[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I teach ELA (English Language Arts) at a middle school. I provide pencils for my students to eliminate the I don't have a pencil" excuse when it comes time to write in my class. The pencils I provide are the standard wooden graphite pencils. This practice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils are worth a try. I really liked that the package of pencils comes with refills of erasers and lead. The colors are pretty, and I found it to be comfortable to hold and write with. The way the nib is designed I had less lead breakage, and I liked the cap on the end to keep the eraser from touching things and getting gummy. In order to get more lead out, you click the eraser rather than a bar on the side. I prefer this. My high school age son was less enthusiastic. He did like the eraser click function, but he did not find it to write as smoothly as he would like. He threw away the eraser cap because he thought is was annoying, and he did not find it comfortable to hold. If you are looking for a new style of pencils, I would suggest you give these a try and decide for yourself!

Pencil Perfection!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I seriously love these pencils! They are incredibly easy to use and write very smoothly. The lead doesn't break very often at all. They also erase beautifully. I have been buying the less expensive mechanical pencils for years and let me tell you after using these, there is a HUGE difference in the quality and not a ridiculous difference in price. I will most definitely be purchasing these pencils again, and plus my view of BIC products as a whole went up due to the quality of this product.

One last review before it closes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So we've been using these BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils like mad the past month and half, and they seriously hold up to the job! They are still providing comfort while being held by my kids, the colors are still fun and the lead is very superior. What's awesome about the pencil is the ease of holding it, and the quality of the lead. The lead hardly breaks when being used and it provides very smooth writing that is very legible. I couldn't be more happier with these pencils and plan to buy more and tell more people about them!

Strong for sure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these mechanical pencils. I don't like to reach for a pencil and find it needs to be sharpened, so I prefer the mechanical ones. I have been using these for a couple weeks now and I love them. I press pretty firmly when I write and I find that the stronger leads make a big difference. I've always had problems with lead breaking but not with these pencils. Definitely my new go to mechanical pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these to my daughter for the start of school and we were pleasantly surprised on the quality and ease of use. The writing is smooth and good for homework. I just wish it was easier to advance the lead, as it takes a bit of time when doing homework.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great mechanical pencils and a great sharp dark script. Easy to hold with finger grips built right into the pencil. Awesome colors in this pack and perfect for drawing and writing and easy to erase. Strong and durable and easy to refill, great for the new school year for any age group. We love how creative everyone can get with this new fun writing tool.
