[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pencils is a great addition to your back to school shopping list. I'm a college student and I have an elementary school son who always wants the most unique accessories one can find. Though he's unable to use mechanical pencils at school, he prefers them over ordinary pencils and uses them for homework. I use them for note taking and class assignments. Not only do they look really cool but worked great and are extremely comfortable to use. The pencils write very smoothly, the eraser adequately worked, which is a big thing for me since I'm a perfectionist when it comes to turnin in assignments. I prefer not to have smudge marks where I had tried to erase something, with these pencils that was not a problem in the slightest. Overall, both my son and I are very happy with the product and have given coupons to both friends and family while telling them about the product and how it's definitely a much higher quality then your average mechanical pencil.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love matching my school supplies and everything else to my fashion sense and these allow me to do that. I'm also really rough on my supplies so I was very impressed and how sturdy these are, and they are easy to use and consistently smooth writing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a pencil person. I love pencils over pens any day. But at work its hard to find pencils. I got these free from BIC to review. I jumped at the chance to have some new go to pencils at work! I think these pencils are great. They write very smoothly. I haven't had an issue with putting too much pressure and having the lead snap. The erasers on these pencils are pretty nice too. They don't seem to disintegrate into tiny specks like ones on cheaper mechanical pencils. I love the fact that it comes with extra eraser too!! Speaking of erasers, one thing I don't understand is the caps. The erasers have caps on them. ...Why? The whole cap thing is why I had to get these in the first place. I think they're supposed to prevent having the lead get pushed out accidentally while you have the pencils in your bag or a case or something. However, upon trying out these pencils for the first time, I immediately lost two of the caps. They're clear so they are very difficult to find if you misplace them. Be careful. These pencils seem to be pretty durable. I've had one of mine roll of my desk and get kicked across the classroom several times and stepped on once and it hasn't cracked or anything. These might actually be suitable for children and clumsy people like myself. The look is very nice and the colors are so pretty. It actually looks even brighter and more neon in person than in the photo. Overall, I definitely think these are awesome.They'll last you a long time and if you love pencils these are totally worth it!

Durable Pencil Loved by Kids

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids immediately were attracted to BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils. First because of the colorful barrels, second due to the fact that they are mechanical, third because of the replacement erasers. The pencils write smooth and dark, yet erase cleanly with the erasers provided. The pencils are easy to operate, replacing lead is super fast, and the replacement erasers are awesome! My children love using these pencils and are more motivated to write.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave these to my daughter for her school supplies, she's in a STEM program with emphasis on Engineering. These pencils are great because they don't contribute to hand cramps and muscle strain. She really likes them.
