High Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are much better made than what I normally buy. They have helped me decide its actually worth it to put out a little more money on my mechanical pencils. They come in a great array of colors the kids like and have a nice grip built on them that makes them more comfortable to use. The lead is well made, goes on smooth and easy and does break as easily as other leads I have tried. These are really durable and will last my kids much longer than other mechanical pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At this time I cannot imagine my daughters using a different mechanical pencil during the school year unless BIC decides to invent an even better version of this VELOCITY model. The lead writes smooth and dark, which is an improvement over any other lead my daughters have used to date. They no longer use any other pencils as they now prefer to use only these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our kids have enjoyed using the new BIC Velocity pencils. They write smoother and darker than other pencils and the lead seems stronger.Due to my own eye problems, I like that they write darker, as it is much easier for me to check homework! Our son recently wrote an article on why he believes in standing for the National Anthem , and I read it easily, without straining my eyes! . The kids say the erasers work well, and they like the bright colors of the barrels. My son says it is easier to write with than a regular pencil because of the shape.

Smooth writing mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are not like the old mechanical pencils we all know. These new BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are super comfortable to hold and write very smoothly. My biggest complaints about a standard mechanical pencil is the lead can squeak as you are writing and it breaks really easily. The lead in these pencils glide across the paper. Everyone in my family has staked their claim to a pencil and uses them all the time! The design looks like a ball point pen and there is a lot of support for the lead and I haven't had it break as easily as the other designs. Can it break, well sure, it is a thin piece of lead, but the pencil design is awesome! I like that there is a cap over the eraser keeping it nice and inline with the pen design. The extra erasers and lead it comes with is an added bonus. This is by far my favorite mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids can't put these pencils down! They love how easy they are to use and how smooth it is to write with especially how easy it is to erase. They brought a bunch of them with them to school and so many of their friends ask them about that and I have already had a few phone calls from friends asking me all about these pencils!!

Pencil heaven

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really picky when it comes to writing utensils. I could spend hours (yes, hours) trying to pick out pens/pencils that I like. I prefer clean, crisp lines but still fluidity when writing. These pencils BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are now my favorite. The lead is strong and doesn't break easily. They write smoothly but with crispness and no smudging. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is b/c I prefer a mechanical pencil with the advance button on my grip rather than the top. Check these out for back to school. They're sure to last the school year.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since we are all in back to school mode, I hosted an after school homework session for my daughter and her friends. I had them use different brands of mechanical pencils to compare and they all decided the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils were the best! Unfortunately for my daughter, they all wanted to keep their sample so now she doesn't have has many!
