    I’m so disappointed in these pens. Of the 6 pens, not one of them write consistently, even if I write or draw slowly. Paper Mate missed the mark on these BIG TIME. I even bought a 2 pack of the white ones hoping for better results and they were also garbage.

    I enjoy using these when they work. Initially they all worked. They gave me issues writing consistently unless i use them everyday. I current cannot get the pink/red or green to work at all. Not worth the price.

    Of the pens I purchased in a set, 3 did not write or work at all, and the other 2 would skip as I wrote. I would recommend not purchasing this item and I'm a huge papermate inkjoy fan. These are just not like their other products.

    Loved them for their vivid color and ability to write on a dark surface. They immediately started drying up once I started using them and a week later they are all junk.

    I found the pens need to "warm up" each time before they are used if they have sat for more than about 30 minutes. By warming up I mean to simply make a few lines on a piece of scrap paper until the pen is leaving consistent ink behind. I found this ink to be less like a dye and more like paint. Really great for certain applications. Not a pen to write a long essay with, but rather for short notes or comments that stand out easily to the eye.

    The pens did not work, as super spotty and would like a return. Over 10$ for them and a complete waste of my money. I would like a refund.

    Super cute and fun colors. I love these to use as a left-handed person. Barely smudges and it’s my go-to.

    The ink sucks coming out, I tried using these i bought black sticky notes and was excited to use the white on black and it was trash all of these were. I bought a set from Amazon that I like better but the ink shows invisible so it made me look for these but I am on the hunt again since these were trash

    I might have got a bad batch but no matter how much I write with them it's spotty. You have to really trace to get a clean line of ink.

    I never write reviews, but I had to basically throw all of these pens away. The ink would hardly come out on the paper. Awful

    I really wanted to like these! In fact, I do use them the best way possible when writting my notes by just using them to title sections. Unfortunately They skip so much when writting that I just can't use them in place of my G2 Pilots.

    These pens are great in theory but AWFUL in practice -they skip horribly, so much so that it's impossible to use. I thought maybe they just needed to "warm up", but all of the colors are affected and really, you can't use them. So sad, becaues the colors are so cute!
