On brand and perfect
on March 15, 2025
Posted by: Shosey
from Las Vegas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the Staples brand pens and markers often. They are by far my favorite pens and I will be adding this one to the list of favorites. It is light which helps with my grip issues. The feel of the barrel is soft but still a smooth material not slick or glossy at all. When writing it glides across the paper doesn’t snag. Doesn’t bleed through the paper while writing notes and the ink is vibrant.

Great permanent markers
on March 14, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark permanent markers are really great! They work more like an ink pen than a marker because of the ultra fine tip which makes them perfect for marking up documents grading papers or taking notes. The ink is really incredible. It dries immediately so it doesn’t smear and I haven’t noticed it bleeding through any of the papers I’ve used it on. It does not glide across the paper as well as a ballpoint pen would but that is to be expected since it’s technically a marker! Overall these are great markers and definitely worth getting if you have a need!

Mom Approved Markers for Everyday Needs

from Tustin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a mom to a busy toddler I’m always labeling snack containers organizing toys and keeping track of important lists. The Staples Duramark Ultra-Fine Red Markers have been a lifesaver for all of that! The ink is vibrant and long-lasting making labels easy to read and the ultra-fine tip is perfect for writing neatly on small surfaces. I also love that the ink dries quickly on most materials so I don’t have to worry about smudging when I’m in a rush. With a dozen in a pack I always have extras on hand especially since my little one loves to “help” and tends to run off with them! My only complaint is that the tip wears down a bit with heavy use and on glossy surfaces the ink takes longer to dry. But overall these markers have been super useful for keeping my home organized. Definitely a great buy for busy moms like me!

Staples Duramark Ultra Fine
on March 12, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark UltraFine tip permanent marker is a great choice. I have the color red. The ink is true to color. I haven't had any instances of ink running or spreading (lines are very clean and procise) but ink definitely leaks through my current page onto the back of my page and onto the next sheet. I have used this permanent marker on various surfaces - wood metal plastic zip lock bags and glass - it has been flawless on all surfaces. I'm a stay at home mom that homeschools 3 school aged children whether grading papers or making grocery lists these markers have been handy.

Not an A plus

from Mount Kisco
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the red permanent marker with ultra fine tip box of 12. They have a bit of a retro look and feel to them like one my dad would use 30 years ago. The metal clip has not fallen off (yet) although I could see it snapping if you fidget with it. The cap stays sturdy in place and when you put it back on there is that satisfying click. The ultra fine tip is a perfect size. However the ink does not apply to paper well unless you write very slow and keep the pen meticulously perpendicular to the paper. Checking a box probably wouldn’t be impacted but even a short phrase doesn’t look right if writing casually. I received these permanent markers as part of the Stellar Review product testing program.

Red Markers for the Win

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've recently had the chance to try out the Staples Duramark Permanent Marker in red with the ultra-fine tip and I have to say I’m impressed. These markers are ideal for anyone who needs precise long-lasting marks without any hassle. The ink in these markers is excellent. It flows smoothly and doesn’t skip leaving behind consistent vibrant red marks every time. Whether you're writing on paper plastic metal or glass the ink is bold and holds up well even when exposed to light and moderate wear. It’s a permanent marker so you can trust that the markings won’t easily fade or smudge. The ultra-fine tip is a standout feature. It’s perfect for fine details making it easy to write small notes labels or create precise drawings. It’s ideal for situations where you need accuracy like labeling files writing on calendars or adding details to craft projects. The point is sharp enough for precision but still durable with minimal fraying even after extended use. The pack of a dozen is just right especially for frequent users. Having multiple markers on hand means I don’t have to worry about running out of ink quickly and I can keep one in various places (desk bag or car). Plus buying in bulk makes it more cost-effective than buying single markers. I’ve used these markers for a variety of tasks including labeling storage bins marking documents and making notes on folders. The ultra-fine tip is perfect for small spaces where a thicker marker would be too bulky. I’ve also used them for marking tools and cables and the ink has held up well even through some rough handling. Overall the Duramark Permanent Marker has proven to be reliable effective and a great value. The ink quality is excellent the ultra-fine tip provides precise control and the quantity is perfect for keeping a stock of these markers ready for all sorts of tasks. Whether you’re organizing your office or crafting these markers won’t let you down. Highly recommend!

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.
