BIC PrevaGuard Clic Stic Ballpoint Pen Contains Built-in Protection On the Pen To Suppress Bacteria Growth, 12-Count

I liked the ease and dependability of pen. Just click and use. Lightweight.

I bought this for my family as it’s antibacterial and we need this protection right now!

The ink doesn't come out consistently and smoothly. Light, feel cheaply made.

click to open. click to close. Very smooth writing free of skips and blobs. The color is the usual shade of blue that we are all used to. The pen feels very lightweight and is comfortable to hold and use. The pen is retractable with a pocket clip and they have come up with a way to now make this antibacterial. What else can you do to a pen??? I love Bic pens... I want this in pink ink! The barrel is a solid color blue so you can not see how much ink is left in the pen. I guess when it stops writing, you will know there is none left.

I received these pens specifically to write a review. That said, I try to be honest and open in all my reviews.(Please see the enclosed picture.)Practical and easy to use, this pack of pens is a good thing to keep in stock. The pens themselves are decent quality. They are thin enough to hold easily.The clicker works well and once out, the nib stays firmly in place.The ink flows smoothly and there are no blotches or stains. It is an easy-to-read blue color.They’re such a simple, basic thing, but these pens are well-designed and reliable, useful tools!

Not the bic pen your use to. It’s thinner, less ink, lighter ink, and lower quality bic ink if you can get it to work. They either leaked, skips, dried out very disappointed will not buy again. Not worth the gas and effort to return.

- Made in Mexico- See my pic for a size comparisonOk this surprised me. A pen with antibacterial in the ink? I'd have never thunk of it. I'm not sure ink is in the top 200 list of things that spread germs, but hey, every little bit could help. That is, if it's not an attempt to profit on current hysteria.I'm willing to grant that any new product released will be a little more expensive at first but will eventually drop in price. I'm willing to see a higher price because a product is just that more useful and/or provides a bit more service than existing ones. I'm not willing to see a higher price when it's an attempt to prey on a tragic event in recent history.You'll have to decide, though, how you see it. The link here is for a pen exactly equivalent to this one just without the "prevaguard". $6.48 is lower than the price here, but there are 24 pens in the set on this link. That's quite a difference. https://smile.amazon.com/BIC-Retractable-Medium-Point-24-Count/dp/B00H2H3C2WTo be clear, bacteria has nothing to do with covid, which is a virus. Still, bacteria is just as icky as a virus, so it's not a bad thing to avoid them either.This pen here writes smoothly. It's the same middle-ish quality as many other brands out there. I find the barrel to be a bit slicker than usual but it's not terrible.I'm unhappy with such a large disparity in the price, but I'm willing to trust the BIC name that they aren't trying to take advantage of our current situation.Don't forget to use the Smile.Amazon.com address - It's an Amazon program where many everyday things you buy will generate a small donation from Amazon to the charity of your choice.

We got these pens because who can't use more pens and Bic is a decent brand. This is great for a pack of Bic pens at a good price. These write well, are comfortable to hold and use and work well. The thing that's intriguing about these pens is that they have an antibacterial product incorporated into the pen to help prevent bacteria growth. Though I'm not sure about how well the antibacterial product works, it's always a plus to see new products coming out with more awareness given to preventing the spread of germs nowadays. Also even if the ability to prevent bacteria in these Bic pens isn't proven or valid, they're still a good quality pen.
