BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils
on September 5, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great product. I'm a huge stickler for how comfortable it is to hold a pen/pencil so the soft grip was perfect for me. The pencil writes clean and smooth. My daughter was thrilled to have a few to take with her back to college. I gave most of the coupons out to friends and family and encouraged them to give them a try.

DISSAPPEARING PENCILS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really think I would have enjoyed these pencils a little more, if my children would not have made them vanish. Yes I have two boys going to school. They saw my pencils and argued over the colors. Who likes mechanical pencils the best. Who's class don't have sharpeners. I heard it all. I liked the pencil I got to try. the lead could be a little stronger. I write fast and with heavy pressure. The lead broke easy. I could not get use to the little cap on the eraser. I kept forgetting to take it off. I really don't need that. my son says yes on the cap because he says he looses erasers.

Bic Velocity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils in the mail I knew right away who I was going to show them to - my daughter. She is the queen of mechanical pencils and she has her favorites. Although we received them before school started she wanted to wait and use them the first day of school. Her first reaction was not good, but it did get better. When she first picked up a pencil she didn't think she would ever like them because of the notches in the rubber grip where your fingers go. The notches lined up right where her fingers needed to go and that bothered her. If she turned the pencil to grip on the non-notched area, the clip at the top would annoy her hand. After looking at it that evening I discovered that you can actually rotate the rubber grip so that it is more comfortable. It's still irritating to her to have to do that though. But on a more positive note she really likes how dark it writes. That's always a big deal to her when she tries out pencils or gets lead refills. So, kudos to Bic Velocity for some nice dark lead! She also liked that the eraser is not too flimsy. On some other brands that she has tried, the erasers break right off the first time you try and use them. My daughter thinks the plastic cap over the eraser is an annoyance, so she doesn't keep that on it anymore. Although there are some nice features to this pencil, overall, the mechanical pencil queen" still prefers Papermate Clearpoint pencils."

My kids LOVE these!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were excited to use these as they were starting the school year. They really liked them and liked them better than previous versions of Bic mechanical pencils I have bought. I used to buy lead like crazy, I don't know if it was just my kids being hard on the pencils, or if the lead is a better/thicker material, but we are really happy with these pencils. The erasers do a good job of erasing, but do seem to wear down pretty quickly. They also said they like the grip, and said it seemed to fit their fingers. I would definitely buy these again!!

great pencil to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this is a great product and my kids loved it. The writing was bold and dark and not as light as some of the other mechanical pencils I have seen. My son usually presses a little too hard while writing and this breaks the lead but this seemed string for him. I love the colors they come in, so bright and nice. My kids loved the product.

Awesome writing pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best mechanical pencil I have used in a long time. I love how smooth they write. They are xtremely comfortable when writing. They practically glide across the paper. I love that they have a cover over the eraser. I have a tendency to lose them.
