Smooth writing, but not perfect
on August 30, 2016
Posted by: Tena13
from Ramseur, NC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good pencil. It writes very smooth, refills easily, and has a good feel. The colors are also bright which makes the pencil look nice. The writing is better than most mechanical pencils I have tried, including other Bic, Zebra, and Cross brands. There is no drag as you are writing which I have found with other mechanical pencils. It does provide a very smooth writing experience free of those annoying scratching sounds some pencils make on paper. With that being said, good pencil, but would I buy it for myself or my child? I would buy it for myself because I keep up with things, but my children (ages 7 & 13) do not keep up with things and these pencils are about a $1.15 each (although they come in packages of 5) from my local box store. The price would have kept me from buying them so I am glad I received them free to try. Also, a pet peeve that I have is having a cap on the eraser. WHY??? Is it to keep the white eraser cleaner? Although, I do not know why it is there, I find it cumbersome to have a lid on the eraser. It seems the eraser could have been larger without the lid. I would chunk the lid, but the pencil looks funny without it, so I am still removing and replacing it after each error.

My whole family loves BIC Velocity mechanical pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My child has had bad handwriting for as long as he has been writing, but since using these pencils his writing has gotten ten times better and it really shows! Before we were barely able to understand what he was writing, but know you can clearly see and read what he is saying all across the page. I have even got my extended family hooked on these amazingly awesome pencils! My cousin had the same situation with her child and she had literally been preaching to other moms within our community and neighborhood about how big of a difference? these pencils have made for our children and their schoolwork.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter absolutely LOVED these BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils!!! She hasn't put them down since they arrived. They write really smooth and don't break easily like other mechanical pencils! My daughter has used them for homework and her drawings. She loved all the bright colors and couldn't wait to show them off at school on the first day. We love how they're always ready to go and don't need any sharpening. The eraser refills are a wonderful extra!

Pencils that look like pens! BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Penci

from Houston, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow!!! just love these, we had a cute favorite that me and my daughter enjoyed and then these came into our lives to review. Thank you BzzAgent for introducing us to the BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils. They are so cool, they write so smoothly and seriously I looked at the tip of this pencil and thought I had grabbed a pen. My daughter loves the look, grip and ease of use of these pencils, plus it doesn't hurt that these come in bright colors too. These are our go to with homework and everyday writing that comes in the school yr. I can definitely see myself buying these again, also didn't hurt that they came with refills, not only for the lead but the eraser as well. Thanks again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids absolutely love the pencils. Not only are they fun colors, they are good quality. My son asks for mechanical pencils even year for school & I always have a hard time finding a good mechanical pencil & these are perfect. My daughter loves the bright vibrant colors. Both of my kids say that they write with ease & are comfortable to hold.

Love these!

[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.

BIC Velocity Pencils

from Eldridge, IA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. They write so smooth, no squeaking that can happen with other types. Mine came with extra erasers and lead and since erasers are always the first to go I was pretty excited. I have to hide them from my children because I want them to myself. :)
