[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love mechanical pencils, but this one is perfect. Smooth writing and awesome array of colors, yes I have an obsession with different colors. lol I can honestly say, this is the pencil for me and my family. Including my 3 grandsons, who are constantly drawing. My little artists in the making. Thank you BZZ and Thank you Bic, for letting me try this amazing product!!

Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils. We homeschool and use pencils daily during the school year. We have used Zebra and Pentel mechanical pencils for the last several years and I thought they were the best. Not so! I was amazed at how well these write. The lead does not break easily when a lot of pressure is applied. They write very smooth and dark. The erasers work well in removing the pencil marks completely. We love the variety of colors available. Each child has their own color and I have one too! We look forward to sharing the second pack with our homeschool co-op. Great pencils!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils have a comfortable grip and write smooth. Love to use these for work and my daughter loves to use them in school. The nice different color barrels makes them more fun to use! They seem better than a lot of other brands we have previously used.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love them! Gave one to my daughter and she thought they were the greatest in the world. Great grip. Soft writing. I would want to know how much they are first. I think they would be more expensive. I love mechanical pencils. This is one on the best I have found.

Not a refill fan
on July 27, 2016
Posted by: Hebronmommy
from Petersburg, KY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC Velocity pencils are made well. They advance the lead well - not too much or too little - awesome! They write with a nice dark lead line and erase well. Since it's not school time for us yet we haven't used them a lot, other than testing them out on some drawings, thank you notes, and shopping lists. My concern is that my 6 kids are used to cheap mechanical pencils that can't be refilled which they're used to throwing away then they run out of lead. So, I'm worried that all of our BIC Velocity pencils will end up in the trash can before I can refill them. They may very well end up being Mommy's pencils so that I can better keep track of them and use them as intended.

A "Greener" Mechanical Pencil

from Petersburg, KY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kudos to BIC for making a refillable mechanical pencil that's affordable. I've always felt wasteful having my kids throw away so much plastic, so I'd like to see if we can make the transition back to these and away from the cheap throw away versions. Now, for the Mommy Challenge of keeping track of these pencils or finding some other way to mark them and make them stand out from the others so that I can track when they're empty and when they need refilling. Looking forward to this new challenge and trying to reduce our school garbage.
