About Retractable Gel Pens
Overall Feedback:
89% positive
79% liked the durable tip, while 21% found it wore down
Some pens felt harsh while writing and were scratching the paper.
82% praised the smudge-resistant ink, yet 18% didn't
I found that the pen doesn't smudge on most surfaces, but it smears on extra glossy surfaces. Waiting for 5-10 seconds for it to dry resolves the issue.
I have found that this pen minimally bleeds through paper and does not smudge, unlike other pens I have used.
The ink never seems to dry and it smears the next day.
If I use the pen as a left-handed person, it smudges.
85% praised the ink quality
None of our pens have issues with ink skipping or clogging.
87% praised the comfortable grip, but 13% found it slippery
I find the pen comfortable to hold and it writes great.
I have a pen with a great grip that does not slip from my hand.
The pen barrel is made of a matte soft material that provides comfort while gripping and writing for a long time.
I found the pen to be small and the grip a little awkward.
79% appreciated the quick drying time, but 21% found it dried slowly
The drying time of our pens is the fastest, which is a positive aspect of our product.
After using the pens again after an hour of first trying them, I noticed they became much smoother and there was no scratching of paper on the same kind of paper, indicating good drying time.
I opened the package and found that one-third of the pack was completely dried up. Another one-third dried up after writing a few sentences.
Many of the colors started to dry out less than a month in.
