Pens

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pens. Gel pens are my favorite type of pens. I was particularly impressed with grip on this pen. I find that most pen grips are not comfortable. Also the Fine Point 0.7mm was great because it did not smear the page. A lot of gel pens I find smear as I write however the Staples ProGel pen did not smear. I would definitely recommend this pen.

Go to Pen for Editing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Writes very smoothly. There is no interruption in ink flow so it’s become my go-to pen when editing documents. The ink glides easily on the paper and there isn’t any excess when starting or ending use. I typically prefer finer points but this pen writes so seamlessly I don’t mind the thicker point. The grip is comfortable and the clicking sound is so satisfying every time.

Great pen
on June 15, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m very picky with my pens. I want them to feel a certain way when I write with them. This pen didn’t quite give me the feeling I wanted but it was close. I did enjoy the bold point I love when a pen has a thick stroke. The ergonomic strip was nice felt comfortable. Definitely a great pen!

Bold Pen for the win

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens did not disappoint! As a person that's super picky about having favorite pens- I have to say these really performed well even with daily frequent use. The bold gel worked seamlessly through full work days and honestly to my surprise no smudging! (I'm a lefty so smudges are usually inevitable for me). Overall I really like the fit of the grip in hand and the fact that the ink glides so smoothly on different types of paper: notebook and thicker print paper alike it handled various types without a hiccup. I highly recommend giving these Staples ProGel pens a try. It's a bonus that they're retractable and make them easier to keep up with!

Not quite worth the hype

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a teacher I’m very particular about my pens because I use them constantly throughout the day for grading planning and taking notes. Unfortunately I was not impressed with these pens. The ink did not flow smoothly and the fine point was too sharp for regular use. When writing at a normal speed on standard notebook paper the tip often caught on the page and sometimes even tore through it. This made the pens difficult to use in a fast-paced classroom environment. I did find the ergonomic grip comfortable and the pens were easy to hold for extended periods of time. However the overall writing experience was not enjoyable and the issues with ink flow and paper tearing outweighed the benefits. I would not recommend these pens for professional or high-volume use especially if you rely on smooth consistent writing throughout the day.

Good Pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the pen overall. It writes smoothly and felt comfortable in my hand. The blue ink is rich and moves evenly through the pen without any bare patches. It isn’t necessary to scribble first to get the ink going you can just start writing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am loving my Staples progel retractable gel pen! The bold point is perfect making my handwriting clear and neat. These pens are super comfortable to write with They have been great for note taking When I am writing for a whole class sometimes my hands can get sore but not with these pens! Although there are multiple things I like about these pens the bold point is definitely my favorite I love the way my handwriting looks when I write with these pens!
