Is it a Pen or a Pencil?!?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to BzzAgent and BIC, I was able to try out these Velocity Mechanical Pencils for free. When you first pick it up, it feels very comfortable - I keep thinking that I picked up a pen instead of a pencil! It is very easy to use and the lead does not break as easily as other mechanical pencils I have used. So far, I am very happy with these pencils. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there are times when I need a pencil with a very sharp point, and this is not as sharp as a regular pencil, but overall, I am very happy with these!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are a fan favorite in my household. My kids love the fact that it comes with eraser refills as well as lead refills. They also do not smudge on paper like most mechanical pencils do. The lead is of high quality. I would certainly purchase them again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love pencils. So when they received these, they tore open the package and started using them. I noticed how smooth it was to write with. My kids said they were easy to use and easy to find since they were very bright in color. Overall my kids and myself like the mechanical pencils better then the bic #2 lead pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is 13 and is using these pencils for school. He just started using them last week and loves them. People are borrowing them and commenting how fluid they operate. He said they erase well too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how easy it is to reload. I also love the erasers and how they do not leave a crazy noticeable mark. School started here and the kids lived their pencils.

BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils
on September 6, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've never been one to like or use mechanical pencils. My kids love them but get frustrated for the same reasons I do. I always feel like I have to press hard in order to read what I'm writing. And with mechanical pencils, when you press too hard you snap the lead and then have to stop and get more lead out, erase the mark that you just made when you snapped the lead and then finally start your writing again. It's a mess. So when I was given the chance to try BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils for free, I figured why not?! My kids were excited when the pencils arrived. We opened them immediately and the first thing we thought was that they were pens, not pencils. They seriously look like pens. It wasn't until we were able to press the lead out that we were convinced that these were in fact mechanical pencils and not pens. lol. My kids are 6, 8 and 13. All three of them each picked a pencil based on color and gave it a go. The first thing they agreed on was that how cool it was that these pencils look like pens. Their instant plan was to take them to school the next day and trick their teachers. (It's the little things lol). My 13 year old said he liked how comfortable the pencil was to hold and the other two agreed. They started out by writing their names on paper and as usual 2 of the 3 pressed super hard to the point that I thought the lead would break, but it didn't! I had a pencil as well and told them to write normally like they would if it were a normal #2 pencil. So they wrote again. And this time, without pressing hard, it was still dark just as if there were using a #2 pencil. Amazing! All three kids were impressed with these mechanical pencils and were writing with them on and off throughout the rest of the day. I give this product a 5 out of 5 rating for durability, smoothness, ease of use, comfortable grip and style.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are the best ones yet! My daughter loves the colors on them and I love the fact that they are #2. I have tried to buy her other fun colored pencils in the past and none of them have been #2. These being both pretty and #2 make them the best ones yet. The price is good and the ease of finding them in the store is even better.
