[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have two boys - a 14 year old and a 7 year old. They absolutely love these mechanical pencils and I don't know if I will ever get them back to the standard #2 pencils. Their poor teachers will probably have a time, especially the smaller one, telling them they can't use them for a standardized test, even though they technically can use them since they are #2 lead. I can say that I was able to try them for myself a couple of times, and really liked them. The lead was smooth and doesn't break easily like many mechanical pencils. This is definitely a must buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity pencil is a great find. It holds up to my tough pressure and the lead never breaks. It is a smooth writer and erases cleanly. I took some to work with me and my Middle school child and High School child both took some with this this year. They both agree it is nice to not have to get up in class to sharpen a pencil. these pencils hold up to a lot of pressure and look great also. They come in great color choices that please everyone. I think this school year may have found its match in the BIC Velocity Pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. They write smoothly, erase cleanly and have a comfort grip to make writing comfortable. To top it off they come in fun colors and you can refill both the lead and the erasers over and over again! Comfort and money saving, a definite plus!

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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids and I LOVE the Bic Velocity mechanical pencils! The lead doesn't break every two seconds like our other mechanical pencils. The pencil is a nice weight and my kids have all of them in their backpacks! Thanks!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before i get the Bic Velocity Mechanical pencils i would like to know how much they cost. And if they are made in USA. The smoother and darkest leads makes the Bic Velocity mechanical pencils a good value and the fact that they have a soft rubber grip makes tyen easy to use!
