Pros

- Smooth flow of ink with no skipping during coloring
- Good range of colors and ink types
- Color indicator on lid is a reliable indicator of the gel ink color
- Vibrant color
- Able to color in tight, detailed spaces
- Can often get “Two Packs for the Price of One” deals on Amazon
Cons
- No comfort grips
- No color id printed on barrel
- No white gel pen in the 48 pack
- Pens can be “scratchy” when first used but ink flow frees up once pen has been used
- Ink color can stop flowing while coloring and I found the pen needed to be rolled between my palms to warm the ink and start the ink flowing again
- Wet ink on application requires drying time and can easily smear until dry
- Some bleed through and shadowing on basic photocopy paper
- Thinner papers can buckle due to the wetness of the ink
Price Range
- $$ – typically AUD $5.01 – $20.00 / US $3.76 – $15.00 / £2.61 – £10.00 / €3.31 – €13.25
Comments / Recommendations
