A must have

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These chisel tip permanent workers are very versatile in use. You can use them on the wider side for bold thick markings or at the end for finer thinner markings. I used them to write on boxes for storage the deep bold black lettering is easily visible on the blue boxes to make organizing the garage easy. The thinner side of the marker I was able to use to underline letters and draw shapes with my daughter. The Ink did not bleed through the piece of paper when drawing however it does if you leave the marker in one spot for a period of time. I find and that this is fairly common with most markers though. for fun I was able to use these markers as a sort of calligraphy depending on how you hold the markers and the lettering goes from fat to thin as you draw. It’s also kind of a fun way to use them while teaching your kids about thin lines thick lines and the difference between them. I left the cap off of one of the markers for the day just to see how quickly the markers dried out. When I used the marker again in the ink was just as dark and normal as it was when I first opened the marker. I liked that about the markers as well as as the ability to use them not only for my personal stuff work stuff household stuff and as a teaching tool. I would recommend these markers to others as a staple in their office supply needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tank markers live up to their name. They’re durable dark and sturdy. The chisel tip is perfect for bolded font or for italic cursive. They are easy to use and easy to stored. I make a lot of boards and signs and these are very nice and helpful. The dark color makes for the perfect writing companion and catches attention easily. It doesn’t have a strong odor smell like most markers. They are easy to store and very easy to open. The lids are not super tight to pull off. The ink is nice and bold. I’m excited to how well my garage sale signs will turn out. Perfect for spring for me to use!

Great for work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very reliable markers! I use a LOT of markers like this for work for organizational purposes and these were great for labeling on a variety of surfaces for our recent event. It's great to have the chisel tip because you get the option of writing with the thin tip or more boldly with the marker edge. We mainly used these for writing on cardboard boxes and blue tape and they withstood a lot of use. Sometimes markers start losing their boldness especially on cardboard but these were great. I also love having a bulk pack because office supplies like these tend to disappear with various staff members using markers and not returning them to their home. It was definitely helpful to have a bunch of extra markers at each of the main stations for our event for last minute labeling or signage!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples permanent markers that I tried have worked great for me. The fine tip is truly fine making it easy to write small and legible. The package came with 36 so they will last me a long time.

Best Markers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark Tank Marker has quickly earned a permanent place in my home and workspace! As a mom of three and someone who’s constantly labeling bins organizing school supplies and tackling craft projects I rely on markers that are not only bold and long-lasting but also easy to use. These chisel-tip markers absolutely deliver—and then some! From the first time I picked one up I could tell the design was thoughtfully done. The body is slimmer than many traditional tank-style markers making it incredibly comfortable to write with—no bulky grip or hand strain even when I’m labeling 20+ storage bins during a weekend organizing spree. The chisel tip is firm and precise allowing me to switch seamlessly between broad strokes and fine lines. Whether I’m writing names on clothing tags creating folder labels or designing craft signage the result is always crisp dark and professional-looking. What impressed me the most though is the durability. I’ve been using the same marker consistently for weeks and the ink is still as bold and saturated as day one. No drying out no fading and no need to “revive” the tip like I’ve had to do with other brands. It just works—beautifully and reliably. I’ve tried all the big-name brands and plenty of generic versions over the years but nothing compares to the quality and consistency of these Staples Duramark markers. They’ve exceeded every expectation—and the fact that this set includes 36 means I’m stocked for months to come (and I’ve already tucked extras into the car the kitchen drawer and my craft cabinet!). If you’re looking for markers that can keep up with your busy life—whether that’s labeling everything in sight or diving into creative projects—these are the ones. I’m seriously impressed with their performance and staying power. I want to thank the Stellar Product Testing Panel for giving me the opportunity to try this product!

Quality marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the Duramark Tank permanent markers worked clearly on different surfaces with bold and solid ink. The chisel tip made it easy to switch between narrow and wide fonts. I found it worked really well on cardboard boxes paper and plastic bags. It took a minute for the ink to dry on plastic surfaces and could smear if touched too early but once dried the ink stayed in place and was vibrant. Overall a great permanent marker for home school or office use.

Bold markers with no strong smell

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved using these markers in my recent move. I used them to label all of my moving boxes. Having a multi pack meant that I never was stuck looking for a marker. The color is bold and easy to read. I love the firmness of the chisel tip. It kept it's shape and doesn't wear down easily. My favorite thing about these is there is no strong odor that you get in other markers!
