[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves this pencils. Typically she breaks the lead because she writes so hard. But this pencil survives her. She enjoyed being able to draw and write stories and notes to her friends and family.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are great! They are durable, come in fun colors, and most importantly my middle schooler was so excited to use them this year. The extra leads and erasers are such a nice touch. Thank you Bic for knowing what we'd need!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best mechanical pencils out there! BICVelocity has strong #2 lead to write with and erasers that don't smear. Coming with the extra lead and erasers are a great bonus! They come in bright colors and are easy to write with.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think that Bic has came up with the greatest pencils for kids ever!! My kids love to write now and they love the colors and how easy it is to erase a mistake without a sloppy mess. My kids no longer complain that their fingers hurt thanks to the awesome grip. Getting them free was awesome. I am a very pleased mother now that I don't have to argue to get homework writing assignments done. I suggest buying these great pencils instead of anything else. Highly reccomend ASAP!!

Colorful BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are a home school family so we use a lot of pencils in our home. I also am a writer so I am always writing down ideas and sketching. The #BICVelocity mechanical pencils are gorgeous with colorful barrels and the rubber hand grip makes writing more comfortable on the fingers. No sharpening needed!!! This alone makes these pencils a favorite among the children and adults in our home. The lead is #2 which is essential and easily erases. This is a great product for the whole family.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are awesome! Always sharp and write dark. I'll never go back to a regular pencil again! I use pencils at work and the regular ones never seem sharp or write dark enoghh. I'm getting my boss hooked now too. My son uses them at school and loves them too!

Smooth Writing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received #BICVelocity to sample and review. I let my students use these pencils while they wok in my classroom. They love the different colors that are available. I appreciate the fact that time isn't wasted when someone's pencil tip breaks. They just have to click the eraser to receive more lead. I personally like how smooth the eraser is. The pack also came with extra lead AND extra erasers, that's was a huge bonus. Erasers are usually the first thing to go, and I've had students throw out their pencils before just because their eraser is gone. I am glad my students were able to try these out. These pencils would make great school supplies because I know most kids would rather use mechanical pencils anyway.

A nearly perfect pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these new pencils from BIC. They are very bright so I can find them in my junk drawer, though I would love to see a bright green one since I am not a pink fan. I love, love LOVE that the metal portion of the tip retracts completely into the unit so I don't stab myself when searching my purse for a writing implement. I love the chunkiness of the grip and how dark and smooth it writes. I also really love that it comes with not only extra leads but extra erasers. I have thrown out numerous other brands of mechanical pencils because they had refillable leads but a fixed eraser and once that was worn down you either couldn't erase or had to carry around a separate eraser. The only think that could possible make these better is that I found the little indentation for your grip to be slightly too far up the pencil for my preference. I found my fingers settling a bit below this in the hollow at the far end by the tip which was still comfortable but didn't give quite as much control in my writing. This is a minor issue however and I would not give these up because of it.
