Glides on Paper Easily

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing these pens for me to review. I am loving these Staples ProGel Retractable Pens as the ink glides so smoothly on paper. The red color is fantastic for grading! I appreciate the comfort grip. The push button at the top removes the contention of losing a pen cap. Overall I would definitely purchase these pens or recommend them to someone else.

Comfortable Pen
on November 20, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I quite liked the comfortability of this pen and it worked well. I personally prefer a thinner ballpoint but the packaging is clear that it is a bold write. I also appreciated that it works when writing with either hand which is rare!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen is an absolute game-changer for anyone who loves writing whether it’s jotting down notes or crafting a novel. First the sleek design is both modern and functional with a solid build that feels durable and professional. The vibrant blue ink adds a polished touch to every word on the page. The pen’s standout feature is its comfort. The grip is soft and ergonomic making extended writing sessions a breeze. It glides effortlessly across the page with no skips or interruptions—a must for anyone who needs reliability. And the ink? Perfection. It dries almost instantly ensuring there’s never a smudge in sight. What I love most about this pen is its consistency. It delivers smooth bold lines every time and the 1.0mm tip strikes the perfect balance between precision and expressiveness. Whether you’re brainstorming or drafting your next masterpiece this pen won’t let you down. Highly recommend it for anyone who values quality in their writing tools!

Precision Pen
on November 20, 2024

from NOBLESVILLE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprised at how well this "generic" pen ranked compared to the leading pens on the market. I was expecting a ho hum standard pen but what I got was a far superior pen. I typically by fine point pens as I usually need something that has some precision to it. But I was so impressed to see this "bold" pen. I was able to write tiny and legible. Each letter was clear without bleed and precise. The ink came out beautifully. There was no initial shake or doodles to get the ink flowing nor were there moments in the life of the pen when it suddenly "dried up." The ergonomic cushion is a little more than I'm used to but I really liked it and it seemed to fit my hand well. 10/10 would buy.

Love These Pens

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples ProGel Retractable Pens are my new favorites. They write smooth and don’t leave a smudge at all! They are easy to hold and grip to prevent any slipping. The ink is a bold black which is great for the type of work I do. I’ve replaced all of my pens with these and even brought a box to take to my office. I highly recommended!

Smooth writing with no smudging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel pen is a sleek design with a clear barrel so you can see the ink level. The pen is retractable pen and very comfortable to write with its rubberized grip. The ink glides on the paper which I absolutely love! I most appreciate the gel ink dries nearly instantly so it doesn’t smudge. This pen is a 10!

Fluid and comfort in the Staples Gel pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Gel pen with its vibrant red ink has truly brought my writing to have emphasis and clarity. Whether I'm jotting down a simple grocery list or noting important calendar events or my kids expressing their creativity. The pen glides effortlessly across the page preserving a remarkable smoothness that enhances the clarity of my letters and their art work. While the Staples Gel pen may not help my penmanship this pen ensures that my notes stand out beautifully even when I highlight over them. The ink remains bold and precise without any smudging allowing every word to retain its sharpness and definition. The pen glides smoothly across the paper making writing a comfortable experience. I would certainly buy the varieties that Staples Gel pens offer and recommend them to my family and friends. Try Staples Gel pens and you won't be disappointed.

Gel without the mess
on November 20, 2024
Posted by: AS
from Somerville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a teacher my go to pen is either gel or felt tip. I typically steer away from gel pens when I have to sign reports because they always smear - always! These pens however do the exact opposite! They write like gel and have the gel feel - you know that amazing gliding feeling while you write! - and they dry almost immediately. I absolutely LOVE using them in my classroom. The only thing I'm not a fan of and to be honest it's just me being picky is the clicking sound when you retract the pen. It's a little "click-ier" than usual retractable pens. But if you're a gel pen lover and hate the mess I definitely would recommend these!
