[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are definitely sturdier than most mechanical pencils. We had a lot less issues with breaking lead. They erase pretty cleanly though not as well as I'd hoped. My daughter who has hand tremors found them difficult to hold though, and the refill lead was a bit of a pain to use. However we really loved the fun colors and high quality lead and erasers!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these pencils, they are really smooth and easy to write with. I don't use pencils very often but I have to say these are great and I would definitely buy these. I gave a pack to my son and he's loved them, he only uses mechanical pencils and he also said these were smooth. Love them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils free for review. My daughter absolutely loves the colors and ease of use for these pencils. It is nice that they also include refills as well. I notice that they are slightly stronger than other mechanical pencils when writing, which for a school student is key.

These write dark

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My whole family usually prefers regular pencils because mechanical ones are typically made with thin leads that snap easily. We love the way these write! They glide across the page and the leads don't break. They write dark, too. Only downside is being a lefty. There's nothing that prevents the lead from getting on the side of my hand.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are a new favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is a freshman in high school and uses mechanical pencils pretty exclusively. The kind I used to buy her broke easily and the eraser made a big mess every time she used it. I had her try BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils and she was very impressed. She said they write very smoothly and the eraser doesn't leave big smudges all over her paper. We'll be using BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils from now on.

True Colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fun colors, you can't pick just one! Comfortable and soft to hold. Smooth writing and erases clean. Must have for the coming school year. I usually avoid mechanical pencils for a few reasons. I tend to put a lot of pressure on writing tools, so the lead usually breaks on me resulting in a lot of lost product. It also is hard to refill the pencils trying to fit the lead into the tiny hole. My concern is people will used to cheap mechanical pencils that can't be refilled which they're used to throwing away then they run out of lead The Bic Velocity mechanical pencils, I have not had a problem. The lead seems to be very sturdy, and has not broken on us. That is a major bonus because I really didn't like wasting the product, even if it was just little pieces. The lead writes really smooth, and does not smear. It is even when writing, not too dark or too light. It is very comfortable to hold. These are so durable that they should last for along time. They are great for any age person to use. I would definitely recommend these pencils.

Best mechanical pencils that we have ever tried!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these pencils to try and review. These are great pencils. They are very sturdy, and well made. I think they will hold up to my children's abuse, and last much longer than the average mechanical pencils that I have bought in the past. These are easy to use, and nice and colorful! I would definitely get these pencils again, and plan to put them on my back-to-school shopping list for sure this year! I would highly recommend these to anyone! #BICVelocity #GotItFree

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once I opened my bzzagent package and saw the #BICVELOCITY pencils and coupons, I knew my excitement would not be as great as my kids! My son was excited to have a package with extra leads. My daughter was excited about the bright colors. I liked them due to the grip and width if the actual pencil, which allows for much smoother writing.
