A great mechanical pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic Velocity definitely knows how to make school more fun for children. The new mechanical pencils are durable and there are five beautiful colors to choose from (Blue, Yellow, Pink, Orange, and Purple) they mechanical pencil pack comes with a refill tube of 12 leads, and 5 erasers. What I like the most about this pencils is that it writes smooth while making sure it is darker enough to see your writing, the eraser is very durable, and I like this because as a mom of a elementary girl it is important that the eraser last long and that it doesn't leave crazy marks all over their books or papers. My daughter was really excited while trying this pencils, she likes them so much, and loves how easy it is to write with them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils better than other brands my kids & I have used. They seems more sturdy & the tip doesn't break like the other brands. So far we all love sharing the colors and it makes writing more enjoyable. Very soft lead which is nice to write with - sometimes with other pencils the lead looks dark and ugly. My kids will love these for school & I already gave the coupons out to his friends too!

Smooth writing when it is needed most!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a middle school teacher at the beginning of a school year, I write with pencils more than I can explain....student information, classroom information, lesson information, etc. It is great to find a pencil that I can continually write with and not have to worry about repeated breaking or rough writing. The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils write smoothly and erase cleanly when I need them to. It was difficult to give a few of them up when both of my children begged to have some to start the school year off with because they both loved writing with them, too!! These are really fantastic pencils that I am hoarding in my desk and not allowing anyone to borrow just in case they try to walk off with them! ;-}

Writing has never been more fun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I belived that these new Bic Velocity pencils are excellent for their value. The package comes with 5 colorful mechanical pencils, it also has a refull tube that has 12 number 0.7mm leads, and 5 erasers to use. They offer a soft and confortable grip, the pencils writes smooth but it's dark enough. The lead doesn't break easily like others mechanical pencils that I have used. One of the things that I like the most is that even when the pencil is dark enough to see your writing in paper the eraser on the pencil erases cleanly without leaving a messy mark on your paper. These mechanical pencils are #2HB so kids can used them at school with no problems. I personally liked the colors, and how easy it was to write with them. One of the biggest reasons I would buy these mechanical pencils again is because they are not only great, but Bic Velocity has the motto that if you are not satisfied with the performance of their products you can return it to them. That's a win for me. I want a product that can be useful, that can last and that can make me happy as a consumer offering me ways to make their products better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved these pencils! Smooth execution and long lasting lead.The only thing I would change would be the eraser because it gives off a strange smell when you use it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being a college student myself and two kids in school this was the perfect product for us to try. i hate writing with pens but typically in college i have to but whatever I can get away with i only use pencils and typically go through alot of them and i will admit i am not a a big fan of mechanical pencils because i always felt like they were a waste of money having to buy lead a lot espcially when it comes to my children because they always break. the lead seems to be very thin and breaks quickly. although my daughter loves them. after getting the product for some reason the packaging immediately caught my eye I just liked the colors of the product and the way the extra lead and erasers were visible to the eye ! once i opened and actually touched the pencil I Liked the size of it and the feel most mechanical pencils are very flimsy and you know it's not gonna last long but this one was different . i loved the the coors and the lead was tick and very vibrant the eraser was wonder using the eraser you could not even see there was any mistake before. I love this product and have a different opinion about buying and using mechanical pencils but not all of them. the kids love them and being kids they like the option or be able to use a color of the same color shirt or shoes they are wearing that day! i will be buying this product knowing B.I.C is typical the only pens I buy i know i have a reliable,durable and affordable mechanical pencil!!! THANK YOU

Incredible Pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these pencils from BIC in exchange for an honest review. First of all, let me start by saying how much I love the quality of the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils! They are very sturdy, and fit comfortably in my (and the children's) hands. The grip is great! Most pencils have a very hard grip, one of those chunky rubber ones, or no grip at all. This one is just right. Not too hard, not too soft. No matter what size your hand is, these pencils will fit in pretty much every hand. My husband has pretty big hands, but can comfortably use these pencils. My children (12 and 15) also like the way the pencils feel in their hands. Besides the fact that the tip of the pencil always stays sharp, my daughter loves mechanical pencils because of how dark they write. The BIC Velocity pencils surpass most mechanical pencil lead because: 1) The lead hardly ever breaks. 2) It writes very dark without having to bear down hard. 3) It is very easy to change the lead. The colors are vibrant (which my son loves), and he can easily spot them in his pencil drawer among all the other pencils. They also have a very sleek design. The package comes with some extra lead (so helpful) and some spare erasers (which most pencil brands don't do). The erasers are easy to change, but when you try to erase something the eraser kind of turns in the thing that holds it. That's my only con, is that the eraser turns when you erase. These pencils are great and we have already bought some more packs for the children to use for school. I highly recommend these.
