Staples Duramark Tank Markers Review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Duramark Tank Markers with chisel tip are a really great option for all sorts of applications from art creations to lettering. I was very pleased overall with these markers. The sharp chisel tip offers great versatility with a wide range of line weights from very fine to very broad with crisp edges and minimal bleed. Each marker also has a large tank of bold black ink that provides plenty of longevity. I like the fact that there is such a variety of line thickness options with just one marker thanks to the chisel tip.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My overall impression of these markers is that they are high quality and easy to use. The ink is solid and does not streak. There is not an extreme oppressive odor like some permanent markers. Personally their stroke thickness is just a little wide for what I prefer. The chisel tip works great but I’d prefer it to be a little more pointed so the accuracy and thickness is more diverse in the same marker. I used these markers to address large document envelopes. I had to redo it twice to get the precise angle right on the marker to where it wrote legibly. I like the ink quality to most about these markers and the fact that they do not smell pungent.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a teacher I’ve used countless markers over the years but these chisel tip markers truly stand out! They write beautifully and boldly making my handwriting clear and easy to read. My students will definitely benefit from how visible and neat my writing is with these. I even used them recently to help my daughters make cards for a birthday. I was so impressed by how comfortable they were to use and how smoothly they wrote. I didn’t have any marker ink on my hands while creating which has happened with other markers in the past. They are going to be a staple in my classroom and home from now on!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark permanent markers are excellent quality. The ink is consistent and does not smudge or bleed. I really love the design of the pen’s tip which is fine enough to write like a ballpoint pen but also provides the option of writing a thicker font just by changing the angle of the pen’s tip. I have used these markers at home for labeling my daughter’s moving boxes and at my office for labeling file folders. We also plan to use them for labeling camping gear for our Boy Scout troop for the upcoming summer camp trip. The quantity of markers in this pack is perfect for keeping markers just about anywhere we need them around the house the garage or my office.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work in a kitchen and sharpies are so so important for labeling. These staples brand disappeared insanely fast when I brought them in. Everyone wanted them. They aren’t smearing. They’re lasting. They aren’t drying out in kitchen heat.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These fine tip markers are great for writing notes! The fine tips make penmanship easy and the marker quality let's it be seen where I'm writing without smudging off. If you are in need of a writing marker like this I highly recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These work very well on multiple items. I used them on paper printed corrugated plastic signs and on tags inside of clothing. They do not bleed with the exception of minimal feathering on clothing tags. The ink is durable and lasted much longer outside than the ultra fine version of another name brand permanent marker. I donated the rest of the box to a local school who also had satisfactory results using them on paper poster board and various labels.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These permanent markers work great and just as intended. They worked on multiple materials and appeared dark - didn’t fade. I’m not sure how we’re going to make it through all of these markers since we’re still using the same one 3 months in. I am hopeful they will retain their ink as opposed to drying out as we work through the box.
