[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We loved these pencils, my children who are 14 and 11 have been using them, (as well as myself ) drawing with the sharp point and no need to pick up pencil shavings. Usually I find shavings everywhere, I was hesitant to purchase mechanical pencils because they always broke so easily. These were great, they didn't break, and motivated the kids to write more :-) we packed a few for school, thank you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Vic Velocity Mechanical Pens are the smoothest, darkest mechanical pencils. You get five amazing colors to write with with twelve extra leads & five erasers. You have stronger lead that erases so clean. The pencils have soft grips & retractable tips.

Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The velocity Bic mechanical pencils fit in my hand comfortably and the lead lasted much longer than I remember. I would recommend these over any other brand by far. I absolutely love the selection of colors and the extra lead came in handy. Being left-handed I usually end up with pencil marks covering my hand after using any pencil but with these I did not have that problem at all. The Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils will definitely remain a staple in this household.

Cool colors on great pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 10-year-old fifth-grade daughter loves these BIC Velocity mechanical pencils. She hoards them in her pencil bag so her brother can't find them! She likes the bright, vibrant colors like hot pink, yellow, purple, orange and blue. But, no matter the color of the pencil barrel the lead is regular #2 pencil lead so she can use these pencils for all her homework. I got two packs for free and I have to admit that I kept a pack for myself too! I prefer mechanical pencils to regular pencils because I like the finer point on the lead instead of the wide, dull point on a regular pencil after you use it for a while (plus, no need to have a sharpener). My first-grade son still needs a regular pencil, though, because he pushes too hard on the lead and breaks it. But the Velocity pencils have been great for my daughter and me. The lead writes smoothly and erases well, which is important for her homework. I love, love, love that an extra package of lead and erasers was included in the package. Thank you BIC! I hate buying her pencils and then having to go back to buy more lead or erasers and not remembering what kind of lead to buy (.5 mm? .7 mm?). It's so easy that BIC included these extras in the package from the beginning. Younger kids definitely need the extra lead and erasers, so this helps.

BIC #1 Mechanical Pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are such an improvement from the pencils I had while going to school. I found them comfortable and easy to use. You can't go wrong with BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. I found the price to be right and they even come with extra erasers and lead refills. My son and daughter were both happy with the product. My daughter is always doodling, she loves that the different angles that she holds the pencil at doesn't hurt her hand. Also the colors they come in now are so much cooler than they used to be.

Writing in style

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils are the best that I have used by far. They write smoothly and just feel good in your hands. The lead doesn't break off easily like most mechanical pencils. It is definitely better than a regular pencil as no sharpener is needed. This is a great back to school supply.
