[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the BIC velocity mechanical pencils. It is a great day in the classroom when students enjoy doing their work because they have new, colorful mechanical pencils. No more lead breaking every few letters. BIC uses strong lead that writes easy. The package even includes an extra pack of lead and erasers. yes, I said erasers. I love that BIC has added extra erasers. Students are always losing their erasers or making them so small that you cannot refill the lead. Not anymore!!!! Mechanical Pencils made easy, writing made FUN. #TryITfree #BICvelocity #bzzagent

Fun with writing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before receiving this product I went and check out the product reviews online. I want to see what the features were and what made it any different from other mechanical pencils? Once I received the pencils and had the children try then to our surprise the lead did not break as easily as some pencils. The writing was smooth and dark. The eraser was even better the other mechanical pencils and not turn black or tearing up. This pencil also has a comfortable sort grip which is not hard on your fingers.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil Review
on September 18, 2016
Posted by: Wendi
from Davis, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really, really like these pencils. My son and I have used them quite a bit since receiving them from BzzAgent. I like how dark they are. I also like that the leads are strong and don't keep breaking like some other leads do. The erasers are nice too. I have given a couple of them to my 5th grade students who have special needs and perseverate on sharpening pencils and they have also been enjoying them. The pencils are comfortable to grip and the colors are great. I'm not a huge fan of the eraser cap simply because it has to be removed to use the eraser - but the workaround there is simple - just leave it off! Although, admittedly, it does keep the eraser nice and clean. I don't really know what the better alternative would be other than maybe an eraser that goes down into the pencil and can come up when needed.

Love BIC Velocity pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love BIC Velocity mechanical pencils! They write really smooth, almost like a great pen. Fortunately, with all the homework my kids do, you can erase these pencil marks quickly and completely. I love the fun colors they come in, but even better- the lead doesn't break easily like other pencils, that is what I love most about these pencils!

Still a big hit for school as a go to mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has been over a month and the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil is still the choice my children use at school and at home. The mechanical pencils have lasted this long and have not had to buy replacements. The lead still writes smoothly after a long period of use. The lead is strong and does not easily break I have not had to replace the lead as often with pervious brands. The easers do not smudge when erasing maintaining the paper clean and presentable. I still use it for school work as well and I even added it to use at work. The mechanical pencil is still a hit with the family!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We can write all day with these snazzy pencils. So many mechanical pencil lead breaks with slight pressure, this hold strong! They erase well too! They fit well in student hands, I didn't notice a ton of writing fatigue. #gotitfree

He loves them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have to say the older my son is getting the more he wants cooler school supplies. He does not like regular pencils as much since he has to sharpen them that is why these mechanical pencils were great. Also the grip is very comfortable, and now that he is in middle school he does a lot more writing and this mechanical pencil is great for lots of writing. He loves them!
