No breaking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Huge homework helper!!!! My son has struggled with handwriting since he started school. We always use mechanical pencils for the convenience. He seems to push down really hard when writing, and with other mechanical pencils, I would find the lead would break every few words, really messing with his productivity and slowing his progress in his work. We would go through them very quick as well. What a difference these new BIC Velocity pencils make! We just got through and entire 1 hour homework session without the lead breaking on him once. He was so impressed by not only that, but how smooth they write. He said it felt like writing with a smooth pen. The eraser does a great job of removing any traces of what was previously written, and the cap on top of it makes him feel like it's extra special. We can't wait to continue using these throughout the year. 5 stars!!!!!

Comfortable pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love school supplies and testing out new pens and pencils. I tend to write only with pencil for a lot of things because then you can erase. A good eraser is important too, and these seem to take care of the job. I also like a pencil with big thick led. These have a great led that doesn't seem to snap each time you start writing like some mechanical pencils do. I like that these have a comfortable grip too.

Fabulous Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love school supplies. I love to stock up on back to school sales. Nothing like new crayons and pencils. I have 5 kids and we go through TONS of pencils. I prefer Mechanical Pencils, but we go through them like crazy. I was thrilled to get these BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils. My daughter, a middle schooler, was especially excited. She loves supplies as much as I do. We tried them out and loved the quality. Plus they come with extra lead and erasers! We love the quality of these pencils and the smooth writing that comes from them. I went to the store and stocked up on these pencils for the entire school year. Love them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are great.... My friends that I gave the pencils to also love them! The lead doesn't seem to break as easily as some mechanical pencils are prone too. Would definitely continue to recommend these pencils to friends.

Kids love these mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These mechanical pencils are great. I'm not usually a fan of mechanical pencils because they fall apart easily and the lead constantly breaks. These are sturdy and have a strong lead. I like the fact that there is a refill included that keeps extra leaf and erasers together.

Best mechanical pencils out there!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are high quality. The lead seems to be very sturdy, and has not broken on us. That is a major bonus because I really didn't like wasting the product, even if it was just little pieces. The lead writes really smooth, and does not smear. It is even when writing, not too dark or too light. It is comfortable to hold, and doesn't feel cheap and flimsy like some pencils are. I also like you can refill with new lead and re-use the pencil part to help the environment and save trees. These are so durable that they should last for years. They will get a lot of use from my school aged child and other members of my family. I would definitely recommend these pencils.

Love the extra erasers!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use a mechanical pencil every day at work. Bic Velocity has become my new favorite. My 11 year old stepson agrees. He said they write nice. He loved the colors and I loved the extra erasers! They write smooth, not too bold or too light, erase nicely, feel sturdy in your hand, and come in a variety of colors.
