SAKURA SUMOGRIP BLOCK ERASR B80 30/SE

These are actually more than hype - they are the real deal. When you homeschool young boys, you get to see the carnage of a penciled mistake in the student workbooks. With pink erasers, and white erasers, and basically every other style of eraser, you get an attempt from the kiddo - sort of - to erase a mistake, and hope it didn't destroy the work page in the process. You also get teeny tiny pieces of eraser dust - everywhere. That gritty stuff sinks into carpets or just sits there on the desk or in the pencil area until someone comes along to clean it. Add to that, what was supposed to correct a mistake by erasing completely, barely faded it with the half hearted attempts from a young kid to get on with finishing the work. What's left behind bleeds through to the correction making the entire thing an illegible mess. I stared at these a long time, digging in my heels like a sullen kid, just KNOWING that the claims made here were all hype and clever marketing. Equate this eraser with broccoli - you may not love it, but it's really good for you. Pros: - Less mess. The strings are longer and easier to gather up. - You stand a much better chance of fully erasing. The others still show pencil lines. - These last a long time with heavy use. The B80 size is perfect for a grammar school age kid. - Less pressure needed to erase = less damage to the paper. Significantly less. This cannot be overstated. - Seems to "smudge" less than others used. - Kids seem to recognize their value and seem to want to take care of them - they actually keep them off the floor and away from the dog, who is always looking to snatch up a random pencil or eraser. - Work just as well for colored pencils too. Cons: - Maybe "slightly" more expensive than a standard eraser, but it seems to be in a very small degree. Considering the significant improvement over it's primary job - "erasing" - it actually is worth the extra dime/quarter per eraser. This item in the 3 pack is about $4 total - It's cheap enough to test out without feeling like you are destroying the school budget. You won't go backwards or reach for Papermate/Pentel brand again, no matter how many they sell in bulk. You just won't.

Simplemente las mejores gomas que existen, ya las he pedido varias veces, en verdad casi no dejan basura y borran excelente.

best eraser i've used so far, erases easy, no smudging, little pressure

Honestly, this is by far the best block eraser I have ever used. Until I got the SumoGrip Block Eraser, I thought all erasers were just the same! I will say that I feel this will get used up faster, but I think it erases cleaner than old-school block erasers.

La calidad del producto permite un trabajo muy limpio, muy recomendable.
