BIC Velocity Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got to try these pencils out and must say that they write very smoothly. I do a lot of crossword puzzles and the eraser on these pencils do a great job! They erase very cleanly. The grip is very nice and smooth as well. I love the bright colors on the barrels. I feel that these pencils stack up a lot better than other mechanical pencils that I've used in the past.

BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils Rock at School

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils a few weeks ago and immediately started using them at home, but I wanted to wait until school started to post the full review. My children love mechanical pencils for their ease of use and consistently sharp points. Each child took a package of BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils into school. Typically they go through about one pencil a week and we are constantly replacing either the lead or the pencil due to eraser issues or cracks in the pencil itself. The kids have been in school for 3 weeks now and each child is still using their first BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils. I can't believe one pencil could have lasted this long. At this rate we'll only go through one package of the pencils over the school year instead of one package a month. So far my opinion of BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils is extremely positive and it appears they really are worth the slightly higher price point. Good job BIC!

My son loves these pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is very particular about what kinds of pencils he uses and sometimes it can get frustrating for me. If we don't have a pencil he likes, he shuts down. He has symptoms of Asperger's, among other things, so sensation is a big 'thing' for him. I opened the package of Bic Velocity and hoped for the best. He tried one out, and actually loved it. He said it felt comfortable in his hand and they were easy to write with. I will now have these on hand at all times with refills. I decided to take a couple to work because I use pencils on occasion and my coworkers do too. This pencil writes with a smooth line and it has quite a dark line. I love that they are refillable too. I am impressed with the eraser... a lot of the erasers you get on mechanical pencils do not work well, but this one easily erases my mistakes. The lead is strong and does not break easily and the tip is retractable. But the best feature? The comfortable grip. For myself, I love the fun colors that it comes in. I took the purple and pink and gave my son the yellow, orange and blue for school. He has been using these pencils for a couple of weeks now and they have really held up. #BicVelocity #GotItFree

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I homeschool my children and we usually use regular Bic mechanical pencils. We run through them pretty quickly as the leads always break easily and the erasers don't last long. These pencils will now be our go to pencils when we shop for mechanical pencils. The leads on these are very sturdy and the erasers last forever!! We can never have too many pencils in our household and these are perfect!! These pencils are also very cute and come in an assortment of bright colors which the kids seem to like. They fought over who got which particular colors, lol. Overall, I am very pleased with these pencils and will defiantly purchase more in the near future.

My kids are fighting over them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have two boys - a 14 year old and a 7 year old. They absolutely love these mechanical pencils and I don't know if I will ever get them back to the standard #2 pencils. Their poor teachers will probably have a time, especially the smaller one, telling them they can't use them for a standardized test, even though they technically can use them since they are #2 lead. I can say that I was able to try them for myself a couple of times, and really liked them. The lead was smooth and doesn't break easily like many mechanical pencils. This is definitely a must buy.

Smooth Operator...........

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity pencil is a great find. It holds up to my tough pressure and the lead never breaks. It is a smooth writer and erases cleanly. I took some to work with me and my Middle school child and High School child both took some with this this year. They both agree it is nice to not have to get up in class to sharpen a pencil. these pencils hold up to a lot of pressure and look great also. They come in great color choices that please everyone. I think this school year may have found its match in the BIC Velocity Pencil!
