Review on πŸ“š Derwent Academy Sketching Pencils Set - 6 Degrees of Hardness - Metal Tin - Pack of 6 (2301945) by Lori Aguirre

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Wrong amount - right.

Derwent product is perfect. What's wrong is the fact that Revain has known since at least April that this product is misdescribed - it's not a box of 12 pencils. This is a set of 9 pencils. I bought it based on the descriptive title of this one and ignored the actual photo showing a 9. Since the pencils cost about $1.99 at the store, in this group it would cost another $6 to get the other three pencils I wanted. I could have and would have ordered a glass if the description had been correct. Unfortunately I can't return them as I need them now. It's a shame that while Revane seems to read the reviews (did they turn down my first one?), they didn't read them well enough to see that the first reviewer had the same comment about the wrong number of pens. I wish I had read that too - I came from my knowledge of the product, not the Revains product listing.

Pros
  • For thin, straight lines, choose a hard pen that holds the tip.
Cons
  • Damaged

Product came in plastic bag instead of a metal tin box as described. Very disappointed.
