BIC Velocity For The Puzzle Enthusiast!
on September 15, 2016
Posted by: sammydj
from Woodland Hills, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a crossword puzzle enthusiast, I use pencils all the time and was impressed with the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil. It is easy to click on, the lead does not smear or break, and the eraser does not leave a flaky residue. I also like that the eraser comes with a cover so that I can carry the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil in my purse and not worry that the eraser might fall off. The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil is the best pencil I have ever used! I will continue to use this brand and tell all my library colleagues and book club friends all about the awesome BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils!

One les frustration for homework!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids loved the colors of these pencils. There were plenty of to choose from so there were no fights over who got what. Yay! The lead is nice and dark and easy to read but also erases smoothly with rubbing so hard it rips the paper. The lead didn't break constantly like others we have tried before and the pack came with lots of extra erasers and lead. These pencils were great addition to our homework routine and we'll definitely be buying these again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I teach ELA (English Language Arts) at a middle school. I provide pencils for my students to eliminate the I don't have a pencil" excuse when it comes time to write in my class. The pencils I provide are the standard wooden graphite pencils. This practice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils are worth a try. I really liked that the package of pencils comes with refills of erasers and lead. The colors are pretty, and I found it to be comfortable to hold and write with. The way the nib is designed I had less lead breakage, and I liked the cap on the end to keep the eraser from touching things and getting gummy. In order to get more lead out, you click the eraser rather than a bar on the side. I prefer this. My high school age son was less enthusiastic. He did like the eraser click function, but he did not find it to write as smoothly as he would like. He threw away the eraser cap because he thought is was annoying, and he did not find it comfortable to hold. If you are looking for a new style of pencils, I would suggest you give these a try and decide for yourself!

Pencil Perfection!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I seriously love these pencils! They are incredibly easy to use and write very smoothly. The lead doesn't break very often at all. They also erase beautifully. I have been buying the less expensive mechanical pencils for years and let me tell you after using these, there is a HUGE difference in the quality and not a ridiculous difference in price. I will most definitely be purchasing these pencils again, and plus my view of BIC products as a whole went up due to the quality of this product.

One last review before it closes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So we've been using these BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils like mad the past month and half, and they seriously hold up to the job! They are still providing comfort while being held by my kids, the colors are still fun and the lead is very superior. What's awesome about the pencil is the ease of holding it, and the quality of the lead. The lead hardly breaks when being used and it provides very smooth writing that is very legible. I couldn't be more happier with these pencils and plan to buy more and tell more people about them!

Strong for sure

from Tyngsboro, MA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these mechanical pencils. I don't like to reach for a pencil and find it needs to be sharpened, so I prefer the mechanical ones. I have been using these for a couple weeks now and I love them. I press pretty firmly when I write and I find that the stronger leads make a big difference. I've always had problems with lead breaking but not with these pencils. Definitely my new go to mechanical pencil.

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these to my daughter for the start of school and we were pleasantly surprised on the quality and ease of use. The writing is smooth and good for homework. I just wish it was easier to advance the lead, as it takes a bit of time when doing homework.
