[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a fan of always writing in pencil in my calendar and note taking ( so barbaric, right!) I love these pencils. They write smoothly with a great color and coverage. The eraser is great for my ever changing calendar and I love the mechanical lead. I will never go back to wood pencils that break when I out can't find a pencil sharpener and the eraser is gone when you need it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before I received these pencils, I thought they we're going to be like every other mechanical pencil I have purchased. I was hoping that they sent it with a lot of extra lead. I received these Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils and they looked awesome! The colors are very bright and look like fun to use. Once I opened the package, the smooth grip was a surprise. It's not like any other plain mechanical pencil I have ever seen. The lead seemed much stronger than the lead that I am used to using in other mechanical pencils so I am sure these will last much longer than the old mechanical pencils I have used. You know, the ones that the lead runs out before the eraser. The eraser worked as expected, great! I didn't notice any leftover lead residue or eraser marks. I showed them to my two boys who are in school and they quickly grabbed the colors that they wanted and packed them in their school bags. My husband used one to make some notes, and he must have liked them because he took 2 to work. These are a must have in the office and at home. Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I we're doing my homework and we both loved the padding of the bic mechanical pencils I have carpal tunnel and it usually hurts my fingers but these don't hurt my fingers at all. They erased all of our mistakes clearly couldn't tell anything was there

BIC Velocity Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are the best lead pencils I have ever purchased for my kids. Super strong leads. Sharp points. Easy to find refillable leads. Resonable priced. The bright cool colors. And most of all the eraser that actually fully erases.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My high school kids are exclusive mechanical pencil users. They each have their favorite brands. When these arrived, both were excited to give them a try. The lead is nice and doesn't break too easily. The sturdy, wider shaft grip on the pencil makes it easy and comfortable to write with. The eraser works well and comes out easily to add new lead. We would definitely buys these pencils again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Writes very smooth and the lead seems very heavy duty. Got these for my son to start off the school year right. He tried them and said these are must haves from now on.

Cute mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pencils are really cute and bright. I think they are a nice quality but not over the top great. Neither of my kids is willing to swap them for their favorite mechanical pencils. In a side-by-side comparison, there isn't much difference in the size or shape of the pencils, just the clicking mechanism. I also think the gripping area is more narrow. Both of them are lefties and I don't know if that makes a difference or not.

Great Pencils! Clean Eraser

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this pencils none stop at work for weeks now. I love the eraser mostly. I mean - lead is lead - but erasers can sometimes leave marks or residue - these pencils are clean and provide an empty space once used. I have recommended them to many people and have given a few away to co-workers during meetings. Where we work they always buy us the cheapest pencils and we fly through them because the lead breaks, erasers don't work well and so on. These have been a wonderful change of pace in the office!
