Overall, great pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils have overall been great for my kids this school year. It is always a hard decision when school shopping trying to figure out what pencils to get when the isles are packed with other parents trying to find the perfect pencil also. Thankfully, i didnt have to do that this year since #BICVelocity sent us free pencils to try out! #GotItFree The packaging was easy to open and my kids instantly loved the bright, inviting colors. They have been using them now for a few weeks and only one issue. The pink pencil in one pack gave my 10 year old daughter some trouble when trying to get the lead down. Kind of like it hangs up on something inside when trying to click it down. It is still usable, but we leave it at home now so she does not have anymore trouble at school. They like how they erase and write, and I do too! My 5 year old doesn't have trouble holding this pencil unlike some others we have tried. He would prefer a green pencil though! All in all, these pencils are great and i will definitely be buying more.

One of the best mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are great. I pencils writes smoothly and the led of the pencil doesn't break as fast as others if you press down to hard. Your able to write clearly not like other pencils. I would like to recommend these. The only bad thing is if the pencil breaks you have to take off the top piece pull out the led and go from there.

School Approved

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves the New Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils! We love the colorful design, the lead is strong, glides on smoothly for a clear, strong line, and doesn't break as easily as other mechanical pencils, the rubber grip makes writing extremely comfortable so my finger's can write comfortably for hours and my princess can write in her journal, write stories, songs, during school, and really good drawings of wolves. I love the cap on the eraser. She returns home from school with clean erasers, not the dirty white ones that she has from carrying in her pencil bag and mixing. Thank you also for the extra lead! That's a great bonus. Also the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils also have been school approved as they are Bic #2 pencils. Thank you for encouraging children to write by making writing fun by changing to assorted colors Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencil! Thank you also for the coupons! I used two and gave the many others to friends and friends. Nothing but great remarks about Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencil in assorted colors. Once again, I highly recommend Bic Velocity Mechanical #2 Pencil! Try and see and feel the difference for yourself at a very reasonable price! #BicVelocity #gotitfree

Great Mechanical Pencil
on September 6, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were able to try out these pencils for free in exchange for our honest review. My teenage son uses nothing but mechanical pencils, so his input was very important to me for this review. They look cool, which is always a plus, but looks aren't always everything! The lead is strong and durable. I'll admit, I usually buy the cheap multipacks of pencils and you definitely get what you pay for. I am constantly hearing the lead snap while he's doing his homework. But the lead in the BIC Velocity pencils was actually stronger and held up to his intense algebra homework. The eraser worked nicely and actually did its job without smudging or leaving residue. It's a decent size too! Usually mechanical pencils come equipped with a tiny little nub of an eraser that is used up after a few mistakes. My son loves the eraser cap, and thinks it's a nice asset. I think that part will be a matter of preference, because for me, I found it to be a little bit of a nuisance, because I'd always forget to take it off before I attempted to erase something. I don't think it's a nuisance enough to knock the rating down, though! The pencils are a little pricy depending on where you're purchasing them, but you do get extra lead and erasers! Also keep in mind that you get what you pay for!

Not Your Ordinary Mechanical Pencils

from Clarksville, TN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are absolutely wonderful. Yes I did get these for FREE, but that doesn't alter my honest review on items. BIC Velocity was compared to my other mechanical pencils. BIC held up to my pressure of writing and the easy to grip end. My son told me he will never use any other mechanical pencils but Velocity. And he's a picky child! Well done BIC!
