[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are perfect for getting kids excited about going to school again. The colors are fabulous and they come with extra lead and erasers so that it saves me ti.email later in the year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I believe these are the best mechanical pencils out there. Typically, because I'm a hard writer, the lead in the other" brands of mechanical pencils break when I write. The BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil lead did not break

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These arrived just before my two youngest kids started back to school. My daughter is a college sophomore and my son is a high school freshman. The both grabbed them quick and LOVE them. The words AWESOME and SO COOL came up. The informed me that these pens are MUCH better than the cheap ones I have gotten in past years and requested that I buy these from now on. Way to go BIC Velocity.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these are wonderful pencils. My daughter had summer work to do. It was so hard to get her motivated. But once I let her pick her color of Velocity she was totally on board! Who would of thought a pencil would motivate a 10 year old?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love using these pencils. They are great for all 4 of them, ages 6 to 11! Some lead pencils are bulky and doesn't fit well in a childs hand but these were a perfect fit for all of them.

My go to pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC definitely knows how to make a great, durable product with the BIC Velocity #2 Mechanical pencils! First of all the packaging is inviting. With 5 bright colors (blue, yellow, orange, pink & purple), extra erasers (in a tube) and extra lead (in a tube) it catches your eye. These mechanical pencils have an attached eraser, eraser cap, plastic grip, metal tip (where lead appears), easy access to refill lead and the tip of the pencil unscrews if the lead gets stuck. This is the smoothest, darkest writing mechanical pencil. It erases cleanly (no smudges & doesn't leave any eraser particles behind). The pencil is extremely durable & comfortable to hold (not thin and cheap like other brands). The plastic finger grip is nice but I personally would prefer an even softer finger grip. One great feature is the metal (NOT PLASTIC) tip where the lead comes out! My 10 year old has gotten very frustrated with mechanical pencils because he complains the lead always breaks or it's uncomfortable to use. He LOVES these BIC Velocity mechanical pencils though! He hasn't broken lead and hasn't complained once about his hand cramping or hurting. Making a side-by-side comparison I notice that the BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are thicker, have a plastic finger grip and have a metal tip where the lead comes out. BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are the only brand for our household! These pencils are built to last! I have dropped them countless times and they come away working perfectly. Other brands that I have used have cracked upon dropping or the plastic tip where the lead comes out has broken off. To add lead is super easy: remove the eraser cap, pull out the eraser, drop in the lead! Also the tip of the pencil just below the finger grip unscrews in case the lead gets stuck (though this hasn't happened to me). If I had to find a slight negative, I don't really understand the need for an eraser cap because it's clear & can get lost easily. Regardless, BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are a great product and the only pencils I'll be sending to school with my kids. I'll be spreading the word to friends and family going out to buy school supplies!

Velocity pencils work great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils are great looking. They come in all the fun colors and work very well. The lead is strong and doesn't snap off easily as in other competitor pencils. The pencil writes smoothly and yet firmly. I found the lead to be very soft and yet strong. It didn't seem like I needed to write a few words before it became nice and round. It was smooth from the very first start. The extra easers provided with the pack is very thoughtful and will certainly come in handy some day I am sure, but for now the easer behind the pencil will do just fine. It erases off easily and doesn't leave any scoff marks. I will give it 4 stars though because I found the device itself to be a little heavy to pick up and write with.
