Fun Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My students love these pencils, mostly because of the fun colors. The pencils encourage creativity with writing and drawing. They give kids the option to use their imagination instead of their electronic devices. They work great. Lead doesn't break easily, and writes nicely and evenly. The erasers also work very well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a big fan of mechanical pencils and so is my daughter. She loves not having to worry about sharping pencils as she take pencils on the go with her. She is in love with the colors of the barrels. She told me that these are going to be her school pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the BIC Velocity mechanical pencils! I never have to worry about having a point when I write, and I absolutely love the fact that they come with extra erasers! Those are so hard to find. The feel of the pencil in my hand is so comfortable and they write very well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are the perfect tool for test taking, no need for sharpening and they erase beautifully. I had my daughter use these BIC pencils to write a list of things she needs for back to school and she said she is exited to share these with her friends because they are easy to use with the soft rubber grip and erase well, with a cap!! She loves that she doesn't need to sharpen them during class, she will always have a sharp pencil ready in class. She also loves the bright colors, these BIC Velocity pencils might get her excited to go back to school!

Great Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] these are the best pencils i have used in my entire life! just one pencil lasts about six months for me. they're super comfortable. the led rarely breaks. these are the absolute best and they're the only pencils i will ever recommend or use for the rest of my life. the only thing that doesn't last are the erasers, but they come with refills. i would use a separate eraser though because when you run out you're not going to be able to hold the led in and what's the point of that? just keep a couple of erasers handy.
also, never let anyone borrow them. they're too good to be given to others. if people are going to beg you for pencils, but never give out the velocity pencils. i treat mine like my own children. i'm just really passionate about these pencils, and I've never been passionate about pencils before.

Quality Mechanical Pencils

from Marksville, LA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great. I prefer mechanical pencils over regular pencils.
I always put these in my purse or backpack for college so I like pushing the lead back in so it won't stain other things in there.
I have found that most mechanical pencils stop working when I do this after a while, but these pencils still work great. They have yet to malfunction.
These are definitely better quality compared to others I've had and I like having extra erasers and lead. And great when I have exams I don't have to bring the wood pencils that leave marks everywhere and always break!
It's also comfortable in my hand and doesn't hurt my finger that I rest on when writing and doesn't leave a red mark from the pressure.

The best mechanical pencil I have ever tried!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are awesome! Being a home school mom, I am always watching my kids gets frustrated while doing their school work. Most mechanical pencils have constantly breaking lead and the lead either seems too short or too long. The BIC pencils seem just right. The tip looks like a ball point pen and gives the lead strength. There is a rubber comfort grip that is very comfortable to use. The lead writes smooth and dark but the eraser erases with ease. I also love the fact that they come with 12 extra lead and 5 erasers! I would highly recommend this item.
