[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My stepson was thrilled to see these before school started as he was actually excited to go back this year! I asked if he wanted only certain colors but he wanted them all to be put in his pencil case. Now that school has officially started, these are his go to pencils from his case. Plus, this is the first year we've allowed him to have mechanical pencils so he is just loving them! Some of the other kids have said they liked the colors and have asked to borrow a couple times, so I take that as a good thing! He has commented on the ease of writing and of course not needing a sharpener!

Few week review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these write smoothly, have a darker lead each time you write but when erasing you can still kind of see the previous writing, it's not as clean. I'm assuming due to the darker lead. All and all I would still say these are a great pencil for everyday use. I still would recommend them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a crossword puzzle enthusiast, I use pencils all the time and was impressed with the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil. It is easy to click on, the lead does not smear or break, and the eraser does not leave a flaky residue. I also like that the eraser comes with a cover so that I can carry the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil in my purse and not worry that the eraser might fall off. The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil is the best pencil I have ever used! I will continue to use this brand and tell all my library colleagues and book club friends all about the awesome BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Or so this is what my sixth grader says. Last year it was hunt to find decent lead pencils that he liked, they broke, the erasers broke off the pencils, we went through lead like crazy, it was not fun! I was so excited to try thr BIC Velocity.... They write great, we have not used excessive amounts of lead and the erasers are holding up fairly well. Also love that th packages had extra lead and erasers! So far it's all good!!!

Bic velocity mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We find these pencils easy to hold. The included lead writes smoothly without tearing the paper. It is dark enough to read clearly and erases easily. The design is cool" according to my kids and they like the eraser protector feature. I almost lost the eraser cover the first time I took it off though. My daughter did have trouble with the lead falling onto the eraser and pushing the eraser almost out of the pencil during erasing. All in all

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pencils are really great! The different bright colors are nice. They write nice and smooth. No smudging and when erasing it clears it all up. Almost can't tell that you had erased. The pencils are a nice size and girth. It makes it easy to hold and don't feel like your hands will slip. The extra pack of lead is nice. Overall my kids and I love them. We will definitely be buying more!
