Better Than Expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never so excited about a gel pen in my life! As soon as I took it out of the package I could feel that it was more comfortable than other pens I usually use. The slight flat parts on the grip fit so well in my fingers. That along with the smooth glide of the pen across paper make it almost effortless to use! It does not crease my paper and doesn’t feel “scratchy” on any type of paper I’ve tried it on. The ink dries incredibly quickly and does not bead up when holding pen still. This is excellent for me being left handed as I am very used to accidentally smearing the words I write. Compared to other gel pens I’ve used this one takes the cake! Definitely will be buying more in the future!

The pen was more than I expected
on March 21, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first got the staples gel pens I thought they were not going to meet my expectations. The packet came with plenty of pens for at home office and to have some in my purse. At a glance it looks like a simple pen...however once you start using it you will fall in love with them. They are so light and easy to write with. I got the blue ink pro gel pens and the color is so rich and vibrant. The ink dries of pretty fast compared to other pens. I have used my pen for some time and the ink seems to last longer. I tend to lose pens but I will be taking care of this one !!!

Smooth and dark ProGel Pen
on March 21, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do a lot of writing at my job in the records and registration department of a big high school so I am a pen snob and mainly write with retractable gel pens. This 0.7mm fine point gel pen is my new absolute favorite! It writes so smooth and precise and the ink is a rich dark black that dries right away. The "deepness" of the ink is what makes it better than the rest. I used to switch to a permanent marker to write on colored file folders but can now use this gel pen all day long (see photo). The bottom folder is written with this ProGel pen the middle folder is with a permanent marker and the top folder is written with the gel pen I used before. This pen has a ribbed contour cushion grip that is a mm thicker and placed several mm higher than I'm used to but I easily adjusted. The ink doesn't leak or bleed through paper and rarely smudges. The only time it smears is when used on top of correction tape and then you touch it with your hand or try to use a highlighter on top of it but this is normal of all gel pens I've used. I just know to give it some time to dry before going over the writing with a highlighter. I haven't ben using it that long so I can't speak to it's longevity yet but I usually use a pen a month. I covet the ProGel pens I have! I've even put my intials on them in case I leave it at someone else's desk LOL.

Writes Beautifully

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are great for my everyday writing and also perfect for using at work. I do a lot of note taking when on phone calls and also filling in forms so having a pen that I can rely on is important. I get consistent results every time I use it and it does dry quickly so I haven't had any issues with smearing. The bold color makes it easy to read and it never skips when I'm writing.

from Henderson
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I write all day for work and what I loved most is this pen is always ready to write! No skipping no drying out it never smeared and the ink never ran or bled through papers. The grip is very comfortable to write with and the ink is so smooth regardless of the angle you hold the pen for printing and/or cursive lettering. I completely recommend this pen for your professional and personal needs

Not bad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First impression standard package average gel pen. The pen has a retractable feature and writes with a smooth finish and dries evenly. The pen provides a comfortable grip with a rubber/silicone grip holder. It would be my everyday pen if it was a little thinner. It’s perfect for everyday use or for legal documents. I personally prefer thinner pens for journaling and writing. I also thought the drying time is comparable to other pens so I don’t think it stands out. I am always on the hunt for a good quality pen with a good price point. Thank you Stellar Testing Products Panel for the opportunity to test this product and provide my honest feedback!

Fantastic ProGel Pens at Staples

from Apex
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have you tried the Staples ProGel Pens yet? If you haven't you definitely need to get some of your own! I am a bit of a pen snob when it comes to a good gel pen. The biggest problems I usually encounter are slow drying time smearing when I try to write on different surfaces and cramping in my fingers from having to grip the pen so hard. These pens write smoothly out of the package without having to grip hard due to an ergonomic comfort grip. They also work on different types of surfaces not just paper. The ink dried quickly was smear free on a calendar (and we know that pens usually don't work on those) and also watercolor paper. If you love to doodle like I do these pens are a must have. I
