Love these pens
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: R.H.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really satisfied with the Staples ProGel Pens. The rubber grip makes them comfortable to hold even for long periods of time. The medium tip makes writing precise and ultra crisp lines. The black gel ink is the perfect color and saturation on all papers used making writing smooth and professional looking. The ink is even and not to wet so drying time is quick without any smudging. A once click retractable design eliminates the need for a cap.This is a type of pen I will reach for every time feeling both comfortable and preferred writing style. This type of gel pen making the experience of writing professional and pleasing to the eye.The basic outer casing is also my pen style of choice for work and home.

Very Impressive Quality Pens
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: Kayla P
from Rushville
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These gel pens are amazing! I kind of have an addiction to pens and have only 2 styles that I will use for writing. If I use a pen to write something & I feel like my handwriting looks bad I will re-write it with a different pen so I’m very picky and selective with what pens I’ll use! I tried these pens out & was completely shocked at how smoothly they write. My handwriting looked better than I expected the ink dries so quickly so no smearing when moving your hand on the paper. The gripper on the pen made it SO comfortable to hold and the ridges on the gripper make the pen sit perfectly in between your fingers while writing. The ink makes the perfect sized writing not too thin not too thick. I’m obsessed with these pens now & am most definitely going to get me some more in black ink as well!!! I’m replacing the 2 only styles of pens that I’ve been using with these! Haven’t ever used a more comfortable pen that I actually liked my handwriting with before! If you’re a pen addict like me & always looking for the perfect pen for you to write with THESE ARE A MUST TRY! I promise you WILL NOT be disappointed! L

High quality and Quick drying
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: W.W.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am forever losing my favorite pens or they get stolen by friends or family members so I tend to not buy high quality pens since they don’t last. I was happy to share these with the family! The ink flowed smoothly and dried so quickly. My left-handed child commented they didn’t smear as he wrote. Would definitely buy these in the future!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are my new favorite. They write nice and smooth and the ink dries pretty fast. There is no smudge at all! Compared to other pens these pens makes writing easy because the pen flows much easier. I highly recommend these pens!!

Comparable to brand name gel pens
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: C.E.
from Hillsborough Township
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will preface this review by saying that I have a strong preference for gel pens and have tried many different brands over the years. I refuse to use anything else. Though I was skeptical that the Staples ProGel pens would work as well as the brand name pens I tend to reach for I am pleasantly surprised! These work just as well as their competitors and the ink glides on paper smoothly and beautifully. It dries within seconds and does not smudge! The textured ridges in the padding makes it both comfortable and easy to hold. The 0.7mm thickness is perfect for me as that is what I'm used to. I doubt I will ever buy brand name gel pens again. These are just as good.

A good option pen
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: R.G.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] .Ok my first impressions: 1.I liked the package it has a striking image it has an easy opener to take out the pencils. 2. It has a red tip protector. That is interesting. 3. When writing he has good pigmentation. 4. It was written softly on the paper. That I did not like: 1. The ink smears a little you have to wait a little before you want to run your finger over your writing. thick 2.the writing is very thick and rough.

Super smooth and does not skip
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: MamaNeedsCoffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pen was great! Straight out of the package it wrote immediately. None of the usual scribbling to get the ink to come out that I’ve had with other pens. It’s also incredibly smooth and the .07 is a nice bold line. I press fairly hard when I write and have issues with some pens skipping because of it. I had no issues with this one. My only small criticism is the grip. It has hard edges to it so you have to position the pen in a specific way in your hand. The grip area is not the same around the entire pen so you don’t have a comfortable grip from any position. Not a big issue for me and it would not keep me from purchasing the pen in the future.
