[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bic Revolution Ocean Retractable pens are great. The write so smooth and clear. They did not smudge at all either. I also like they are made from recycling bottles. I will continue to buy this product.

Eco-friendly pens

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are unique because they are made of 73% recycled plastic. I appreciate the reuse of the plastic, especially because there is no noticeable difference. As far as the construction of the pen, there are some well-thought out details. For instance, you click the top to reveal the ballpoint and then there’s a separate little button to retract the ballpoint. There’s also a little “ledge” on the bottom of the pen for your finger to comfortably rest on. Writing with this pen was smooth, with no skipping. I didn’t feel like I had to exert effort/apply pressure to write either. Where I did find this pen lacking is in saturation. The output of the pen was a bit on the light colored and faint side. This was not due to how hard I pressed. It simply seems to be the color of the ink, the diameter of the ballpoint and the type of ink used. I would use this pen for jotting down things, etc but not for anything that required vivid strong writing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of people have things they like to collect, and for my its pens. I work at a front desk and I love writing with a great pen. I decided to try out these BIC retractable pens and see of they met my standards. They aren't quite what I like in a pen but they do the job. I love a smooth writing pen that does not skip any when I'm writing and I didnt find that with this pen. Also it says it's a black writing pen and it is not, it writes blue for sure. I did like the little button on the side that retracts them though. Overall if you just want a pen around the house to jot down a grocery list, this pen should be great for you. If you're obsessed with pens like I am and looking for the best writing pens then this probably isn't the pen for you.

Great pen of recycled materials

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC, what can you say. They always have great pens. This ReVolution Ocean pen is no exception. It writes great, the feel in your hand is great, and it opens and closes easily. The fact that they made it with recycled plastic was a bonus. Aren’t we all recycling today? Using recycled plastic to make the pen makes me want to use it more than the average pen . I even noticed that the box is also made of recycled content. It’s great to see a company recycling materials on hand to make their products. I love the pen.

Smooth roller ball

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The plastic casing for this pen is a little thicker than I like. It feels big and clunky in my hand. Also the button to retract the pen is in a weird location and doesn't feel intuitive to my hand. Recycling is cool but maybe they could use less plastic overall and make it a thinner pen.

Great for work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these pens every day at my job, out in the blistering cold and they still do their job phenomenally. You can tell a quality pen by how it writes. No one likes those pens that have trouble producing ink, ones with which you must scribble half a dozen lines on your paperwork before it decides to function. These are great. The flow is even and ample, and their ergonomic shape is much preferred to a standard, 500 pack for .99cents, pen. I would choose these any day of the week. Choose less frustration.

Bic revolution

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I had kids and needed to buy school supplies I found Bic was the best product out. The Revolution pen is another great product. No blobbing of ink anywhere. The pen starts immediately so you do not need to scratch some paper to start writing. The ink does not bleed either if rubbed. Fantastic product.
