20 Best Hookah Pens To Buy (2023 Updated)

I took a gamble and ended up getting a Galaxy Z Fold 3 because essentially at the time of upgrade there was no new Note to purchase. It (s22 ultra) was 2 months away, but there was no guarantee if it would launch or what it would look like and I didn’t want a Google Pixel phone, iPhone, s21 or old Note 20 (It also didn’t help that I was intrigued by it since it launched last summer).

So essentially Samsung’s trick of trying to get Note users to be adopters of Fold, worked on me. The Fold has quite a few things to like: if you enjoy gaming and the game is optimised for use on the Fold, it can be an enjoyable, immersive experience.

It’s great for multitasking e. g. watching a video or reading and taking notes. It still has a wow factor as people aren’t used to seeing phones that can open up to a larger screen, plus it’s a stylish looking phone.

Notwithstanding, battery life is poor, which I’m kind of used to, as I own the standard Note 10, but with a phone that’s marketed as being for power users, I was hoping for slightly better performance (I have to have power saving mode on most days to get to the end without a charge).

Having owned the standard Note 10, I was hoping for a better camera selection, but I would say that images are only marginally better than what my old phone could do. The main killer for me is the size/weight, it’s heavy, really heavy, my wrists have started to hurt and I fear I’m getting repetitive strain injury from carrying the load.

It”s an awkward shape and not easy to put in pockets, plus the outside screen makes texting a challenge, even if swiping one handed, and when using the inside screen for texting, I find it too large to text comfortably unless using it like a laptop, (lay flat on the table).

Also right now I’m mainly at home, so I dread to think how comfortable it would be to use if I was actually out and about all day. If I was going to go out for the night I’d probably have to take a different phone as this would take too much space, and definitely wouldn’t fit in a small hand bag (The Flip would though).

If I was doing long train commutes for work, I think I would find this phone more handy than a standard candy bar phone, but I’m yet to test that use case. It didn’t come with the separate S pen, but I was able to claim it along with the case and 25w charger, which in my opinion should have come as standard anyway, based on how high the RRP is.

The S pen experience isn’t a match to what it is on a Note. It’s great that’s there’s more screen space to work with, but I actually find the pen a bit of an uncomfortable size, sometimes it feels too long and of course the main bug bear is that it’s not housed in the phone, and add in that it can’t be used on the front screen (there is a bit of a hack to write on the front screen, but you still can’t use the pen to do it) and it doesn’t include all the air actions.

Re the battery, it’s seems to take a longer while to charge than my old Note. Probably because it only has a 4300 mAh battery, which is rather small considering what it has to power, but having a bigger battery would also make the phone heavier, which I wouldn’t welcome.

In regards to customisation, the case selection for this phone is poor, there aren’t many options, it’s sister phone – z flip has way more, but probably because it is closer to the standard candy bar form factor.

I’ve tried a few cases and they either add additional bulk, or do not offer enough protection, i. e the hinge is exposed. Lots of people bad mouthed S pen case, and by no means is it perfect, but in the end I’ve found it more useful as it gives me something more to grip on to when the phone is open, especially if I have the pen holder on it still.

It could do with some magnets to keep the flap down, and it’s a bit annoying that there’s extra material when it’s open, but it’s not too bad. One of the other big drawbacks is having to constantly worry about the inner display and the responsibility of maintaining it.

The phone is water resistant, but not dust and it is rather prone to finger smudges, and lint build up around the screen protector on the inner display, which once again is disappointing. The crease sometimes gets in the way, but most of the time I don’t notice it.

It’s more noticeable on the Flip because it’s horizontal and you’re more likely to have to move your hand over it when tapping on the certain areas of the screen. One thing is that having the big screen can be a drawback, because it highlights how grainy certain images are or games that look fab on a normal phone, might not look as polished on the Fold because you can see more details and it’s clear that the image isnt a good as you thought (e.

g on PES the football players have less definition on the Fold). Re specs – it’s 5g, 120hz (which I rarely get to experience because it’s always in power saving mode), 888 Snapdragon, updated to Android 12, it’s 271g (which by now, you know I hate), and it should be water resistant for up to 30 mins.

I really really want to love this phone, but right now, the best I could say is that I like its potential and hate it’s ergonomics. I kind of somewhat feel like a tester, and that I’m not getting the full end user experience.

It’s like it’s in the UAT or pre production stage. It’s enjoyable testing new features, but not when I have to pay such a hefty cost to do so, and I just want it to enhance my life not make it more difficult.

I’m torn because I do like a lot of things about the phone, for instance I’m not sure I can go back to a small screen, but ultimately it would be cheaper and easier to have a good flagship phone, i. e.

S22 and a seperate tablet (as I don’t currently have one). I’ve only had it for a month, so I’m going to persevere and hope that the wrist pain settles instead of deteriorating, so that I can make the most out of what the phone has to offer and it’s concept.

Going forward if some of the gripes mentioned above are dealt with, I’d have a better user experience, hopefully by the time I’m due for a next upgrade, all my requirements will be met.

I purchased the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G 512 model in August 2021. I pre-ordered it the day after the launch as I have been doing every year since the days of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I have thoroughly loved every Samsung mobile model I have used and am looking forward much more creative useful innovation from Samsung.

The Samsung Galaxy Fold 3 has been the cream on the cake with its large and multifunctional display. The two features I would like to see in the future Folds or the likes are an embedded S pen like the Note series and a better selfie camera on the inner large display.

I have also purchased (via pre-order after the day of release in August 2022) the Samsung Galaxy Fold 4 and am discovering the new features and loving it so far. It is lighter in weight and a tiny bit smaller which makes it easier to carry.

I have purchased both the S Pen Fold and S Pen Pro editions and absolutely utilize them both to their potential. I hope to see the two above-mentioned features and much more that Samsung innovates in my future mobiles.

The first ever mobile that I owned when I moved to London, UK was the cute Samsung Blue Eye flip model way back in 2002. And have been using Samsung all the way up to now. I upgrade my mobile every year whenever Samsung releases a new model, especially in the Note and Fold series.

Totally loving it! Thank you, Samsung! Continue to be the innovation giant you are!.

It’s a compromised phone, without a doubt, as the front screen is too small. It’s awkward to open the phone as there’s no lip or anything to grab hold of. The battery is too small and it’s too heavy.

Also very expensive, but I bought mine second-hand so a lot less money. Although there are drawbacks, it’s a great phone. You soon get used to the rather small front display and it becomes a lot easier to manage.

Battery life can be maximised if you make sure all unnecessary background tasks are shut down. there are several sites that explain this so I won’t go into details, but make sure Chrome is not running in the background as this seems to use a lot of battery.

I’m not a heavy user so the battery is fine in everyday use. I expect heavy users may need to charge during the day, but the battery is adequate. Opening the phone to reveal the main display becomes easier as you use it.

Samsung could perhaps add a small tab on the side to aid opening. The phone is heavy, but because it is fairly compact this isn’t too much of an issue and it’s easy to fit in a pocket. The plus points are typical of most high end Android devices.

The displays are very good indeed, if not quite as good as something like the Samsung S21, but you’d be hard-pressed to notice the slight reduction in resolution. Certainly when watching Youtube or iPlayer the quality is noticeably better than the iPhone 12 pro max which I had previously.

I much prefer this phone as the iPhone has a rather odd screen ratio which you have to keep altering when watching videos. The phone works a lot better in my car than the iPhone, the calls are a lot louder and clearer than I was used to on the iPhone.

Apple restricts bluetooth connectivity so this phone, as with other Android phones, connects well. You can of course customise the phone much more easily than an iPhone due to the less restrictive software.

The main display is brilliant although again somewhat compromised. Some videos play more or less full screen whereas others don’t, but it brilliant to have the extra size and the resolution is just superb so videos are sharp and contrasty.

I have noticed the occasional lag compared to the iPhone which is very slick, but the latest Android release (12)seems to have improved this. This is a new phone of course so Samsung will smooth out any bugs I’m sure.

Overall I’m impressed with the phone and would look at buying another in the future if the price is right.

uni-ball rules the ballpoint (vs gel or rollerball) world with their JetStream pens, with a hybrid ink that has properties of traditional oil-based paste inks but the smooth writing and darkness of a gel or rollerball pen.

This torpedo shaped pen is reminiscent of some classic Japanese fountain pens, which is kind of fun considering that those fountain pens cost a hundred times more. The ball point is held firmly, so I prefer this pen to the click retractable versions.

Among the Uniball pens, the Jetstream RT pen uses an ink that is a good balance between the wetter 207 pens and the more ballpoint-like Jetstream. The 207 pens often take so long to dry, you can smear everything you’ve just written even though you are already on the second line.

OD used to carry the drier, more ballpoint-ink-like Jetstream model, but not any longer, so this is the closest in the Uniball line that they carry. Very precise pen tip and grip, so you can do fine hatching and line drawings without much issue.

Do keep in mind, these are not permanent ink pens, so you will get bleed if any water gets on the drawings, or a slightly damp palm brushes it.

When you need a little color fun at your everyday job these are perfect. They are all black+a little color so they are still ‘professional’ and ‘black’ but the color is still visible with the black. I did find a few of the colors to hesitate which surprised me as UNI ink is generally the smoothest and most bulletproof as ballpoints go but it is true nonetheless.

It would not stop me from buying these again for my favorites in this collection.

I have just tried 2 of the pens so dar. They’re very pretty colors & write fairly smooth. (I have hard time with any gel pens – they cut-out on me. ) They do have a nice scent – not sure I’d be able to tell what scent is, but not specific scents, as noted on box.

They are bright and work well against black paper or dark paper. Scented- Not really strong , but barely can smell it. They do run thru each color quickly. Pens stay in tact. They haven’t exploded. Recommend to anyone that loves pens.

These pens are great. My niece loves them! Definitely will be buying some more colours soon.

I bought this with some trepidation after my lukewarm experiences with my previous two Youth markers, a 0. 8 and a 1. 0. The 0. 8 runs too dry and hard starts too often to be pleasant to use. The 1. 0 dries quickly, but writes reasonably well when it’s used often.

I bought the Metis with a 1. 0 tip and I expected the bland performance of the similar Youth. This didn’t happen. The Metis has a perfect, consistent ink flow (with the same ink!) and writes well as soon as it’s uncapped.

I don’t know if the tip is actually different, if the feed is better engineered, or if it’s just variations in production runs, but the difference between the Metis and the Youth is very noticeable. The reason I bought the Metis, despite my low expectations for the writing experience, was the body, and it doesn’t disappoint.

It’s surprisingly heavy, which I enjoy. It makes the pen seem more substantial. It looks like a serious pen, not some plastic toy. It looks even better than in the photos. Between the excellent look, the heft, and the improved writing experience, I’m very happy that I upgraded from the mediocre Youth model.

By the way, the ink that I use is Lamy Black because it flows well (less “liquid” inks don’t work as well in markers as they do in fountain pens) and behaves very well on good paper and decently on cheap paper.

I’m sure there are many others that will work fine, but I can confirm that this one does.

After ogling over this pen for almost a year, my GF was sweet enough to purchase it for me for Christmas! When it arrived, it was definitely smaller than I had anticipated, but not a dealbreaker. However, the build quality is.

well let’s just say not great. The cheap plastic threads holding the Body to the Section aren’t molded very well, so it’s a bit hard to get the Body to screw onto the Section (I originally thought they were stripped until I took a closer look).

Also the included converter is VERY cheap feeling, and doesn’t have a smooth action at all. As with some other reviewers, i’ve also had issues with the tip. I’m using Mont-Blanc Permanent Black, and it dries out VERY quickly.

If I don’t use the pen for a number of hours, it takes about 10 minutes of sqiggling lines to get to flow properly again. But when it does. It’s beautiful. It’s smooth, the pen writes absolutely amazing, and it’s just the right amount of wetness.

It really is a good pen, and looks fantastic in my collection. I just wish it was $10 more so the converter and the plastic parts could just be that tiny bit better. :).

The cap, it seems, does not seal completely so that the tip is drying out all the time. Most of the time, when uncapping the pen, I must clean the dried ink crust off before writing. This could be because of the ink I am using (Monteverde California Teal) but I doubt it.

There is a second problem which stems from this. The first few inches of writing or drawing, after the cust has been removed, is much darker due to the concentration of drying ink already in the tip.

Once that super concentration of ink has been spent the regular ink flow is consistent; but it is also a bit stingy. These issues are real and they do have an effect on my enjoyment of the pen but the rest of the pen is so good that I just really don’t mind these issues much.

I use it at my desk, I don’t carry it around, so the cleaning issue easy to overcome. The build, fit, and finish of the pen is excellent. It is comfortable to use. It feels great. It is heavy. When the cap is posted it is possibly too heavy.

The cap doesn’t post as securely as I would like so I don’t post it. It lives at my desk so that isn’t an issue. My minor complaints about the pen would be major complaints if I intended to carry this pen around.

I don’t, though, so I am really pleased with it.

I’ve been using this to ink a few pictures, and it’s a lot of fun, it’s firm so you can keep a pretty consistent width, but applying enough pressure will still vary the linewidth. It’s a lot more fun to use than multiliners.

I use it with the Tachikawa Comic Pen nib holder model 40 and it fits great.

These are actually Nikko brand G nibs and not Deleter. They are just repackaged. I have ordered the maru nibs from Deleter and those were actually Deleter branded nibs. These are amazing and Nikko G nibs are known for their quality so i can’t complain.

These nibs are capable of making hairline thick lines to lines that are 1. 3mm in thickness. Gives a bit more line variation than a Brause N°361 “Blue Pumpkin” and holds it’s ink a bit better. I can’t say much for durability but it seems sturdy enough and i don’t see any of these nibs breaking unless you handle them like an animal.

It’s just a smooth and enjoyable nib and a must have for any artist.

Well I give this pen five stars! It has amazing ink flow and pressure! I would recommend this product to comic/manga artist due to the line control. But I must warn you that there is a special coating in the pen to make sure that it dosent rust, but a toothbrush and some some soap would help get that off.

Be mindful that if you dont get the coating removed the ink on your pen would slip right off. But all in all this is a must have and please keep these in stock. Thanks Jetpens!!!.

I just used these for a portrait for Inktober. I was afraid there was going to be a learning curve and set out a piece of scrap paper to practice on. Easy dip in the ink bottle, tap off the excess and one stroke later I realized how easy to use these pens are! My drawing turned out great.

Highly recommend!.

These are great pens, especially used with Walnut Ink. They have a softer quality than metal nibs. The opposing ends make different marks, though the difference between the three sizes is not as apparent.

#sweepstakes.

I am amazed by the versatility of such a simple tool. It cleans up well, it is becoming nicely weathered by the ink I use the more I use the tool. I am so pleased with it.

Anyone looking to increase their productivity should get one of these pens. They have helped me save so much time and paper by letting me fix my mistakes instead of throwing out work. I also find these pens to be very comfortable and easy to write with, they flow more smoothly than the other erasable pens I’ve tried.

Could not recommend enough! One caveat though, they DO run out of ink quickly, so get refills in advance. Officeworks sells refills and they’re very affordable. Worth every cent.

Pros: It erases which is a good think for students and teachers in order to keep a clean sheet. Cons: Sometimes the ball point releases more gel than needed and it leaves stain marks

Looks great and the engraving is nicely done, although the colour red is more like pink, that’s something I did not expect. Overall cool design!

I love this pen; I ordered 10 of them this time. It writes smoothly on a huge variety of papers (including ones that my fountain pens hate), and both the lavender-black color and. 38 width are ideal for me.

And the ink is water-resistant (pigment-based), so you can highlight or watercolor over it. The color is more violet than the ink in the violet-black Uni-ball Vision Elite pen, which I thought was too drab—and that one was also a tad more purpley (I mean more toward the red than the blue side).

If I’d read the reviews before I purchased this, I would probably be a lot less disappointed. It’s much paler than it looked in the sample (surprising but not necessarily bad), and the consistency of the ink is terrible.

This brand has always been reliable for me, but it looks like this specific color is hit or miss; some pens work great, and others are pretty much unusable. I was unlucky.

I like the color of this pen, the smoothness of the ink, its comfortable grip section, and just the fact that it’s cheaper than other gel pens without skimping on quality. But I’m disappointed in the fact that this color is only available in size.

38mm. On the compatible refills page, there aren’t any of this brown color available. So. if I want to keep using this pen, does that mean I have to keep buying completely new ones as soon as mine runs out? That feels wasteful.

I wonder if JetPens just doesn’t have that refill in their stock, or if Uni doesn’t sell the inks as separate refills to begin with.

Bought these for the whole sixth grade student body at our school. It was for a No Tardy Party. The kids loved them and there were no issues with all the different colors of ink working. Loved the idea that you could clip them on to a lanyard or backpack.

So clever to have a clip built in! The kiddos who received these were excited by that feature– they can always have a pen handy that no one else gets to touch.

I enjoy the way the InkJoy pens flow when writing. the ballpoint makes for smooth transitions in the linework where signing. The stylus portion of the pen was decent. It did function for the most part but I felt that I needed to apply a lot of pressure to use it properly.

What a great combo of a super smooth writing pen and a stylus. The pen has a great, solid, bold line that dries instantly. The stylus is really smooth and functions very well on my touchscreens. I’ll be stocking up on these.

Love the pen, and the stylus works better than most I have tried. My biggest problem is I cart them off and leave them places so I have to get another one out of the box.

This is an exceptional buy for the price! Wish I had gotten the 100 color pack now but for what I am using them for I didn’t need that many colors. The 30 pack fit my need better. I repair older guitar amplifiers and sometimes have to draw the chassis component layouts.

I use the color gel pens to label component values in the drawings. It make them easier to locate when looking at the drawing. Capacitors, resistors, transistors, tubes, etc. are labeled in different colors which make them easier to locate on the drawing.

I used the product to separate some information on a spreadsheet. Then I realized that the ink was very light. I haven’t tried all the colors yet; the case makes them easy to keep together.

I love these markers! Like everything about them. I particularly like the way they can fix(so to speak) your small mistakes. By coloring over the mistake,it works

Great for journaling and sketching. The tip is fairly thick so works well for titles or bold thoughts. I love using one for brainstorming and in Austen Kleon’s ‘Steal Like an Artist Journal’, where the lavish thick paper and these lavish pen tips are a lovely combo.

Love the fact that you can refill these fiber-tipped pens. I use one of the Goulet syringes and replace the original ink with DeAtramentis Cucumber ink. Beautiful flow with any of the DeAtramentis colors.

How cool is that? When I use mine in company, these pens get shown more interest than any of my fountain pens. My youngest just requested one for their birthday so, of course, now need to order more.

:-).

These Preppy markers are a great value and experience–they offer the ability to use fountain pen ink (and the variety of colors it comes in) in a felt-tip marker form. They spread the ink out a little more than a nib does, so I find that the ink doesn’t bleed through less fountain pen-friendly paper as easily as it might with a fountain pen.

I eyedropper-converted mine with Goulet’s o-rings and silicone grease, and I haven’t had any issues with leaking. The cap snaps and posts securely, and these feel pretty solid and well-built, especially considering that they’re only $3.

I would definitely recommend adding one to your next Goulet purchase!.

The Platinum Preppy is a neat little marker. I got a pair of them with converters, one for myself and my wife. It works as advertised: apply ink to marker, apply marker to surface, surface is gets inked.

The main thing I’d caution is that if you’re using a liquid fountain pen ink like Noodler’s, you need to be prepared for a very heavy, very wet line: even the thicker inks, such as Heart of Darkness, will produce a line that will bleed through to the other side of all but the heaviest writing paper.

That said, as a replacement for a Sharpie for marking on folders, cardboard, and other porous, cellulose-based surfaces where you want a heavy, thick, permanent line, I do recommend this marker.

These products have been tried and tested. They are sensational. The net bag is gold convenience! Reliable and durable. The pen has delightful flowing ink. Thank you for stocking these milligram.

This pen is great for bold sticky note reminders and titles on manila folders. It gives a thick line on paper or cardstock WITHOUT bleeding like an alcohol based marker. I find myself using it a lot and always keep it in reach.

This was my first ever fountain pen, received as a young child. We had a local stationery store, that offered many wonderful items (I still visit when I’m in town!), including a display of individually sold pens near the cash register.

Pilot Varsity Disposable pens in a variety of colors are sold there to this day, and while I can’t remember buying it, I’m sure this is how it ended up in my home. I’m guessing my mom thought it was a ballpoint when she bought it – we were a typical American family, and most pens in my household were crystal Bics.

I have very fond memories of making a huge mess with this pen all over my fingers and whatever paper I was using, as no one thought to explain to me which side of a fountain pen you put against the paper, and where your fingers shouldn’t go.

I even remember being certain that the “wrong” way must be correct, because the other way produced so much more ink than the ballpoints I was used to. It made me feel like a very fancy adult. I loved the color, and the smooth as glass feel of sliding the right side of the nib against good paper.

The smell still takes me back, I wouldn’t call it unpleasant or strong (honestly, I love it), but it’s distinctive. I’m still looking for an ink of the same consistency and color. It’s almost purple, in fact when looking to recreate my childhood, I accidentally bought the purple model, because I remembered it as my “purple” pen.

I’m very grateful to Jetpens for letting me rediscover this love of fountain pens and fine stationery as an adult, now with reusable models, and smaller nib sizes. (Don’t assume this pen goes by typical Japanese nib sizes – the medium is quite wide!) But I’m also very grateful for this pen, for introducing me to pens being something that can inspire joy.

I would recommend this as an introductory pen for a child or adult, or just an enjoyable affordable model, that is if you enjoy a wide nib, wet flow, and intense but reliable color. It’s also the only fountain pen I would ever bring to work, as I am a receptionist, and other employees in a rush regularly use my pens.

Watching my boss unexpectedly use my brush pen was enjoyable, but if she had used too much pressure on one of my fine nibbed fountain pens, I would have been very sad. If I was introducing fountain pens to a child today, I would have access to more options (thank you again JetPens!), but this one kept working regularly well with a lot of abuse.

A child used to the pressure needed for ballpoint pens could use this one without ripping their paper, which I think could be a frustration using the Preppy, for instance.

I use another pen, Mont Blanc, but the reviews online indicate that the Pilot Varsity is a worthy competitor. I still remember the transition to ball points, and have never found them truly satisfactory.

They require too much pressure, frequently stop up, and wrote with no distinction. I am a full time historical fiction author and now write my first drafts out by hand. This slows my mind down enough to form creative ideas.

I am an expert in dictation, use Dragon Naturally Speaking 15. 6 on my computer, and a digital voice recorder while hiking. These are fast and easy, but the fountain pen saves my hands and really engages with my writing.

Highly recommend using the Pilot Varsity.

This was my first fountain pen. I picked it up to meet the free shipping quota, but now I bought some reusable ones. The ink is definitely a dark purple. When I scan it in by phone it looks nearly black or navy blue, but in person you can definitely tell it is purple.

The line is pretty wide. It probably depends on paper and how fast you are writing, but sometimes it is as thick as the line of a brand new sharpie. Not necessarily a bad thing, but something to keep in mind.

I really love the Cocoiro Pen Body and I love the colors. I plant to buy them all. The only thing about it I wish was better is the writing of the pen name disappears because of so much usage. I wish the writing stays and doesn’t fade, otherwise, I love it.

My daughters love these pens. They write beautifully. Highly recommend.

Love the Cocoiro line for the fun barrel colors and the black ink pens are juicy and a joy to write with. The only downside to these is that the logo on the clip fades with use.

I’ve owned different colored pens and usually I get tired and can’t wait to simply use them up, but not this set. The colors are beautiful and really different from each other (vs overlapping). The ink is nice, too, and writes smoothly.

It would have been the perfect pen except for one major flaw. Unlike Pilot or even Bic Gelocity, these pens can potentially randomly not write, like the ink “drying up” even when it’s full and you would have to let it sit for a moment for it to write again.

I thought it was only one pen at another store that had this problem, but I ran in on this problem with two pens in this set. They still write but you’d have to keep on pausing. So far, it was only three (including the one bought at another store) pens that had it, but that makes it consistent enough to know that the ink can be randomly unreliable and you never know which one would act up until you start writing a lot.

For reference, I write several pages in my journal per day, and that’s why I noticed this problem. But good pens should not have that problem, such as other brands. I would enjoy these pens until they last, but I may not buy them again for this reason.

I came on here to read reviews to see if anyone else had a similar experience with these pens or if I just got a bad batch. Turns out everyone agrees the quality just sucks. I’ve had these pens for ages and they are mostly all still full of ink (which, yes, you can SEE because the barrel has a transparent window!!) and yet every.

single. time. without fail, when I pick one up and start writing, the tip stops putting out ink within a few words. It’s absolutely infuriating to be able to see the ink, to shake the pen and take it apart and do anything you can think of, and yet it refuses to write.

It’s so sad. The few words I was able to get out were absolute bliss, the color was vibrant and beautiful and then out of nowhere I was blindsided, the beauty was over. A pen is supposed to do ONE thing, which is write, so if it can’t do that, it’s essentially worthless and a scam.

I guess they look pretty when I lay them out in rainbow order but c’mon man, they’re pens.

It all began in the early 1940s, when Patrick J. Frawley, a businessman, saw opportunities where others saw problems, during a time when the pen industry was struggling since poor product performances were happening and began the expedition to find a better and improved pen ink that would have a good effect in the pen industry.

Boy, did they make one, this product is amazing, they’re just so good! I’m a credible consumer since I bought this product myself and use it frequently. I recommend the papermate gel pens 0. 7 because they’re so comfortable to work with.

First of all if you’re looking for pens that dry fast. these are the ones for you. They dry as soon as you finish writing! I have bought so many gel pens but most of them always smudged and it’s frustrating, but with these you’d never get angry.

Another reason why these are great is because the pens all have a comfortable grip. So your hands won’t hurt or be tired unless you’re writing fast and vigorously using them. The packs have many colorful colors, they have more than 10 colors.

They also run so smoothly and satisfyingly. You can see the amount of ink you have left through a transparent part the pen has too. The pens are also cheap. They cost less than 25 dollars. I strongly recommend this product for those who like to use pens for work, school or a hobby.

That’s only because these people will most likely use and enjoy them. ​ ​Before buying them you should know that there’s different packs of 22, 20 and less ( I have the 14 pack). You should also know that there are no refills for the pens, but don’t​ ​sweat it because they last long!.

In my illustration work I generally use waterproof pigment pens or India ink and nib pens,and then use transparent watercolour over them. When I purchased these pens it didn’t occur to me to check if they were waterproof because I made an assumption that if it is called a “sketch” pen then it will be waterproof.

My assumption was wrong. Not only did water media bleed the ink but I couldn’t find a white-out paint that wouldn’t just smear into grey. It’s too bad because I love the flow and the variation of line I can get with these.

I will keep using these pens as I love the way they work and feel, but the art will have to be scanned and then coloured digitally. The pens also work well if you colour first and then apply the ink linework.

I love the pen! Had to do some sleuthing to find it, as I own one I bought many years ago under the name Pentel “Fountain”, so I only ordered one of this model because I could not see the tip clearly enough online to know if it had the same unique tip as my old pen.

But, thankfully, it DOES, so I’m very happy! THANK YOU!!.

My mother gave this to me as a gift and I struggled to find a replacement for when the ink runs out. I’m so glad I found it! I’m planning on buying more pentel products because of this pen.

I bought three of the kits to extend our chicken run and they have been great for their intended use. I modified the setup and they are working out great. The only complaint I have is the locking mechanism.

We were unable to get them to line up properly, which leaves them less than secure but have been okay. We’ll probably wind up drilling new holes so they work better but honestly i think it’s the design of the panels.

If you have a perfectly level area they probably work great but unfortunately these are setup in a pasture attached to our existing run so there is that. I love being able to walk in to this party of the run and would buy them again if the need arose.

I cannot say anything as to the durability of the covers or panels because we’ve only had them setup for a few weeks. Time will tell, but so far so good. Shipping and delivery were within the designated window so no complaints there.

The pen itself, I am happy with and would give it 5 stars. However, I assumed that the cutout panel would work with Producer’s Pride Sentinel chicken coop since they are the same brand. It does not. Because of the way the roof is positioned, the coop run is two high to fit within the cutout.

I ended up removing the last panel of the coop run and am using hardwire cloth to cover the gaps between the coop and pen. It should be clearly stated in the description that the pen does not work with their coops.

I was very disappointed.

I would give it 5 stars but the ink cartridge is horrible. I used it for a week and it started leaking so every time I use it the first letter has a huge smudge. Trying to find an equivalent Fisher replacement.

Very happy with this purchase. Really wanted the black but they had run out so went with the purple. The mini plastic case it comes in is very cool too.

Looks nice and more ergonomic than the TP02. No major issues with the pen itself. Included refill isn’t very good.

I have purchased several hundred pens multiple orders. Here is a few of the problems I experienced. 1. All pens no mater what style prematurely quits writing 2. Stylus rupturs and leaks ink 3. Customer service horrible.

They sent me pens with logo and print so small you can barely read. It was clearly smaller then proof. When I complained they responded no its the same. When it clearly was not. 4. Customer service doesn’t speak clear English.

I said what 30 times 5. I took my business elsewhere. And budget $1000. 00 per years on pens alone.

The overall experience has been great! It is easy to purchase, the website is super interactive, so you can see your design happening live. The pens came relatively fast and the product is great. The pen is a really nice pen, it also writes really smooth.

And the added bonus stylus works amazing too! Will purchase again for our company marketing products.

I purchased an assorted package of 50 of the engraved alpha stylus pen in dark grey, light grey and pink, all with rose gold trim. We were having a Christmas party and I wanted to give our guests their Christmas cards along with a pen as they were leaving.

Everyone LOVED their pens and I think now I will be doing this every year. It was a great purchase.
