Smooth and bright
on November 19, 2024
Posted by: V.H.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried these and I am so impressed. They are bold and they roll on the paper so smooth. I tried them on an adult coloring book and it colored beautifully. I have never seen such good pens. I give them an A+.

Comfy Grip and Smooth Writing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my new favorite red pen. The ink is bright and really pigmented so it scans and copies well. The pen is very comfortable to write with and I love the larger point for nicely flowing handwriting.

Awesome Gel Pen
on November 19, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I heard that these pens were gel pens that did not smear I was honestly skeptical. I tried it and found out how quickly the ink dries on the paper. If you are quick you might be able to smear it a tiny bit but normally use will show no issue! As a left handed writer these are super helpful since my wrist and hand will usually smear anything I write on paper. These pens are great and eliminate my problem! Along with being comfortable in my hand and super smooth on the paper these pens are now my go-to!

Take it from a picky pen person
on November 19, 2024
Posted by: J.C.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a left-handed stylophile my entire life. As a kid my desk drawer was a treasure trove of pens—hotel freebies restaurant giveaways vibrant gel pens and felt-tip markers galore. You get the picture. Fast forward to adulthood where in my profession note-taking is practically a job requirement and naturally I've found the pen: blue or black gel pens of course. Enter the ProGel Pens from Staples—a fantastic dupe for another brand I've been hoarding since grad school. These gems deliver excellent quality and to my delight they’re also easier on the wallet. Consider me officially impressed!

Great pen

from Rochester
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the way the pen writes and the color of the ink. It also dries quickly so it doesn’t smudge. The look and design are nice I like the little clip it has on it. It was comfortable to write with because it has the padded part. Overall great pen and would buy again.

Nice Red Pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel Retractable Gel pen is a great pen for everyday use. It is comfortable to write with and has a nice grip. The ink is smooth and dries quickly without smearing. I have been using the pen on a daily basis for list making at home (the red ink is especially festive this time of year for making Christmas lists) and making notes at work. Overall this pen is well constructed ink looks great on the page and writes like a dream!

High Quality Smooth Writing Pen
on November 19, 2024
Posted by: K.S.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen is by far one of the best pens I have ever used. In the past many pens like this that I’ve tried would smudge on the paper or on your hands - not so with this pen. It was very comfortable to write with on paper with a smooth action throughout - no bumps in the writing process. The grip on the pen was very comfortable creating no tension on your hand. The ink was very vibrant and consistent without any streaks and this is what I liked most about the pen. The point size on the pen was bold and I was surprised by how much I liked this since I typically use fine point pens.

Comfortable to write with
on November 19, 2024
Posted by: A.S.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a wonky pen grasp- like stay back in school bad. Most pens hurt to write with after a few minutes. I also end up with sloppy writing because my hand ends up hurting. I was so excited to try these progel pens out. They are very comfortable to use and allow for smooth transitions while you write. My hand did not get tired at all while writing out many thank you cards. I also like medium point pen since I think it makes handwriting look prettier but that’s just my personal preference. Best part is there is no smudge which happens quite often when using gel!
