Bic Velocity--Great mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love these pencils. The grip is very comfortable and the lead quality is dark (.7 lead) and does not easily break. Writing is smooth and no lead shavings on the paper. The pencils come with refillable lead and erasers. The size of the pencil fits smaller hands as well as adult sized hands which is a bonus for the whole family. With school right around the corner, these pencils will definitely make the school supply list.

Perfect pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this mechanical pencil is perfect! It writes smoothly for staters. Next in the long line of fantastic quality is that the lead doesn't break as easily as some other pencils we've tried (I'm looking at you pentech). In addition, the additional lead loads easily while again not snapping. Aso if that wasn't enough awesomeness, BIC decided to include additional erasers in the package, genius idea.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] looking at the packaging, I was under the imprison the lead would be the color of the pencil. sadly, I was wrong. as far as mechanical pencils go, they are fairly standard. their only feature that sets then slightly apart is how much lead comes out with each click: it's a tiny bit less than the competition, but I had less tips break off

Beyond mechanical

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My tween/teen kids love the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. I barely had them out of the BzzAgent box and they both absconded with them. Traditional pencils aren't as cool with big kids. The mechanical BIC pencils are especially great for my high school kid in his architectural drawing class. He is impressed with the ease of use and sharp lines.

Great for School and Work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With mechanical pencils it seems you can't have a good pencil for a cost effective price. You either pay $5 or $6 dollars a pencil or you have to treat them as disposable. The new BIC Velocity mechanical pencil is the cost effective quality product I have been waiting for. The features make the BIC Velocity good for me and good for my children at school. The lead is .7 and can be used on standardized tests. This also means it writes well for note taking and the lead doesn't break all the time. There is a grip cushion that helps prevent calluses on your writing finger as well. This is an excellent pencil for my children and I.

Pencils can be fun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils were received at our house with excitement. School has officially started and no more cheap mechanical pencils for us. The Bic Velocity Pencils are much stronger and more durable which makes them a great addition to the school supply list. They last longer and can stand up to be shoved in a pencil case or at the bottom of a backpack.

Must have...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is very picky when it comes to his writing preferences. He absolutely loves these mechanical pencils! The lead on these does not break easily like other brands. Plus, the soft grip does not hurt his hand, which allows him to write longer. There is a smooth glide when writing, and errors are easily deleted. We love these pencils!
