bit-tech Shopping: BIC XXL Professional Retractable Ballpoint Pen, Medium, Silver Barrel/Black Ink

Rating: 10

Time with product: 6 Months

Strengths: wide barrel, light weight, comfortable fit

Weaknesses: difficult to find refills in local stationary chains

Summary: If you do a lot of writing, this is a great pen. It is very light weight and the sponge tip is extemely comfortable. It also has a smooth glide. I hate it when it is a struggle to drag the pen across the page. I never take the time to write too many reviews, but I thought this one was worth it. Maybe they will carry it in more stores if more people know about it.
