Smooth Pens
My coworkers keep stealing my pens so I put these cheaper pens out for others to use. Now I’ve been able to try them when visiting my coworkers cubicles and I have to say, I’m impressed.

NONE WORKED
I tried 4 of the twelve ; none of them worked. I returned them and purchased BICs. It would appear that they forgot to actually put a ball in it. Should be ZERO STARS.

TRU RED™ Ballpoint Gripped Pen, Medium Point, 1.0m
This pen is made of cheap material. I have already wasted two pens but haven't fully used up the ink and the bottom of the pen breaks apart. The plastic material around it is so cheap. I wasted our company's money in buying this product. I need to request a refund.

Thumbs Up
I purchased these for my daughter's baby shower. For that, they were perfect. However I feel they were a little chintzy to use them everyday!

Very dry
Tip is very dry and ink is hard to get to the tip. They are terrible and can't be used! Never again will I buy from staples. Nothing I have gotten there are any good

Don't buy these
I bought these because other TRU RED products have been great and I liked how these looked. The shape and grip is comfortable to hold. They come with the little ball on the tip that needs to be removed prior to writing. However, these pens are terrible! The ink skips constantly... Can barely write a couple words without it failing (tried multiple pens). Do not buy.

Not Great
Not great ink, very uneven. Each pen tip has a little plastic ball that needs to be removed. It's difficult getting it off without pulling the entire ink tube out.

ink blob
I bought these because they said low viscosity ink on the package and it's cheap. As soon as I write I see ink blob. It is low viscosity ink which is nice but the ink blobs make it undesirable.

Tru Red Ballpoint pen
So far this pen has excelled. Easy to write with, no skipping or smearing. I love the Tru Red gel pens and am glad to be able to add this pen to my desk.

Pleasantly surprised
I got these because they were cheap and didn't expect much from them, but I was pleasantly surprised that the pens write smoothly, crisply and cleanly. Much better than I expected .

Blue balls
I need these for government purpose and since I go through lots of pens, the price was just right as well as the quantity. Everyday pens for everything written.
