[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is in 4th grade, he was excited to use these pencils. He enjoys the mechanical aspect, the lead was not too think, it was comfortable in his hand, and the eraser worked well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are super easy to grip and write with for long periods of time! They are a little wider and the strong lead helps beat the frustration of the lead breaking in the middle of a word. It erases super easy and the fact that it comes with extras helps make the pencil last longer!

Bic Does it Right

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter had the opportunity to experience the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils and really hit her Senior year running with assignment after assignment. Luckily she was prepared and said the mechanical pencils were a nice touch.... Not only are they colorful, but they have a nice stong lead and a smooth writing texture that she commented on and said she liked. She also shared a few with her friends so they could experience them. Thanks to Bic for starting the school year on a positive note!

Smooth and Steady

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I appreciate everything about the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils that I received for free, from Bic, in return for my honest opinion. The retractable tip and the comfort grip are the two best assists! The retractable tip guides lead to the paper and then stabilizes the lead as you write, this makes for a smooth pen-like feeling. The comfort grips, along with the fact that the pencil is round, makes for painless writing. I remember the mechanical pencils from my younger years, when they were squared off, and by my second paragraph, my fingers were cramped and branded by the seams of the pencil. The innovated technology of a rounded pencil and built in comfort grips are extraordinary! I received 2-5 packs of the Bic Velocity pencils, each pack came with 12 extra non toxic leads and 5 extra non toxic durable erasers. The leads are 0.7 mm, and #2 hb making the perfect for school testing. These pencils are simply remarkable, going above and beyond my expectation of a mechanical pencil.

Daughter stole them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I only had them a few moments I was using them to draw a cartoon. My 16 yr old who loves mechanical pencils saw them waited for me to get up and get a drink and she stole them and ran off. She says they are great, she likes the study feel and the grip. My only complaint is the leads don't hold a decent fine point without breaking.

Purposed Serve,..Nothing Special

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While the colors were refreshing and fun the overall product wasn't much different than previous mechanical pencils. My son is hard on them and while these served the basic purpose of a writing utensil they didn't hold up as I had hoped. I was expecting a sturdier lead and less shedding from the erasers. On the plus side they did provide replacement erasers which is rare. In speaking with other Mom's they shared similar experiences. So, ultimately they write and erase as needed but nothing beyond what any other mechanical pencil has to offer.

Picky Pencil Person Pleased!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I was in.college a few years back, I tried many many mechancal pencils. And, as an accounting major, many erasers. Some pencils had teeny-tiny erased. I felt like they were mocking me. Some lead broke constantly so I had to start carrying refills with me everywhere. My hand would cramp and I have permanent callouses. I wish in had the BICVelocity pencil then. As an accountant, if it isn't done in excel or accounting systems, I am using a pencil. Some may even call me a pencil snob.....well....we have a winner! What I love about the BICVelocity pencil (aside from the fact there is a pink one!!!!) is the nice big eraser that completely erases! I love the nice, squishy grip.....no more cramps. I also love the dark lead that doesn't constantly break. All in all, this gives my super expensive mechanical pencil I got for graduation a run for the money!!!
