Smooth pens
on February 15, 2025
Posted by: chloes743_1591
One of my preferred pens to use. Dries fairly quickly. Writes smoothly. No need to press hard so it's good if you have lots to write. Depending on the paper sometimes it goes through to the other side.

Comfortable pen to take notes with
on November 12, 2024
Posted by: amys1055
I really liked this pen. The only problem I had was the ink flow sometimes it would stop working and I’d have to shake it and continue writing. Ink was dry pretty quick and the comfort of the pen felt good for long periods of note taking. The packaging was eye catching and overall value was good.

I bought two of these and forgot one in a shirt pocket, it exploded in the wash and got the wash tube black and oily. ruined the shirt and spotted other clothes. The pen writes great just don't let it go thru the wash!!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Too good to be true

I was super-excited to see that these were “no-bleed” Sharpie brand pens. I LOVE Sharpies and picked up a couple 4-packs of black and blue. The next day, at work, I was writing up a contract with a client only to find that what I thought was going to be my new favorite pen had, indeed, bled. That would be bad enough, but it ruined the sleeve of my shirt as well.
Soooooo incredibly disappointed and angry. Feels like another instance of “Over-promise and Under-deliver.”
Do better, Sharpie…do better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Writes smooth but it is NOT smear proof and runs if it gets wet :(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi, Inda. Thanks for sharing your review with Sharpie, and sorry to hear your S-Gel Pens smudge. Kindly be advised that temperature and paper quality can contribute to smearing. In regard to getting wet, paper easily absorbs liquid, and the ink spreads along with it. If you need further assistance, please call us at 1-800-346-3278. We'll be happy to help!

New sharpie s-gel pen
on October 11, 2021

I and my wife loved how these pens wrote when we first started using them, I got a 4 pack of .5mm black pens. Worked for about three weeks. Then stopped writing completely, felt like I was just scratching the paper. don't have any idea how to get it to work again. Tried drawing circle and clean dry paper, that didn't work. I hadn't used it in 4 or 5 days when this happened. Going to give another one a try and see how long it works. So I can't recommend them at this point. I'll update this review when I see if the other ones last. But I found they write smooth and I like a fine tip.

I absolutely love the Sharpe S-Gel pens. They write so smoothly, quick dry with no smearing and excellent colour pigment. I have always been a loyal Sharpie marker customer but now I have to throw out all my other pens, there's no going back to any other brand. I LOVE THE S-GEL!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
