About Paper Mate 1945925 InkJoy 300RT Retractable Ballpoint Pens
Overall Feedback:
80% positive
82% appreciated the precise writing
I find the pen ideal for smooth writing with precise lines. It writes consistently and evenly without any dry tips or globes of ink, making it perfect for important documents.
81% praised the ink quality, whereas 19% experienced skipping
The Papermate pen has dark, solid, and silky smooth ink quality.
The ink flows smoothly and consistently without any smearing.
I have to roll the ball back and forth over a piece of scratch paper a few times to get the ink flowing again when I pick up the pen after it has been sitting unused for a few minutes. This indicates that the ink quality is not consistent and requires some effort to get it flowing again.
I enjoy the writing quality when the pen works, but unfortunately, the ink hardly ever gets through to the tip.
83% liked the grip comfort, however 17% found it slippery
I love the grip of this pen, it doesn't cramp my hand like some others.
The grip of the pen makes even the longest writing sessions comfortable and the slim form factor makes it easy to maneuver while writing.
The grip of the pen is hardly noticeable and not squishy. It is more for preventing the pen from sliding around than for comfort. If you have finger pain while writing and need an extra soft grip, this pen is not for you.
82% appreciated the durability, but 18% found it wore out quickly
The retractable mechanism of my pen is very durable and has not broken, unlike some other (more expensive) pens from other brands.
I have lost 4 pens due to their poor durability as they unscrew themselves slowly with movement.
I had to remove the rubber grip from my pen because it was not durable enough. I used an Xacto knife to do so.
During regular use, the pen constantly becomes unscrewed which is quite annoying as I have to stop writing, screw it back together, and continue.
85% praised the quick-drying ink, while 15% noticed smudging
I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth the ink was and how fast it dried.
I bought these pens because I heard they had fast drying ink, but compared to a regular old Bic Clic pen the ink in these takes much longer to dry.
