Pretty Good Marker
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: M.W.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found these to be pretty good all-around markers for tons of everyday uses around the house. I used them to label foods write quick notes to family members and make various lists. They were comfortable to hold in my hand and for the most part wrote very clearly. Sometimes the ink came out a bit to fast and on some paper it did bleed through a bit. I'd like them to be a bit more fine but that may be more of a personal preference and less of an issue with the marker itself. Overall I'm happy to have these in my drawer at home.

Staples Duramark Ultra Fine
on March 12, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Duramark UltraFine tip permanent marker is a great choice. I have the color red. The ink is true to color. I haven't had any instances of ink running or spreading (lines are very clean and procise) but ink definitely leaks through my current page onto the back of my page and onto the next sheet. I have used this permanent marker on various surfaces - wood metal plastic zip lock bags and glass - it has been flawless on all surfaces. I'm a stay at home mom that homeschools 3 school aged children whether grading papers or making grocery lists these markers have been handy.

Smooth lines
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: L.E.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are so nice. I’ve used them on multiple different kinds of paper and the ink glides so nicely out of the pen. The ultra-fine tip allows for detailed work or small writing. I liked using it on my calendar; gave me clean quick dry lines without smudging (as a leftie this is important)! The quantity in the box is awesome and will last me a very long time. It would be cool if the box came with a variety of colors as the smoothness and fine-tip of the pen are ideal for my calendar organization! I used this pen on card stock paper and regular printer paper. I recommend checking for bleed-through if you’re going to be using this on a double-sided project. It definitely will show on the opposite side of printer paper and does show a bit on the opposite side of the card stock paper I wrote on. Overall a nice smooth quick-drying pen!

Great marker

from BAYSIDE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pen is amazing!!!! The ink that comes out is pretty thick. The pen glides smoothly. It does not get caught when writing cursive. Although it is labeled ultra fine it still comes out a bit thicker than I would like but I do think that is a matter of preference. The ink does transfer a bit to the next page but it is a marker after all. 1 box holds 12 markers which is pretty generous. I use it everyday. I use it to take notes for school write down reminders. I attached photos of what it looks like when you use it the back of the paper and the next page with some very small ink transfer.

Quite handy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Even though these are labeled markers they work great as a pen. I used them for making lists or adding things to calendars while my husband used them at his office to write things down and take notes. The ink bleeds through paper a little but it doesn’t smear or smudge like a lot of fine tip pens do. It dried instantly which was one of my concerns it being a marker and me being left handed I tend to smear things occasionally when writing but that didn’t happen when using these. The fine tip is great it makes circling things easy without covering up letters. I would recommend these markers!

Permanent markers in red
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: C.M.
from Plainview
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Staples Duramark Permanent Markers in red and I am really impressed! They mark on most surfaces with ease—paper cardboard boxes and even plastic bins without any real smudging. The red color is very visible and the markers are fade-resistant making them perfect for long-term use. I also love that they have a low odor compared to other permanent markers. The 12-pack is super convenient and the markers’ all-red design including the cap gives them a sleek look and make them easy to find in a utility drawer. I used them to label plastic bins for my kids school pictures and their names are still visible. Highly recommend these markers for anyone looking for reliable red permanent markers!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these markers! I'm not typically a fine tip lover but these write so smooth. I received a dozen which will last me years! The ink doesn't bleed and it looks great on any paper. Highly recommend!
