Mechanical Pencils that actually last

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil and have them to my 1st and 4th grader. Usually my 4th grader has issues using mechanical pencils because he feels the need to press extremely hard while he writes, so I thought they may not be for him. I gave them to each kid and watched as they did homework. The pencils were able to work without issue under the pressure of my 4th grader. Not once did he have to stop because he broke lead but to push the end and get more led to continue. Not once did I hear “mom my pencil broke.” So I think we may have found something that will work for him. It also came with extra lead and erasers. These will definitely last in our home. Very happy with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for the Office

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have you noticed that there are no pencil sharpeners anywhere anymore? Sometimes I need a pencil for writing on documents. I work with numbers all day so I use pencil so I can erase and make changes. The Velcoirty mechanical pencils are perfect for my needs because it writes extremely smooth and it's dark so it's easy to see. The bonus is it erases completely from the projects I've been working on. I like having a pencil I don't have to sharpen so there's no more hunting for a sharpner or wondering if there's one near by.

My kids love them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My second and fourth grader each love their pencil. They have used it for drawing, writing, tests, etc. and it has worked great. The lead doesn't break as easily as other mechanical pencils. My only complaint is with the refill container. It is very difficult to open and even more difficult to close. If that was improved upon, this would definitely be a 5 star product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got these pencils and used them for work. I love the grip on the pencils and how smooth they write. I’m glad they came with replaceable erasers and extra led. Makes it easy for me to use at work all the time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These have become my favorites pencils because the grip is really comfortable. I also like that the lead does not break easily and I don’t have to constantly rotate the pencil. The colors are also my favorite so that’s a plus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven't used mechanical pencils since high school and I forgot how much I love them. These pencils, however, are fantastic.the grip is very comfortable and the erasers are surprisingly effective. Love that they came with extra lead as well. Would definitely recommend.

Great Mechanical Pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity is my new go-to for mechanical pencils. The size and grip are perfect for my hands giving a comfortable and natural feel. Not too thick, but not too thin at the same time. The 0.7 lead works well for me and writes smoothly. Lead comes out smoothly and I haven't had any errors or jams. The eraser is replaceable and comes with a nice clear cover. My favorite feature might be the combo replacement lead and eraser package that comes with the pencils. In the past, I was constantly losing one or the other. Having them together in an easy to use and easy to open package will be extremely helpful.
