I use almost every day.
Great to use and great to smell? I use the fine tip for everyday writing and I have been using the same sharpie for months now. Would recommend. Only downside is side is when it breaks, everything is stained.

Dependable
Easy to use and a bonus with the retractable marker. Always writes when you need it to with smooth lines. As a nurse this is a great marker to have handy especially when you don’t have to worry about the cap being on or off.

My new favorite sharpie
These are the best markers for kids that are doing school projects. Kids need good quality and bold makers but they are also irresponsible with lids and that takes care of both problems. They are worth every penny because they last the longest and always good product! Love the new retractable!

No losing tops with sharpie retractable markers.
I love Sharpie retractable markers. The marker writes smooth and easy. The color quality is amazing. I like the you can close the marker just by a retractable top. No losing tops here.

Seems to dry out quickly. We think we like the one with the caps better.

They work for our needs
They work for our needs at work. Retractable so you don't lose the cap and thick enough ink to be permanent and readable.

Easy to click
These easy click markers are great for writing on stickers! We use them everyday in the lab writing times on specimens. They last for a long time considering the design of the flap that keeps them “capped”. They do dry out but it takes lots of use!

Works great!
These fine tip permanent marker are great when labeling things that are on the smaller side. For a 36 count, this is a bang for your buck. I usually don't go through the whole box because my coworkers always manage to slip one in their pockets. It does smear though if you don't let it dry enough.

Dries up fast
I like these markers but i also feel like mine dry out very easily compared to the regular capped ones. Its handy for on the go but since its like an ink pen they don’t last as long.

Response from Staples :
Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Sharpie Retractable Permanent Markers.
We are glad to hear that you find them convenient for on-the-go use.
We understand your concern about the markers drying out more quickly than regular capped Sharpie markers. Retractable markers are designed for portability, but they may dry out faster if the tip is not fully retracted after use. To help maximize the lifespan of your markers, please ensure the tip is fully retracted and the marker is stored horizontally when not in use.
Your feedback is valuable and will be shared with our product team for review. We appreciate your support of Sharpie products and hope you continue to enjoy using them.
If you have anymore feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time.
Thank you!

Easy to Use
I have purchased these retractable Sharpie’s multiple times for the office. It being retractable makes it easy to use and you don’t have to worry about a cap. Though it doesn’t have a lid, you can’t even smell the marker.

The Best Permanent Markers
The gold standard in permanent markers. Sharpies are the best, they are dark and opaque, and you can get very precise or draw wide lines. Very versatile for everyday use. And, the price is very good for what you get.
