Forget the kids, these pencils are for all pencil people!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these would also strongly appeal to adults because they truly write so well. Strong lead, great erasers (and refills included of each). My daughter and son (middle and high school) will be getting these for school this year. My husband also tutors math and is taking his to work. Feels much better in my hand than the wood pencils and also the cheaper store brand mechanical pencils I typically buy. I don't love pencils like my daughter and husband but did decide when I use a pencil it would be this brand I will use.

Great Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were really excited to check these out and use them for the upcoming school year. They work really well and are good quality. My boys love mechanical pencils and these are top notch ones and they write very smoothly instead of the lead constantly breaking. Anything that makes my kids excited to do school work is great by me!

good quality mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an all around good pencil. It is very comfortable to write with, especially with the built in pencil grip. These pencils write very smoothly, but not a huge fan of the small eraser and the quality of which it erases with. After erasing, you can still see some of the mistakes you made. The downside of mechanical pencils is that you need to use the side of the erasers or the lead is pushed out the other end. My son did like that there is a cap on the eraser-it helps to keep the eraser in its spot therefore keeping the extra lead from falling out!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were happy about their pencils. When they got their backpacks all ready for school, they placed each in a little pocket all proud. They're even acting more mature with them.

The Fanciest Schmanciest Mechanical Pencils EVER!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really didn't expect to be able to impress my kids with mechanical pencils. They are after all boys who love to play Minecraft and with intricate LEGO sets. But they really were intrigued when I showed them the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils! And it wasn't just the bright colors or the sleek design. They were super impressed that the erasers had a lid! What?!? And how easy it was to click the lead out. Then they were even MORE impressed and blown away that the packet included extra lead refills AND erasers!! WHOA!! Talk about the fanciest, schmanciest mechanical pencils they've ever seen. And they totally made it easier for them to finish their homework. The only negative they had was they didn't like the pink or purple pencil, but that was perfect because that meant they were MINE!

Better thankYour average mechanical pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really liked these pencils. I've tried others where the lead broke or pushed back in the pencil. For the price point this is a great pencil . Loved the thickness of the lead. Never has the lead slide out too much and it worked really well. U really like the eraser cap and the extra erasers and lead they give you

Nice pencils and no worry

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils does what it suppose to do and as a bonus they give you extra leads when you run out. I like it because my kids can use them without worrying about the lead breaking and it give me the satisfaction of getting the best bang for the buck (even though I got this for free, but I will be buying them again once I run out!).

Smooth writing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children are enjoying the pencils. My oldest child commented on the fact that it is a smooth writing pencil. What I like about the pencils, they are sleek and have a secure grip. The refills are easily able to find. I am enjoying these pencils just as much as the children are. Thank you BzzAgent and BIC for giving us the opportunity to try them first.
