on Prang Pre-Sharpened 7-Inch Colored Pencils, 24-Color Set (22240)

Good alternative to the more expensive brands. Very smooth with good overlay and blend capability. Colors are true and saturated correctly. Relatively durable taking repeated abuse before the 'lead' breaks in the case from impact. I enjoy them and have found them adequate for my artistic needs.

I may have to get another set for myself! We used them on "coloring night"; I thought the colors were vibrant and smooth.
