Durability and Longevity

Pros:

• "They have lasted through a fair amount of use."
• "They've lasted much longer than expected, dont leak, havnt dried out so theyre durable."
• "These markers have proven to be long-lasting, and the ink doesn't run out quickly."
• "These are perfect... I've needed the fine tip for some time (for the instax mini black film and scrapbooking). Most fine tip aren't fine. These are perfect."
• "I tried the markers myself and loved the vibrancy of the colors!"
• "The ink dries rather quickly and does not smear."
• "These work great! No fuss, no mess, and better yet the colors are vibrant."

Cons:

• "The markers do dry out really fast even though I’ve hardly used them."
• "These markers collapse under very little use."
• "Marker tips are too soft/cheap and easily crush if you push too hard, which then makes the marker somewhat useless."
• "I got these to use on ceramic tiles and they do not dry completely."
• "Literally 4 days after receiving it 7 of the twelve are drying out."
• "Went to use them the next day at work and they were ALL dried out."
• "Some are already dried out when I opened then. Can't use about a third of them. Cheap quality"

Application and Versatility

Pros:

• "They write really well on glass. Dab of rubbing alcohol easily took it off."
• "Great on dark paper and colored paper but wonderful on white too!"
• "I bought these specifically for black cardstock paper and most of the colors come out vibrant and great."
• "These are awesome. I don’t usually leave reviews but I had to for these. They are smooth and write on everything, and don’t splatter like the paint pens if they get caught on a snag."
• "These glide smoothly over the thick paper I am working with and show up nicely against the black paper I have, which was what I was most concerned about."
• "These markers work like a charm on various surfaces, including black paper, rocks, ceramics, glass, and even wine glasses."
• "These pens help up to a lot of use, the tips didn't fray and they were bright and easy to use on black paper- the ink didn't bleed or smear."

Cons:

• "Do NOT purchase for writing on polaroid film!"
• "Bought mainly for 'metallic' feature... I've only tried 2, but there is nothing metallic about them."
• "These work nice for rock painting. Although this does not give a great fine line for writing words."
• "The only downside to the product is that the orange that came is already dry."
• "They do not “paint” metal. They draw on bubbly (like magic marker or watercolors on wax paper) and wipe right off."
• "But they do not stay on glasses!!!"
• "They were not made and never should have been marketed to paint on rocks."
