LION Translucent White Plastic Erasers, 24 EA/Box, 1 Box (P-100)

Being left-handed is supposed to correlate to genius, but while the jury's out on whether it's causal or coincidental, the verdict is damning when it comes to smudging. Even the smartest southpaws feel me, amirite? I have tested some thirty-odd different erasers, from caran d'ache down to pink pearls, looking for THE ONE. With so many reviewers waxing nostalgic about Puerto Rican teachers demanding only Lion erasers, I had outsize hopes for the island of enchantment's gold-standard school supply. They erase marks reasonably well, but require more pressure than other basic erasers, in my experience. This might be the reason for their popularity with younger children - they aren't likely to tear through paper with heavy handed erasing the way a more abrasive rubber might. I'll probably give the other two to my friend's kindergartener as I doubt I'll get much more use out of the first one.

These erasers are decent, but they're nothing special. In fact, they're quite expensive for what you get. I've tried tons of different erasers over the years and there are much better alternatives out there (Tombow Mono, Faber Castell, and Sakura Sumo Grip are all superior to this). So I'm not sure why some people hold this particular eraser in such high regard when they're only slightly above average.

these erasers are awesome, they don't smudgebeen using them 30 years since dad brought one home from officeamazon package of 3 is good amount in case you lose oneprice is fair and free ship if you include it on order $25 or moreI was very happy to find lion erasers listed on amazon.cathey last a long time and you can use blue cover to keep them clean

I was a bit disappointed in these. They erase ok, but not as well as the common white vinyl erasers.

It’s not big, expensive
