Greatest pens ever!
These pens are great and the 0.5 mm tip is perfect. No smearing. I will buy nothing else going forward.

Poor Function/Inferior Product
I've bought a box of these pens twice, 6 months apart. Usually soon after using they start writing intermittingly like they are running out of ink. I end up throwing them away. Their return policy says 30 days. Not realistic since I always buy a box of pens ahead of time. Also for such a low cost item its not worth my time. But now I've had to throw away 2 boxes ...

Scratchy writing, not smooth, fast drying
Received this pen as a free sample to give my unbiased opinion. I received the blue one, it has a nice bright colored ink. Dries fast after writing. The barrel of the pen could be more comfortable. When writing it felt like it was scratching the paper, not a smooth writing pen at all.

they don't work
the price was drastically cut, but every pen i've tried so far, doesn't write at all, or does write, but then stops.
"quick dry" or all dried up?
returning the lot, soon.

Great gel pen
Crisp vibrant colors. I couldn't be happier. The 0.7mm tip is perfect. I will follow this brand.

My new favorite
These gel pens write beautifully without smearing. Great for grading, labeling, journaling, and calendaring. They’re on level with Papermate Inkjoy pens.

Great Colored Pens
This set has seven colors, five have duplicates, so it is very versatile. The writing is smooth, and the ink dries fast.

I thought they would have a little heavier ink. I bought them on sale so I can use them for other things.

I love gel pens and these are nice to hold in my hand and write with. I love the colors, but I thought I'd be getting all different colors whereas I got 2 black and then all the rest were different.
Yes I would recommend it.

Stopped working immediately
Waste of money. I should have spent a few bucks more for a name brand.

Good. . .and Disappointing
Overall, the pens have suited their purpose, but the one I needed the most, the aqua shade, was completely unfunctional, and a couple of the others need ‘priming’ or firm pressing to activate a smooth flow of ink when I first begin to use them. I will try another assortment next time.
