Marker not a pen
on March 14, 2025
Posted by: S.S.
from Stevensville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the fine tip of this permanent marker. It held up pretty well for short projects and the ink color was standard black which worked for my projects. It came in a box of 12 which is honestly probably a lifetime supply. The thing I didn’t love is this permanent marker looks just like a fine tip pen but beware it is not a pen. I used it to write a quick note on some computer paper and it bled through. I wouldn’t recommend this for projects with regular weight paper.

Just right

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a bunch of permanent markers around the house and I use them for labeling everything. From freezer meals to kids clothes tags I mark up everything and use the different point thicknesses. I like the thicker ones for the freezer bags and donation bags and then I use ultra fine pens for the kids’ clothes and water bottles. I really really really like this one for the water bottles. I use the waterproof labels and for some of the markers the writing will smudge when you put on the clear top layer. Some of the other markers I have are too fine point. This one seems to be in between the ones that have and I think it’s perfect for the water bottle labels and the clothes! This will definitely be my go-to!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These markers are great quality providing a smooth and consistent writing experience. The ink flows effortlessly leaving clear crisp lines that make my notes labels and artwork stand out. The fine point tip allows for precision and control making them perfect for detailed work or writing in small spaces. Overall these are a solid choice and come in handy for everyday tasks and creative projects.

Permanent Duramark Ultra Fine Tip Red

from Gilbert
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these permanent markers! They write so smoothly and have a great ink consistency. The color is a pretty standard red and dries very quickly without mess. I think the box will last me a very long time but I’m excited to use them in the months to come! I would recommend these to friends and will use them in the classroom to grade papers as well.

A durable daily marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These markers are very durable have vividly black ink and offer superior coverage over a large area. I like these for marking items like folders labeling clothes and toys or coloring. These do show through thinner paper although I only experienced bleed through to the next page when I colored in a square. They can also bleed a little while you are writing spreading beyond your intended boundary. The point seems to be equivalent to a 08 tip marker although the staples brand bleeds a bit more. The photo shows a 05 marker then the staples marker then the staples marker in faster handwriting then a 08 marker in faster handwriting. The left square is the staples marker and the right is a 08. I found the staples marker to have faster darker coverage with almost no stroke lines visible. However as you can see it bled through to the page underneath. Overall I wouldn't recommend these for delicate work or thin paper but for heavy duty use these are fantastic.

Ultra fine and ultra sleek
on March 14, 2025

from Knoxville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mom of 3 PTO President Cheer Coach...I always need to label something. First of all the ink quality is amazing...consistent smooth and dark but while it's labeled "ultra-fine tip" I didn't feel it was as skinny as it could have been. I however do think it's a good tip for labeling items since it's dark and thick enough to be read. For example the tip is fine enough to fit a long name on the bottom of a water bottle but not too fine that I can't read it. I have 30 of them and keep them in various places- notebooks folders the kitchen- and even hand them out to friends. I'm very happy with this product!

Excellent precision and quality

from Menifee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Duramark Permanent Markers have an ultra- fine tip and are perfect for detailed writing and drawing. The black ink is bold and clear. I love that they’re non-toxic so they’re safe for all kinds of projects. The only downside is that they tend to bleed through thin paper. Otherwise I highly recommend them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband used these markers for construction work and they held up very well. The red is vibrant and consistent. Fire truck red. Exactly what you need it to be. Works great.
