just not the color I was hoping for…
…otherwise they are great I didn’t expect the colors to as muted as they are.

Always loved Flair
For awhile Flair markers were difficult. Since Teenager have loved them. To find them in a multitude of colors was like an unexpected but delightful gift! Sharpies are nice don't get me wrong but there is just so much fun in using a Flair. Love the feel the point and now all the wonderful colors!

Fun but different
Given that I"m a baby-boomer I have fond memories of the original Flair pens. These are definitely not like the originals. They will do for fun projects and doodling but I miss the feel of the originals.

Not all work
When I opened the pack I was excited to see how each color looks on paper. When I got to the light blue it didn’t work- like it was dried out already. Other than that the rest of the colors work fine and they’re pretty on paper!

Too expensive for the quality
I like the way they write but some of them dried out much too fast for the cost.

Flair Pens are the best
I use them for quick simple project flow charts and for quick brain-storming. They simply work better than pens or pencils.

Beautiful but Short Life
5 stars in the beginning --- I love the way these pens write. It gives me the opportunity to grade papers in a variety of colors. 3 stars after use ---Unfortunately the ink runs out in a short amount of time - 4-5 weeks of regular use.

Reliable old friend
Trusted and reliable office supply. Negative is that it rubs off of some materials like glossy tape. Not a “completely” permanent marker but I think it’s not advertised that way either.
