Great pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bic Velocity mechanical pencils are great. They come in bright colors, write very smooth and if you make a mistake, it erases very easily. I have shared them at work and everyone too here likes them. How nice they write and the bright colors that they come in. My kids too like them, they can't wait to use them in school this year. Especially with their test taking.

Great, comfortable pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a teacher, I write a lot. Although I typically use a pen, for math, I use a pencil when helping kids. I hate dull pencils, I'd rather write with a crayon! So, when I received these BIC Velocity mechanicals I was more than happy to take them to school. First, if all I appreciate the styling of the pencil. It is a nice looking pencil. I like the colors and the shape. The shape makes it comfortable to hold. It has an ergonomic design that provides comfort. Most importantly, I like the way it writes. The lead feels substantial when I'm writing. I haven't had an issue with breakage as I often due with mechanical pencils. I also really love the idea of the eraser and lead refills being together. That is convenient. My students keep asking if they can have one! Overall, I am certain I would buy these pencils again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the original pencil in the past. I love the grip at the end of the pencil makes it nice for holding. I love the fact that you can replace the lead and eraser. Also that is #2, so that my kids will be able to use it in school.

Kids Fight Over Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot believe how much my kids love these #BicVelocity mechanical pencils that I #GotItFree to try. They use them every single day for homework, schoolwork and journals. They fight over the pencils every day! I love the extra erasers & lead that come with them. Also like the eraser has a cap on it. I never seen that before nor have I seen replaceable erasers which are great for homework assignments. They are easy to use & both kids have easy time replacing leads. My son likes to write in his journal every day with these. I cannot have too many of them. The replacement erasers and lead are in a plastic container together so you have everything you need right there.

So far I love them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was waiting till the kids start school to have them uses them but decided to use them myself. I love the way theses pencils write. Seems the " lead" is stronger and less likely to break repeatedly like the cheaper machanical pencils. The only thing I don't like is the clear eraser cover due out the fact that I place it down and have trouble finding it or knocking it off the counter.

Great Pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] School has started, and we love the Bic Velocity Pencils. The finger grip is easy on your friends. Love the cap on the eraser. They are so easy to use; and are so smooth. Love not having to sharpening a pencil in the middle of working. My daughter uses it not only for school work, but also when she is working on drawing for Art class. Great pencil. The lead doesn't seem to break as easy as some other pencils. And I love that; so I'm not having to buy more lead in the first week of using.
