Good writing experience for perfectionists

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot stand a dull pencil lead. It drives me crazy and I have to have a sharpener on hand at all times if I try to use regular pencils. This was the first year all of my children could substitute mechanical pencils for traditional pencils so it was the perfect time to try BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils. It has been a week of school so far and no pencil sharpening at all! I am a lead breaker, putting too much pressure on most mechanicals for them to write smoothly. So far I have only broken one BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencil lead and that was when I knew I was pressing down too hard. All of my children have commented how nice it is not to have to stop what they are doing so often to sharpen a pencil.

BIC Velocity pencils are the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is very picky about her pencils. Who ever would have thought having the fancy pencils was like having the designer jeans? The BIC Velocity mechanical pencils passed the coolness" test and were a big hit! Thanks for making a great product that kids love!"

Who's Bic'n it now?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this product is awesome! Forget about the kids, I use this pencil non-stop. I left one in my car in case of emergency, I keep one on my calendar, and I stash one in my purse for safe writing. The fabulous colors this mechanical pencil comes in help me distinguish it from other pencils. And it helps keep me organized. For instance, I have a special color for each area I keep them. Not only that these mechanical pencils are pretty light weight. That makes it easy to store them with my calendar or even in my purse. Additionally, they write well and the lead does not break. I have had my Bic Velocity pencils for over a month and not a single lead has broken on me. For real! And I tend to press hard too. I like the eraser compartment, but don't fancy the lid for it, because I tend to lose them. Other than that this is my #1 Mechanical Pencil.

Love these pencils!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE mechanical pencils! I don't love cheap ones and I am very picky when I spend a lot of money on mechanical pencils. When my package of BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils my kids were dying to use them....I wanted to keep them all for myself but knew that wasn't going to happen. First off, I loved how many pencils come in a package AND that I got some lead and eraser refills. I love these pencils and I don't want to throw them away when they are in great working order. Second, I love how good of quality they are. They are sturdy pencils, not like the ones that we've been used to buying in our household. Third, the lead doesn't seem to break as much. My kids are hard on mechanical pencils. It seems like the lead is constantly breaking when they use them but with the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils the lead doesn't seem to break near much. I would most definitely buy these pencils in the future and I would most definitely recommend them to my family and friends.

good pencil

from Beaver Falls, PA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I noticed right away that the BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencil is comfortable to write with. The grips make it easy to hold and allow for lots of writing before your hand starts to cramp. It feels more like you are writing with a pen than a pencil. My 7th grader is very happy with her new pencils and has requested more.

Perfect for math homework

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC Velocity mechanical pencils are great for homework. They write smooth and dark. The eraser erases cleanly leaving no residue behind. The bright colors are fun too ! It doesn't make math easier but it is a great pencil:)
