My favorite
These are wonderful for me since I am on the go and I can retract it so it doesn't get destroyed.

works 30% of the time, on a good day!
This product only works if the paper is totally flat and the Sun is shining and the temperature is above 70 degrees. I've been using this type of correction pen for 25 years, and they still don't work. I had hoped that the manufacturers would have fixed the problem of the white correction tape guide path but no they have not.

Staples Correction Tape - don't do it!
Correction Tape didn't work correctly when rolled on error to cover it and the tape was old and peeling and did not cover correction. I guess I will just stick to the old fashioned way "Correction Fluid".

Flakey correction tape
Correction Tape didn't work correctly when rolled on error to cover it and the tape was old and flakey and did not cover correction. the tape crumbled when I rolled it on all the ones I purchased. I opened them all just to see if only one was old and flakey but they all did not work.

Nice idea that fails
One didn't work at all - didn't unwind
The other one the correction tape would not stick to the page.
Like the shape of the unit.

Awful
Doesn't work. Tape become loose at first use. The only way to fix it is to wind it back up (wasting tape), but you can only do that when it's retracted. Once you push the button, it gets loose again. Pay more for a better product.

staples Correction Tape
Package had 2 correction tapes.
Unfortunately both did not work that easily. Tape did not come out of dispenser easily.
One dropped on floor and came apart and could not be put back together, so in the garbage.
The other one I sill struggle to use, no matter what it doesn’t work well.

Inconsistent & falls apart
I don’t know if it’s the sharp bend in the tip but the white residue that should flow smoothly onto paper breaks up at the turn. It’s possible the tape was old and dry? I won’t get that variety again m.

Does not work well
The tape doesn't advance like it should which makes it cumbersome to use.

Really bad quality
Don’t waste your money, I couldn’t use it even once. The tape inside gets loose and there’s no way to put it back in.

started off grand, now it's useless
I was SO thrilled about the size, design and function of this correction pen initially. The receding feature (think: clicks into the pen's casing like a ballpoint pen) was perfect for my on-the-go note taking. Although, I was confused as to which direction to pull the pen initially, that needs to be a more clear indication or shown in details on the packaging. Meanwhile...
