[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. I am a mechanical pencil user and always have been but these pencils have help up better than the typical mechanical pencil. I do accounting work and I use pencils a lot because I have to make changes and this pencil is great. Also I like that the lead doesn't break as easy as other brands. My son liked to use them for his drawings too but I think that I actually like them more than he does. I will be buying these in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic Velocity mechanical pencils are a must have for back to school this year. They fit comftorbly in your hand and wrote well against the paper. The leas does not run or break as fast as other brands.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is a high school student and she has nothing but amazing things to say about the BIC mechanical pencils. The variety of colors is tasteful as well as the fact that it comes with extra lead is great!! She also appreciates the extra erasers, it's a great asset! I believe that for future assignments and the upcoming school year, she'll definitely rely on these fantastic mechanical pens.

exciting addition to the kids school supplies

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are above and beyond fantastic. They are everything I would want or expect from a mechanical pencil. The colors are fun and exciting which entices my kids to start using them. The barrel and grip are easy to hold for any size hand-- allowing prolonged use without any discomfort. The lead dispensing button is conveniently located at the grip, allowing small hands (or any size hands really ) to easily dispense the lead. My kids had no trouble quickly clicking the button, and my oldest commented on how nice it was to dispense the lead without having to adjust her grip. The erasers work fairly well, but you need to put more effort to remove writing from semi-gloss, or glossy paper because it tends to smear on that type of finish. The package comes with extra lead and erasers to refill the pencil, and my kids were both able to refill them with little issue. My kids enjoyed them so much that we ended up stocking up on several packs for their school supplies , as well as for writing utensil in the home.

Fantastic Lead, Nice Grip

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. I prefer pencils for notes and drawing, and mechanical pencils make traveling easier. No sharpener needed! Quick sketches, jot down a note, or write a rough draft, this pencil is fantastic. The lead doesn't stick. It's super smooth, so no stuttering like I've found when using mechanical pencils. My lines are easy, fluid, and smooth. No squeak either! The grip of this pencil is very comfortable. I'm impressed, a nice mechanical pencil that I've had decent results with my sketching and shading.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this came with replaceable parts. I hope these last a while as school has just started this week here and secondary kids go back after labor day. These seem to be sold out in the stores.

Broken Lead

from Dallas, GA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Apparently some kids just write really hard.. I cannot begin to tell you how many times during a homework session with my daughter and her friends that I heard the lead go pop pop. These kids must write with the force of bull in a china shop because while the pencils looked cool, they certainly couldn't hold up to the constant writing they were doing for math problems. I think I'll try the wooden pencils more

Love these pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are amazing. Wonderful to write with, fun colors, and a great eraser (which can be hard to find). Couple that with replacement erasers (also impossible to find once you use up the one that it came with) and replacement leads, and you have a great deal here. I like using them at work and my kids enjoy them at home.
