1884309 Low Odor Markers Assorted 8 Count Reviews Summary

Marker Quality

Pros:

• "This is exactly what I was looking for. I needed a marker that has an extra/refined tip for my fridge calendar."
• "Super fine tip that actually stays fine, so you can write all over your family calendar and everyone can still read it."
• "They make a nice, thin line."
• "The markers themselves write smoothly and cleanly on whiteboards."
• "Perfect for our dry erase family calendar. Colors are bright and it writes in a fine tip so you can fit a lot in a small space!"
• "Expo's ultra-fine tip markers are perfect for my fitness whiteboard - no fumes to distract me, and the colors help me track progress with ease!"
• "Great pen and comes with nice sharp tip. Used it heavily and works very well."

Cons:

• "At first they worked fine but then they started to fade which I thought was odd since they were still new."
• "Its like the ink was dried up. You could barely see the ink."
• "Literally half of the markers did not write at all. Very disappointed."
• "Most of the markers don't write, seems like they have little to no ink in them."
• "The rest of the colors are so dull they don’t show up well."
• "The ink dried out in 5 of the 8 markers in the packet I received within a short period of time."
• "The black one came completely dead and I couldn’t write at all with it straight out of the package."

Durability and Longevity

Pros:

• "They can last several months of light use, no problem."
• "They also have lasted awhile and don’t run clear."
• "These markers are long-lasting and do not dry out quickly, even with regular use."
• "I've had dry erase markers last for 6-9 months with no problem."
• "They write clearly and last a very long time."
• "The ink in them lasts maybe a year, with only using them once monthly."
• "These markers have been great on our at-home message board. From menu planning to family notes, these are still going strong months after purchase."

Cons:

• "Sometimes the tips fray and don't write as clearly."
• "Doesn't last long enough. With very little use, the ink just lasted for 20 days."
• "The tip becomes less pointy. Over time it will flatten and no longer be ultra fine."
• "The pink color came somewhat dried out but I can still use it but I think that will be the first one go."
• "I loved the sharpness of these when they first arrived, but after only a couple weeks of light use they completely lose their sharpness."
• "Starts off nice and crisp but before the day was even over, it was already fading in color intensity and the tip was already flattened a bit."
• "Literally used 3 of the markers one time and when I went back a couple weeks later to use them again every single marker was dried out."

Design and Ease of Use

Pros:

• "These are like writing in a regular fine point pen. Which is great if you have to write a lot in a small space."
• "Works great with thin lines to fit in the space provided."
• "Love the variety of colors, as well as the fine point tip."
• "The fine tip on these is super easy to use and the different colors makes organizing you white board easy."
• "Perfect precision tip for writing on the family whiteboard calendar. We've got lots of events to squeeze into the boxes and the color coding helps too!"
• "The fine tip allows for precise writing and drawing, without any smudging or streaking."
• "If you are looking to write small and neatly on a dry erase board then these are what you need!"

Cons:

• "This ultra fine point marker is too sharp and scratches white board."
• "The tip becomes less pointy. Over time it will flatten and no longer be ultra fine."
• "The black marker’s tip is messed up I guess because it’s much thicker than the others, definitely not ultra fine."
• "These started out extra sharp fine line, but because the tip is felt, it bends after just a minute and that makes the line thicker than it was."
• "I like the ultra-thin tip markers, but it seems after a few uses, the tip softens and the lines are not as sharp."
• "The only thing I don't like is that the tips smoosh after a short time so things aren't so much fine point anymore."
• "The tips get destroyed easily."

Color and Visibility

Pros:

• "The colors are bright and colorful and the quality is excellent."
• "Colors are vibrant; great selection of colors; I use these for our family whiteboard calendar and can color code events for each family member."
• "The colors are vibrant and easy to see from a distance, making them perfect for presentations or brainstorming sessions."
• "Bright and vibrant colors that pop on any whiteboard."
• "They write nice, and are very pigmented."
• "The ink colors are bold and visible."
• "All other colors (including pink, surprisingly) work great."

Cons:

• "The rest of the colors are so dull they don’t show up well."
• "The color is extremely light. Not able to see on our family calendar, that’s why I got the multi color pack."
• "The dark colors work great, but the red, orange and green are so pale, they are mostly useless."
• "Most of the lighter colors (pink, red, orange) don’t really show up very well and aren’t visible if you’re not standing directly in front of the board."
• "The colors are not bright. You can literally BARELY SEE anything you draw or write on a dry erase board with these."
• "The light color markers are really light. I wondered why they would make those if the color on the board is one you really cannot see?"
• "The blue and red have faded to be barely discernible."
