Overall Feedback:
95% positive

I rarely experience ink leakage or excess ink at the tip with this pen.
93% praised the smudge-resistant ink, yet 7% didn't
The pens are great - they don't smear or leave too much ink. I've purchased at least 200 over the years and never faced any issues like leaking or breaking.
I have not faced any smudge problem while using the pen. The ink dries within a second or two and doesn't smudge.
Gel pens can smear a bit, even Pilot G2 occasionally smears until dry.
91% appreciated the easy refilling process, but 9% found it messy
I have to purchase ink refills frequently as it depletes quickly.
93% praised the ink quality, but 7% found it prone to smudging
The ink quality of this pen is far superior to any other in its class currently on the market.
If I use poor quality paper, impressions of my writing appear on the other side of the page because the ink is on the wetter side.
I have noticed that the ink supply is inconsistent and there are gaps where the ink has not marked the page.
95% praised the comfortable grip, but 5% found it slippery
I find the grip to have a great balance weight.
The pen has a larger shaft which is perfect for me as I have big hands and find pencil thin pens hard to grip. The comfort grip helps relieve pain while using the pen for hours.
I find the pen comfortable to hold with a great grip for fidgeting. The ink quality is also nice with a fine point.
The comfort grip significantly improves the pen's user-friendliness.

85% appreciated the quick drying time, but 15% found it dried slowly
I have to be careful not to smear the slow-drying gel ink.
87% liked the wide range of colors, but 13% didn't
The set has all usable colors except for yellow or palest greens which do not meet visibility qualifications.
