Quality and Performance

Pros:

  • "Considering the exceptional quality and performance of this ball pen, it offers outstanding value for money."
  • "They write smoothly and they have not dried up!"
  • "Fine point tip makes writing and jotting notes a breeze."
  • "The quality of ball point Pentel RSVP opens are fine solid dark inked lines with no airpockets creating the loss of writing ability you usually encounter when you are pressed for time and need a dependable pen to work."
  • "Fine point produces an excellent, consistent density line."
  • "The ink used in this pen is of the highest quality."
  • "The ink flows smoothly and consistently, resulting in clean and precise lines."

Cons:

  • "It started bleeding after few paragraphs."
  • "I’m not sure why the ink is so weak."
  • "The ink is light, due to the poor flow."
  • "Now, little globs of ink come out periodically & smear across the paper."
  • "Written pages are horribly ugly, littered with blots of ink that leak THROUGH the page."
  • "This last box wasn't the same quality."
  • "The ink has thickened and blotted on occasion."

Design and Comfort

Pros:

  • "I love how long the pen is, it's clear so you can see the ink level to know when you're running out."
  • "I love the way they feel in my hand."
  • "This is the only pen in the world so far that allows me to write quickly and still have an elegant legible penmanship."
  • "These are sturdy you can see ink so know when it’s low and the pens have caps so you don’t accidentally write on your clothes."
  • "I really enjoyed the super comfortable grip and ease of writing that the pen offered."
  • "The slight thickness of these pens makes them easy to hold."
  • "The grip is perfectly contoured to fit the hand, reducing fatigue even during long writing sessions."

Cons:

  • "I'm really disappointed in these pens. They write nicely and are comfortable to hold, but they leave blobs of ink on the paper, which then smears if you touch it."
  • "ALL PENS except one have leaked like crazy as I write."
  • "It also isn't ergonomic- the pen is stiff with minimal grip."
  • "The only thing I've noticed is that sometimes the cap doesn't fit well on the end of the pen when using it and requires a bit of force to put on."
  • "The problem I find with it, is while I’m writing, my pen rests further down than the grip as the barrel is long."
  • "I wish they were the clicky pens so you don't have to risk losing the cap on it."
  • "The only thing she wishes is that the outside of the pen came in different colors or in a print to make it more fun and lively!"

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Why spend 10 bucks or more for one pen when you can get 12 for half the price?"
  • "They last a long time and the ink doesn't dry out in the pen."
  • "I literally order them by the box so I can use them at home and at work... and I don't even share!"
  • "But getting several great pens for under $10 is definitely worth the money spent."
  • "I purchase a box of 12 from Amazon for a little more than $8.00 which is a great price!"
  • "I was able to snag them for under 10.00 a dozen."
  • "Great price. Worth every penny!"

Cons:

  • "Don't buy these pens, they don't write. They're cheap but they must be old stock and they're dumping them on the consumer and they are dried up crap."
  • "Too bad I paid for a box of 12 and only got one single pen."
  • "I love Pentel RSVP (favorite to write with) and I received the pack of 12 with only 7."
  • "I received a package of ink pens that was supposed to contain 12 pens but there were only 8 in the package! Buyer beware!"
  • "This shipment the box was damaged and looked to have been resealed. Box only contained 11 pens and not 12."
  • "My box only had 9 pens in it instead of the 12 as listed."
  • "I placed an order for what I thought was a 12 pack of pens and only received ONE pen."
