Smooth and no rub off!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a left handed person, mechanical pencils are my worst nightmare! They get the back of my hand COVERED in graphite! (Gross!) So you can believe how amazed I was when I started writing and there was no graphite on the back of my hand! I was astonished at how smooth the lead was, gliding across the page better than my best pen! It makes me want to better my handwriting and write everywhere! Now I solely use these pencils both at work and at school!

B2S2016 Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying many different mechanical pencils, I never could find one that was perfect. The twist-up erasers always twist back down as you erase, the led breaks incredibly easy, and they just didn't look appealing enough for a teenager to want to use them for schoolwork. Until... I tried the BIC Velocity mechanical pencils. My daughter was immediately drawn to the bright colors. No more erasers twisting back down into the barrel as you erase, and led that lasts. We also liked the comfortable, smooth, and brightly colored grip. Anything that is appealing to a teenager, cost-effective, and quality I am for! No more buying pencils and trying out new brands every other week!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter lovess mechanical pencils. So, I was excited to know I was getting these. They are bright in cool colors and fun. Great for sharing with friends or simply looking like the cool kid. They write very very smooth and consistent in color. The eraser is really good and clears up everything. What more could you ask for. I highly recommend these over regular pencils and even mechanical ones. This is a must have for back to school supplies. Even have refill tube for convenience. #bicvelocity #gotitfree

Not revolutionary, but effective

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils were overall a good experience to use. I loved that they were mechanical, because I never use wooden pencils anymore (they're inconvenient and bad for the environment). To me, the pencils were relatively comfortable to hold; the grip was soft without being obnoxious. The eraser is pretty standard, and didn't run out as quickly as I expected. Personally I'm not a fan of the plastic cover over the eraser but it can easily be taken off so it wasn't an issue for me. I would probably buy these pencils again just because they work well, although there wasn't anything too novel or revolutionary about them in my opinion.

My son and his friends love them!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son has aspereger's and struggles with hand writing due to fine motor issues. Sometimes writing utensils are too skinny for him and he complains how it hurts to write- he grips too hard attempting to write decent. These, however fit his hand ok. If any smaller, probably wouldn't have worked, but glad they did! It is nice how shaped to position his hand against the flat side to encourage proper form. He brought them to open house the night before the first day of school and shared with his friends : )

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are greta. The lead resists breaking and the erases work really well with minimum effort. The kids love the bright colors and I like their durability!
