Good option for permanent marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall these markers get the job done. Based on appearance one would have expected the tip to be more fine. Ink also gives the impression that it could easily smudge or get wiped if touched soon after writing. I did not test the water resistance so I can't speak to that.

Quickly Bleeds but Otherwise Solid

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a teacher and love that you can get a 36 pack of these Staples Duramark Permanent Markers! The pen produces a smooth and consistent line as long as you don’t pause while writing it. It has a very fine tip but seems to bleed and create circles rather quickly. While I can handle this issue my high schoolers were less than pleased by how quickly their straight line turned into a line with spots where the excess ink quickly came out for a minor pause. While I am not as precise as some of my students I had no problems using them. We were making photos for younger math students and my attached photo is what I was able to draw.

Quality marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed these markers more than I expected! They did a great job staying on very smooth metal services… I used them to label bottles of saline spray which are very smooth and have no texture and weeks later there is no smudging or fading. They also write well on porous surfaces like paper without too much drag which means their tips are all still in good shape. The all red bodies of these pens make it easy to know what I’m grabbing from the marker bucket which is also a plus! This was a fairly larger pack than I’d typically buy so I can’t say how these markers will work in a few months once I’m at the end of the pack but I’ve been very pleased with their performance so far.

Great permanent markers love the fine tip

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great permanent markers true blue color and these have a finer tip than some of the other markers out there. You can make it thicker when writing by changing the angle of how you write. I use these for assorted labeling and highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These markers are smooth and easy to write with. The ultrafine tips allow you to write in small clear letters without smudging. They come in good quantity and quality for the price. I use them on tape to label items and the writing came out clear and precise. I would recommend them highly.

from MANKATO
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These work very well. They have a great fine tip for writing as well as for use in art or coloring. It writes smoothly and brightly. No smearing or running of the color which is great. It has a smooth grip and is easy to hold for writing or drawing.

Great markers

from Lancaster
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These markers are great! My family really loved the fine tip which made them perfect to use for labeling items. We enjoy writing little notes to each other and the red ink was high quality and really popped on paper. Of course a few got misplaced around the house so I am glad that the box contained 10.

Great fine tip marker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark Ultra Fine Tip Permanent Marker in red ink is a very nice writing utensil. I use it mainly for list-making and everyday writing but I have used it for some fine marking on intricate artworks as well. It works best for me while writing more slowly and when I try marking fast the ink is not as smooth of a stream. There are more breaks in the line like the ink can’t come out as fast. It’s a good red color and the ultra fine tip is an excellent size for careful precise writing. The pen overall has a nice feel and the clip attached to the cap is sturdy and helpful for keeping it attached to my spiral notebook. I would recommend this 12 pack of markers to anyone who needs a dependable writing instrument. I will definitely be purchasing these in black as well.
