Love Them Thick

from Saint Charles
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the 1.0mm thick ProGel pens. The thicker the better. My hand writing is so-so to begin with but with thicker point pens I tend to fair a bit better. This pen has what I feel is the new classic look without the premium price. Fits great in my hand doesn’t fade out when writing too quickly and looks good inside my portfolio. I’m always taking notes at work so having a pen that doesn’t run out of ink too quickly while also helping to keep my handwriting legible is huge for me. Very happy with these pens solid value.

High quality and glides easily

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m a huge fan of high quality pens that write well and these Staples Retractable ProGel Pens are perfect! I tried them on a couple difference paper types too and the results are consistently smooth writing. The grip is very comfortable and allows for nice control. I prefer retractable pens because ones with covers often go missing so this design is exactly what I prefer.

Great Pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pen writes extremely well on all different types of paper. The gel doesn’t run and the thickness of the works extremely for my writing style. The grip was smooth and writing over a long time did not cause any cramping. Overall good pen.

Great gel pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The look and design of the Staples ProGel pen is sleek and modern. The retractable feature is both practical and adds to its polished aesthetic. The soft grip is a nice touch providing a visually appealing contrast to the black barrel while ensuring functionality. In terms of comfort this pen excels. The ergonomic grip is soft yet firm enough to hold comfortably for long writing sessions without hand fatigue. The bold point glides effortlessly making it a pleasure to use whether you’re jotting quick notes or writing pages of text. The ink quality is impressive—smooth consistent and bold. The 1.0mm tip delivers rich dark black ink without smudging and the flow is steady even on different paper types. It dries quickly enough to avoid messes even for left-handed users. The best aspect of this pen is the overall writing experience. The combination of a bold point smooth ink and comfortable design makes it versatile and reliable for both professional and personal use. This is an excellent pen for anyone who values quality style and performance in their writing tools. Highly recommended!

Smooth Operator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen is called the smooth operator in my book (literally). Sleek and comfortable the gel pen fits and looks perfectly in between my fingers. The sleekness of the pens design creates a comfortability while excessive writing so you never stop in your quality of work. Never skipping a pen stroke or ink distribution while writing I love the neatness and output of the pens ink to paper finish. Definitely awarded the name Smooth Operator!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am actually very surprised with this pen. As soon as I took it out of the box it just felt different. The quality is perfect. I really love the grip it makes it super comfortable to hold and write without your fingers hurting after a while. The ink quality is very good very smooth and it doesn’t smear at all. I would totally recommend this to everyone I know.

Definitely Delivers

from West Reading
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen Bold Point 1.0 mm with blank ink through the Stellar Review Panel. I love a good gel pen and let me tell you this one definitely delivers! Outside of being excited this pen is retractable no bulky cap needed I was happy to see that the pen is transparent and allows you to see ink levels. It’s so frustrating to not know you’re getting low on ink and finding your pen not working during a meeting. I still prefer to take notes in a notebook so I found this pen not only comfortable in my grip during a 2-hour call but the ink flowed very smoothly and smudge-free as I wrote. I typically prefer a pen that’s very inky and wet but this pen allows me to take much cleaner looking notes. So far I’ve had no issues with the pen and would definitely recommend it to someone!
