Use Over Pens
on September 15, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have replaced my pens with these pencils! They write so smoothly and erase so perfectly that I use them to write all my daily notes and simple reports. The lead doesn't smudge which makes it easy to read! Love the, will never go back to other pencils!

Fantastic Mechanical Pencils!
on September 15, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know who loves these BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils more...the kids or adults! I too am excited about how great they work an make writing more fun for myself! haha. I keep them in my pen/pencil holder at work also and so many people have asked to borrow my colorful pen. I show them it's a cool pencil and they want to know where I got them from. Coupons that were included with this kit have been flying off my desk for people wanting them. The lead stays even and smooth and we have never had a issue with it breaking. Just wearing down with all the writing we are doing with these. The erase is designed well and works great. No messing marks or torn papers. I, especially, like the cushion on the barrel part for easy gripping. Fantastic, well-made pencils!

Still love BIC
on September 15, 2016
Posted by: Brooka1020
from Port Allegany, PA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I was growing up I always used BIC mechanical pencils in high school and college. I love that they are still around and still #2 so they can be used on state tests and whatnot. I also like how this comes with extra lead. I remember having to buy it separately. It seems like kids are writing less and less in school these days, so I'm imagine this pack lasting for quite a while (unless they get lost). The reason I don't care for this specific BIC mechanical pencil is that they are a little bulkier. I always preferred the black or clear ones that were slimmer. I also don't understand why there's a cap on the eraser. I can't remember if BIC did this 10-15 years ago, of if I was using another brand, but the cap always fell off or got lost, which is why I'd prefer for there not to be a cap at all. Overall, I'm pleased with these and would recommend them to anyone, but would personally still use the slimmer style.

Comfortable Grip

from Simi Valley, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried these out myself and thought they were very comfortable to hold. I don't need to constantly readjust my grip. The lead is great. It's not too light and does not break easily. The eraser is nice and soft. I feel like the quality of the eraser says a lot of about the quality of the pencil. The eraser actually erases and doesn't just leave streaks. The pencils themselves are colorful and vibrant, which makes them easier to not lose. #GotItFree

Continue to Impress
on September 15, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I continue to be impressed with the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils. I don't usually purchase mechanical pencils as I have always felt that the lead breaks too easily and therefore I tend to go through the extra lead quickly. Kids especially have always tended to press too hard and Snap-broken lead. I have to say I am impressed with how well they have stood up to the test of kids. And the bright colors make them even more fun to use. I will definitely be purchasing these in the future.

from Spring Hope, NC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our kids have a new must have" item in their backpacks this year. We tried the new Bic Velocity mechanical pencils and we are hooked. Super fun colors and they feel nice while you write. Pick up a pack and see for yourself! They even come with refill leads so no running back to the store during homework time at night."

3rd grader does great with them
on September 14, 2016

from Mansfield, OH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My third grader push down pretty hard when he writes making it hard to use mechanical pencils. I gave him one of these to try and I was impressed that he didn't break it nearly as much as he was with other mechanical pencils. He was excited because he got to use them. The colors are nice colors too.
