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!

Good Choice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using for some time I can say that I am pleased with the quality of these markers. I found the fine tip to be most useful when writing on different materials and paper types. I appreciate that the marker does not have a strong odor like some other brands. Would recommend!

Bleeding pens
on March 12, 2025

from Eugene
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the amount of pens that came in the pack. The fine tip is nice but the pens bled through the paper. These are not good to use on notebook paper. They bled and it made me not want to use the pens. The ink quality was ok but I didn't like the pens overall.

Became the Primary Writing Tool
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: Torres1856
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently was provided a dozen box of Staples Duramark Permanent Red Markers with Ultra Fine Tips and I must say they have exceeded my expectations. Although red isn't typically my go-to color these markers quickly became a favorite in our household. The ultra fine tip is perfect for detailed work making it easy to write clearly and precisely. Whether it's labeling items creating art or jotting down notes these markers deliver consistent vibrant color every time. The ink dries quickly preventing any smudging which is a huge plus. One minor drawback we encountered was when using the markers on painters tape. While the marker itself worked fine the combination of the red ink and the ultra fine tip made it a bit challenging to read. However this is a small issue compared to the overall performance of the markers. Overall the Staples Duramark Permanent Red Markers are a fantastic addition to our stationery collection. Their reliability and quality make them a great choice for anyone in need of permanent markers. Highly recommended!

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.

I was hoping for the retractable ones they used to make but these will do.

These are the best permanent markers I’ve used. They write so smoothly with nice dark ink. And on a side note…shipping was super fast and free! Could not be happier with this purchase.
