Above Average Writing Utensil for Daily Needs
on November 20, 2024
Posted by: Andrea
from Edison
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I felt that the overall look and design of this pen was on par with most writing utensils in this range. The clear body tube design was adequate and the rubber grip helped keep my fingers on the pen without much slippage. It was relatively easy and comfortable to hold for long periods of time and definitely didn't cramp my fingers or hands. I felt that the ergonomic look and design of this pen was adequate and accomplished its needs of being a good pen design. Again this pen was pretty comfortable to write with and after using various types of media to create letters checks and other it was absolutely a pleasant experience. I felt that the ink quality was fine and on par with most gel pens. The ink didn't smear or smudge while writing and that's one of my pet peeves with most pens. I think the quick drying technology of this pen allowed for a good writing experience and it definitely made me privy to using it more often than not. I also felt that the ink/gel was thick enough to make a good imprint on the paper but the ability to not create smudges or smearing factor made it pretty convenient to use at all times or moments. I liked the overall contoured shape of the pen and the quick ink drying technology. If there was one thing that I could change about this product it would be to include more ink with the product. I felt that the gel ink could be filled a bit more than what was currently available. And I understand that the product package included more pens but I felt that it would be better for the environment to include more ink/gel refills than to include more pens. Other than that I felt that I'll continue using this product more in the foreseeable future because it's a pleasant writing experience and I also believe that the ink drying technology is more than capable for my writing needs. I definitely recommend this product to my peers and all others who want a good writing experience with a capable writing utensil. Just don't expect it to make your breakfast lunch or dinner and you'll be fine. This product accomplishes its job more than enough times and I fully recommend it for all your writing needs.

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.] Design of the pen was as expected. Nothing fancy. The pen writes well. Ink quality was good. I did not notice any smudges when writing and I am a left handed writer. The ink came out smooth without any issues.

Smooth writing
on November 23, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel Pen in Blue Ink Bold 1.0 mm size is just what I need for my everyday writing. The pen is easy to handle due to the size the retractable mechanism and also the comfortable grip. The ink flow was smooth without any skipping bleeding or smudging. The bold size was useful even when a smaller tip point was needed. The Staples ProGel pen is nice and I look forward to trying more colors.

Great pen that glides across the paper
on November 20, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great pens especially if you prefer gel pens. The pen glides across the paper and the ink flow is perfectly even. It also has a comfort grip so my fingers don't get uncomfortable when writing long journal entries. As I have gotten older my hands have begun to shake a bit. Having a pen that is really smooth with a well-controlled ink flow really helps to keep my writing looking neat and to avoid ink deposits where my hand shook when writing. Happy writing!

Staples ProGel Pen
on November 20, 2024
Posted by: S.P.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples ProGel pen is my new favorite pen because it improves my handwriting. The bold ink flows smoothly and dries very fast. Goodbye smudges! The triangular grin is extraordinarily comfortable which makes it the perfect pen for a short note or a long letter.

[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!
