My favorite pencils! I found out about these when I saw my sister using them for school. I wanted to test out if they actually had unbreakable lead and it has yet to break while i've been using them. They are easy to hold, don't make my hands sore, and make my handwriting look very nice. I also like the fact that the lead shows up a bit softer rather than harsh and looking like pen. My absolute favorite go to pencils! I've already bought a second pack!

This refill pack is perfect to refill the lead and erasers in the break resistant pencils. My son has a heavy hand when writing and would always break the lead on the flimsy mechanical pencils. These work great for him so love the idea of being able to refill the lead and erasers instead of buying all new pencils.

I bought the BIC Break-Resistant Mechanical Pencils (0.7mm, 12-pack) for my daughter, who’s in middle school and constantly snapping leads in her old pencils. These have been a total lifesaver! The shock-absorption mechanism really works—she can press as hard as she wants while scribbling notes or sketching, and the lead holds up. The grip is comfy for her long study sessions, and the jumbo eraser is a hit—she says it wipes out mistakes cleanly without smudging her paper. Plus, the pack includes extra leads and erasers, so we’re set for a while.My daughter’s been using them for everything from math homework to doodling in her journal, and she hasn’t complained once about jamming or breakage. They’re lightweight but don’t feel cheap, and she loves that they’re refillable. Honestly, these pencils have made her schoolwork less frustrating, and that’s a win for both of us! I’d recommend them to any parent looking for reliable pencils their kids will actually enjoy using.

I like these mechanical pencils with the grips for drawing. Especially on the go and I want a few in my backpack, at home, and at the office. Plus having the .5 thickness is a nice touch. It is a cheap but effective product.

These are rather good, I have been using them consistently.They are not as good as the Y&C brand pencils that have a similar set of features: twist-up extra long erase, side-advance lead, and a retracting nib that won't puncture your pocket. Those features together are quite rare.It's also sad that these are only available in 0.7mm, as I prefer 0.5mm and already own a lot of 0.5mm leads, including different hardness leads.These possibly look a bit childish because of the colors, but I don't mind.They work surprisingly well, I associate Bic with terrible ballpoint pens, but these are actually good quality.These are my favorite pencils that are currently on the market with twist-up erasers. For discontinued pencils, my favorite is the Y&C. And for mechanical pencils overall, my favorite is the Pentel with regular eraser. Because of the twist-up eraser, this is now my primary daily pencil.

These BIC mechanical pencils are fantastic for everyday use! The lead genuinely seems more break-resistant, which saves a lot of frustration, especially during homework or quick notes. The built-in erasers work well, and the comfortable grip makes them easy to use for extended periods. Great value pack, perfect for students or anyone who uses pencils often!

My kids keep asking for these mechanical pencils. For some reason these are the ones of choice. They like the way they write and erase and comfortable in their hands.
