[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our kids have been in school for 7 weeks now and their BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are still going strong! We have purchased many different mechanical pencils over the years (with putting 5 kids through school) and they always tend to break easy, not load properly or just in general break! The kids now do not like to use the Old Fashion" #2 style pencils so we just had to continue to purchase new packages through out the year. The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are very well made. We have not had any problems with them feeding through or breaking on us. They write very smooth with a nice

Writing the right way

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are wonderful. They are easy to use, dependable, and colorful. I loved how dark they wrote on the page, but are still easy to erase.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using BIC Velocity mechanical pencils for a month, I feel I've gotten a very good idea of their quality and worth. I have used them myself, my children have used them to complete their homeschool assignments, and my students have used them during tutoring. They're very sturdy, with excellent quality lead and fantastic little erasers that erase cleanly. My children and students love picking out which color they want to use. They sell for a reasonable price, so I'm not worried when one goes missing. I've only found one problem with the pencils that has appeared in every single one we've used. The metal base where the lead comes out doesn't stay put. It pushes back up inside the shaft of the pencil when pressure is applied. It appears to be a technical design flaw, but it makes those pencils unusable. I'd love to continue using these pencils when they correct this flaw.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these are literally the best mechanical pencils that I have ever laid my hands on. The grips are extremely useful, and prevent me from getting calluses. The bright, vibrant colors that these pencils come in are fun, too. The eraser works very well, and the lead is strong and leaves a beautiful print. I love them, and I have recommended to close to everyone that I know.

Dependable!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children stated these were the most dependable pencils they have tried. They would normally have to refill quite often but not with BIC pencils. My 2nd grader even loved them. She even requested more to take to her best friend to share! They were easy to grip and refill.

Two thumbs up by a 15 year old....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our 15 year old daughter will only use mechanical pencils so the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils was the perfect test product for her! I have had a hard time actually seeing her handwriting with other pencils, but the BIC Velocity had dark lead which was clear to read. The lead did not break easily and the eraser was her favorite part (she said it last forever and doesn't leave eraser marks on the paper). As a whole we liked the BIC Velocity pencils and will keep them on our school supply list.
