[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Less breakage, lead refills and good smooth erasers. Good solid medium point, Pretty colors that don't get lost in the book bag. And the best part - NO Sharpening!!! BIC is America?s #1 mechanical pencil brand!* BICÆ VelocityÆ offers the smoothest and darkest writing experience versus other BIC mechanical pencils The pencils are made with strong leads that erase cleanly There?s a soft grip for comfortable writing and a retractable tip They?re perfect for standardized tests

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The comfortability of writing with these pencils is great. I'm not one who likes to write a lot and it always seems to make my fingers hurt. These are extremely smooth and makes the process so much easier and painless.

Love them!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Both of my children are very artistic. They love to draw on paper, in sketch pads, and on canvas. These pencils are strong and durable, plus erase cleanly so there is not a ton of wasted paper. Refillable so therefore reusable. They were very excited to receive them and try them out. Excited for the coming school year!

Nice Mechanical Pencil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a mechanical pencil these write nice and smooth and erase as cleanly as regular No. 2 pencils. The pencil itself comes in many nice colors and is super lightweight and comfortable to hold. Kids especially loved the different colors. I love that the pack comes with extra lead and extra erasers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually stick to the packs of BIC pencils that have 24 cheap pencils in them, but I am so glad I bought these! I was actually a little apprehensive when I first ordered them - I only bought them because a friend loaned me his and I lost the pencil cap and I felt soooo bad I just had to replace his. But, they have become my favorite lead based writing utensil! Anyway, personally 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. My friend who actually has this issue with a lot of pencils doesn't have it with these either. The erasers on these pencils are pretty nice too. They don't seem to disintegrate into tiny specks like ones on cheaper mechanical pencils. They also don't make that horrible 'noise' that the pink erasers do either, which is great. One thing I do dislike about these though is that they get used up pretty quickly. I've been mainly only using the pink pencil and eraser is about halfway gone already and it's only been about 3 weeks since I got these. It's a little disappointing, but the pack does come with extra erasers. I'd definitely recommend getting a separate eraser though, like one of the the big rectangle ones. 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 design of these is just great too in my opinion. The look is very sleek and the colors are so attractive. My favorites are the pink and orange. I honestly don't see too many orange mechanical pencils. The yellow is great too. It actually looks even brighter and more neon in person than in the photo. The blue one is just blue - there's nothing much to say about it. They all look pretty nice. I may even go so far as to say they look /sharp/. Because they're pencils. Do you get my joke? Overall, I definitely think these are worth the price. They'll last you a long time and save you money in the long run if you are like me and used to keep buying the huge packs cheaper pencils every few months

Stylish must-have

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were drawn to BIC Velocity pencils due to the style and colors. Once they stared writing they stated the writing style made their writing appear so beautiful. They are also comfortable on the hands. I was left with only one after my kids took them all. Absolutely getting more packs to stock up for the rest of the school year. Right in time for back to school.

Smooth Writing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoy these pencils. The fact that you get extra lead and erasers is also great. The kids love them and we can't believe how smoothly they write. I have told friends about #BzzAgent and how I #GotItFree for testing them. I have given out coupons and mist of the pencils.
