Great no smudge pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these pens. I love a good clicker gel pen and this one did not disappoint. It always feels like I have to be careful to not smudge the ink with a gel pen but even when I tried to intentionally smudge the writing I couldn’t! This definitely fits the bill for a lower cost higher quality pen you can rely on to work well. It was comfortable to write with and write smoothly without skipping or having splotchy ink.

Bold and smooth

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pens glides smoothly and leaves a bold mark. The pen felt extremely comfortable to use and I had no issue with it writing as I took notes for a class. I love to conserve paper usage and I love that the Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pens do not bleed through and the writing does not show on the other side. The only con that I had with the pen is that it can smudge a bit due to the pen residue not drying as quick but other than that this pen is absolutely amazing. Another benefit from the staples brand is that it comes in a 5 pack when others tend to often offer only 3 packs. I used a pen all week to take notes and took approximately 13 pages worth of notes and still had a bunch of ink left over. Overall I give the Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pens a 9/10 and would definitely use again!

Great Pens

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are awesome! They are super smooth and I love the fine point for clear writing. My husband is a teacher and he keeps stealing these away from me. They're very comfortable with an ergonomic grip and I use them for a lot of writing happily. Coming from a family with serious pen use (teacher full-time nursing student and 7 year old obsessed with pens) we are very happy with these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] overall impression of these pens was really good they are nice and “inky” just the way I like a pen. The ink was bold and fine point was very precise. They are comfortable to write with and the grip felt good in my hand. Would recommend these pens to a friend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pen writes really nicely! The grip is great and not too big and bulky and not too small. It writes very smooth and makes my penmanship look nice!

Glides smoothly as you write
on June 12, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen 1.0mm. It writes like a trusty ballpoint pen stable and secure but the ink glides like a gel pen on vacation. It's super smooth with crisp clean lines and the ink dries in about a second. No smudging no weird ink smell just pure writing joy. It's comfortable to hold and totally dependable.
