[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children and I are enjoying the multicolored fun of the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. They are strong and stay sharp without having to constantly release more lead. I use pencil for practically everything, so I knew I was impressed when I threw out my entire pencil holder full of other pencils -- regular and mechanical. My children are staying focused on the task at hand instead of having to get up to resharpen their pencils. That's nice! When I opened the package, they each claimed a color and enjoyed having their very own.

Makes school supplies tolerable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids hate thinking about school supplies and honestly I do too. One thing eludes me every year, that certain color folder, that specific style of marker. At least the pencils were easy! These fun colorful pencils with their ergonomic grips and easy writing made the thought of Back to School" more tolerable for my middle schooler! She shared the pencils and the coupons with her friends. I think they will love them as much as she did."

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these mechanical pencils a lot.I like that you don't have to sharpen these and you that these can be reusable. My daughter likes to use these at school instead of a pencil.These mechanical pencils write nice and the led doesn't break easily.The erasera are refillable. I was glad I had a chance to try these mechanical pencils from Buzzagent. Like the pencils a lot. I highly recommend this product to everyone I know.

Great mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since middle school I have always had a strong preference for mechanical pencils. I currently have a small collection of mechanical pencils and these are a new favorite. They are very colorful and easy to use. I love that the package includes extra lead and erasers. The grips makes holding the pencil comfortable and with ease. I knocked off a star only because my kids preferred BIC's X-tra Fun Stripes pencils over this variety. Both are great pencils in their own right. I honestly loved both.

Great Pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that these pencils are great! They write well and they are very comfortable to hold as you write. They were a little big for my thirteen year old to hold but he loved them too. I would have given 5 stars but I really wish there was a 0.5 lead version.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils are worth a try. I really liked that the package of pencils comes with refills of erasers and lead. The colors are pretty, and I found it to be comfortable to hold and write with. The way the nib is designed I had less lead breakage, and I liked the cap on the end to keep the eraser from touching things and getting gummy. In order to get more lead out, you click the eraser rather than a bar on the side. I prefer this. My high school age son was less enthusiastic. He did like the eraser click function, but he did not find it to write as smoothly as he would like. He threw away the eraser cap because he thought is was annoying, and he did not find it comfortable to hold. If you are looking for a new style of pencils, I would suggest you give these a try and decide for yourself!
