Smooth but needs improvement

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These BIC Velocity mechanical are pretty cool. They look like a pen. The colors they come in are appealing. They write super smoothly and even come with an extra set of lead and erasers. The price is good. They are about $4 a package. The lead is #2, so kids can use these for testing. BUT....there is one huge problem with these pencils. When you erase, the lead keeps pumping up with each stroke of the eraser. So every time you erase something, you'll have to push your lead back into the pencil. This is a deal breaker for me. I think these pencils are pretty cool, but I don't like the way they erase. If BIC fixes this issue, they will be the perfect mechanical pencil. I received these pencils from BIC for an honest review.

BIC Velocity pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are great! Smooth writing and a great grip for comfort! I took mine to work and gave the other pack to my dad to try. He likes them too but could do without the colors, which I love!! Oh well, to each their own on that. I highly recommend these for kids and adults alike!! The one small downfall is the eraser smudge was a little more than I would like. Overall, great great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this product is well designed, it has great grip, writes very smoothly and is excellent for drawing. The soft lead is good for shading, crossed hatching technique. My daughter loves her Bic Velocity Mechanical pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From a picky pencil writing family, these definitely made the grade. My kids both reached for these cool pencils when replenishing their school supplies. Great job making a functional pencil that kids enjoy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils. They are great for school and my kids love using them but I love them too. I live by my agenda with work and home obligations. This pencil is now what I use to keep my life in order with my agenda. This pencil writes smooth and the eraser doesn't leave smudges on the page. I love this pencil and wouldn't use any other brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before a meeting co-workers were talking about a new pen. I shared about the BIC Velocity mechanical pencil. It writes extremely smoothly (writing looks like a pen), it is erasable (very convenient), and the thick lead doesn't break.

Bic is the Best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a student and I have 3 school aged children so I was thrilled to recieve this product for free in exchange for a review. The packaging itself was pleasant to look at and as you can see the pencils come with replacement lead and erasers. The lead size is a 0.7 which is a common size and easy to find in most stores. The pencils are very durable and have a comfort grip towards the top. I found that to be one of the most useful features of this pencil as I have long lecture classes where I take tons of notes. The eraser on the pencil does not smudge and completely erases mistakes and when you are done using the eraser it has a clear cap to cover it with. The pencil itself writes smoothly and is easy to read because it is dark and when you run out of lead it is easy to replace by unscrewing the top of the pencil right above the comfort grip. I love my Bic Velocity pencils and it is a product I highly recommend
