Nice Fine Tipped Marker
on March 18, 2025

from Canyon Country
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve never used a marker with such a fine tip. It looks nice but it does bleed a little because it is still a marker. It’s a nice dark shade of black. I would definitely share these with my family and friends. Also it has a strong permanent marker smell.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these markers! Used them to write a love note to my husband on our anniversary. The tip wasn’t too thick. Just thin enough! Color and ink was great!

Great Marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoy using these markers. They write smoother than other markers which I am a fan of. They don’t bleed with normal pressure. I love the ultra fine tip for smooth and clear writing. Having a dozen of them allows me to keep them in our office school room and any other place we regularly need something to write with.

Great Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These permanent markers work great! I used them for a variety of tasks including gift tags labeling children’s items for school arts and crafts labels for file folders and other daily writing. I use some of them in my home some at work in a school and I keep one in my purse. My husband is also planning on using them for his drawings. The ink dries quickly and stays in place. So far they have all worked great and lasted well. I think the box of 36 will last us for quite some time! I will definitely buy this brand again when we need more.

Permanent Marker that doubles as a pen
on March 17, 2025
Posted by: M.G.
from Brooklyn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think of permanent markers and I think of the bulky thick point markers that you can only use for signs. This Staples permanent marker has an ultra fine tip that I even use this as a pen for work or if I need to write something down. Unlike other permanent markers this has no odor … none at all! I would 100% order this again once my 12 pack is gone. It’s going strong for now - the ink quality is great I don’t need to press down hard at all. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for an alternative permanent marker that is not bulky and can double as a pen!

Great for Precision but Dries Out Quickly
on March 17, 2025
Posted by: Stephanie
from Vancouver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These markers are super precise and perfect for detailed writing labeling and small projects. The ultra-fine tip glides smoothly on paper plastic and even glossy surfaces without smudging. The red ink is bold and vibrant making it easy to read. My only issue is that they seem to dry out a little faster than expected especially if left uncapped for even a short time. Otherwise they’re a solid choice for anyone needing sharp clean lines with permanent ink.

Great Fine Tip

from Harbor City
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Staples Duramark Permanent Markers are solid. The ink quality is perfect! It's dark smooth and doesn’t smear easily which is exactly what I needed. The ultra-fine tip is actually ultra-fine not one of those that claim to be but end up too thick. It writes really clean and precise. The pack of 36 is a great deal so I don’t have to worry about running out anytime soon. I’ve been using them for labeling writing notes and they hold up well. Definitely worth it if you need a lot of reliable fine-tip markers.

Sleek Great Fine Tip Writes Well
on March 17, 2025
Posted by: M.T.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My initial thought was that the permanent markers have a very sleek look and come in a nice clean package. I like that it is a cardboard box and there is no unnecessary packaging. All the markers fit well inside the box. The permanent markers themselves have a very smooth feel and have a nice weight to them not too light and not too heavy. I also like that they have a clip to attach to paper a pocket etc. The cap clicks on securely and I never felt like the cap would come off at the wrong time. I like that the whole marker is blue because you know what color it is no matter if the top or bottom is pointing up. While using the markers I never felt like the marker was running low on ink. One box would last someone quite awhile if they are the only one using them. As a mother of three children I feel like I'm always needing to write names on folders water bottles backpacks etc. and these permanent markers definitely got the job done well. When writing the ink was very smooth and the fine tip gave a thin line. Once the ink dried the ink never speared or transfered to other surfaces. The marker tip stayed fine and did not break down like some brands I've tried in the past. My only complaint with the permanent markers is that when using on paper they tend to splatter ink a little causing almost a dusty look at some edges. The slight splatter is not enough to really notice if you're not looking close however I could see it causing problems it you were trying to be very exact with your lines. When writing on other surfaces I didn't notice any extra ink splatter. A very minor complaint and the only complaint I have with the permanent markers overall.
