Picky teen gives two thumbs up

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son has favorite pencils". He will turn the house upside down to find one. He left his "favorite" one on vacation so when I got these I asked him to try it out it could be his new favorite. He doodles all the time and he has been using the one I gave him. He said he likes the gripper part."

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Going back to school has been rough, but having pencils my kids actually like using makes life a little easier!!! My high schooler loves them and has no problems with breaking lead and loves he smooth erase. My middle schooler is rough on her pencils and pushes too hard, frequently breaking the lead. The other issue my middle schooler has is pushing he lead out when she erases (again, too hard). Overall, I am pleased!

Great Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I popped two of these pencils in my 7th grader's backpack one evening, forgetting to let him know about them the next morning. To my surprise, it was the very first thing my middle school son commented on after getting home from school. He thought the pencil grips were wonderful and couldn't believe how easy it was to write with these new BIC Velocity pencils. (He is used to getting generic mechanical pencils.) He liked the capped eraser, as his erasers are always getting dirty in his bag and leaving smudges, that his teachers dislike, on his papers. He wanted to trade me the rest of his generic pencils for the BIC Velocities. He was not thrilled about the purple and pink ones, and wanted to know if there were packs of plain black ones. If there aren't please make some, BIC!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 7 year old was excited to take these pencils to school! She loved the colors, I loved the refills! They seem to hold up better than the cheaper brands, the lead seems more sturdy and they don't break as easy. We will definitely be buying some more. They not only come with extra lead but also extra erasers! Awesome!

Smooth and long lasting

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC Velocity pencil has become my go to pencil for doodling, note taking and every day writing. The lead is strong and smooth - it doesn't break like other brands. The grip is perfect and the eraser is a clean eraser - no black streaks here. i would absolutely recommend this pencil for students, teachers, and even accountants like myself.

A++ for my girls

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils came at a great time since my daughter is going back to school. She's been using them for homework and so far, they have been great. It is nice that we don't have to worry about finding a sharpener, and the replacement lead and erasers are a big help. She just entered 2nd grade and feels like a big kid" with these mechanical pencils. I feel the lead breaks a little easy
