[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are good quality and well made pencils. However I don't really see a difference between these and other similar pencils.

BIC Velocity really is superior to other mechanical pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW. To be perfectly honest, I wasn't sure that a mechanical pencil would make much difference to me, one way or the other. I mean, a pencil is a pencil, right? WRONG!! BIC Velocity really is better, pure and simple. The rubber grip is so comfortable, the eraser works easily and completely, and the lead is as good as lead from a wooden pencil. Love these! Is it worth paying more for this brand going forward...YES! I've bought gazillons of BIC pens over the years, and will now be buying BIC Velocity as needed for myself and my 3 students!

I'm In Pencil Heaven Thanks to BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do bookkeeping for a small company, and prefer to use Mechanical Pencils for work I do in the ledgers. However, the leads normally break, and gripping the thin barrel makes my hand hurt quick.
Now, enter BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. On first look, I like the colors and that the pencils come with lead and eraser refills!
Upon using, I love that the lead writes smooth and consistent, and is dark enough without having to press hard. The eraser works beautifully, making taking care of errors a breeze.
My favorite thing about the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are the soft grip. It makes the pencil a little bigger and keeps my hand from cramping up with extended writing.
Definitely my favorite mechanical pencil yet. I know what my desk is going to be filled with.
Thanks BIC!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these pencils. I like the bright fun colors and also the ease of using them. They don't hurt my fingers after writing long periods of time and they last for a long time. These are easy to locate in stores and also a great price.

Drawing & Writing Utensils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do a lot of writing/drawing and I have been thrilled to use these mechanical pencils for my projects at home. They are easy to use and the lead is strong for the projects I use them for. All the colors are fun to use and I love how they feel on my fingers while using them. If you make a mistake then erase it with the little eraser on the end or refill it with the extras the pack comes with. My child is planning on using these in school this year and is really excited to have some fun pencils to show their friends this coming year!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the pencial however the eraser feature did not make me happy. Every time I use the eraser it pushes the lead out of the pencial.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these mechanical pencils are great. I thought they were way better than your average mechanical pencil. They were easy to write with and didn't break like a lot of mechanical pencils do. I definately recommend them.
