Fantastic Gel Pen
on November 21, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel Retractable Gel Pen is a great pen. I am very particular about the pens I use and I would add this to the very short list of pens I buy again and again. It writes very smoothly with a steady flow of ink. Another major plus for me as I am left-handed is that the ink doesn't smear so my writing looks much clearer.

Fantastic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens work perfectly and the ink is easy to read as well. Staples ProGel Pens (bold 1.0 mm blue) offer smooth writing bold ink saturation quick drying ink to eliminate smudging/smearing and excellent readability for writing. I think the ergo grip is comfortable the ink really is dependably smear/smudge proof (I ran a finger directly over my writing using my free hand to see if it would smudge and there was nothing). I like these pens and would definitely recommend trying them.

Great for journaling

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love to journal. I love to take notes. I’m a frequent pen user at work and home. These pens are amazing! They write so smooth they don’t smear (I even tried swiping with my finger immediately after writing and no smudge!) or leak. I will use these every day until they run out of ink!

Excellent gel pen
on November 21, 2024
Posted by: JackieM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gel pen is one of my new favorites. I work in an office where I do a lot of writing and the pen’s firm 3-sided textured grip makes using it not only more comfortable it also makes it easier to write for longer periods of time. The pen glides and propels me smoothly across the page no matter how much pressure I write with (I tend to be heavy-handed). I noticed the ink may smudge immediately after writing but will be perfectly dry after 1-2 seconds which is much faster than I’ve experienced with other gel pens. And the spring provides a sturdy satisfying “click”. The grip and ease of writing which I attribute to the quality of ink and overall design makes this a very enjoyable and effective writing instrument.

These are the perfect ink pens

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with these ProGel Ink Pens from Staples. They literally glide across the paper and make my handwriting look so fancy and clean. Whenever I am stuck using another pen I cringe now. There is just something about these. The grip for my fingers feels like a high end pen that you spend a fortune on. The pens each have a wax drop plug on the tip to prevent them from drying out before you get to use them. As soon as I take the plug off the pens write flawlessly and there is no need to scribble to get them to produce ink. It is also worth noting that the gel ink is quick drying and has absolutely zero smudge to it. I’m hooked on these and will use them in my office from not on.

Fluid and comfort in the Staples Gel pen
on November 20, 2024

from Harlingen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Gel pen with its vibrant red ink has truly brought my writing to have emphasis and clarity. Whether I'm jotting down a simple grocery list or noting important calendar events or my kids expressing their creativity. The pen glides effortlessly across the page preserving a remarkable smoothness that enhances the clarity of my letters and their art work. While the Staples Gel pen may not help my penmanship this pen ensures that my notes stand out beautifully even when I highlight over them. The ink remains bold and precise without any smudging allowing every word to retain its sharpness and definition. The pen glides smoothly across the paper making writing a comfortable experience. I would certainly buy the varieties that Staples Gel pens offer and recommend them to my family and friends. Try Staples Gel pens and you won't be disappointed.

Smooth writing with no smudging
on November 20, 2024
Posted by: A.L.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples ProGel pen is a sleek design with a clear barrel so you can see the ink level. The pen is retractable pen and very comfortable to write with its rubberized grip. The ink glides on the paper which I absolutely love! I most appreciate the gel ink dries nearly instantly so it doesn’t smudge. This pen is a 10!

Comfortable Pen
on November 20, 2024
Posted by: P.W.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I quite liked the comfortability of this pen and it worked well. I personally prefer a thinner ballpoint but the packaging is clear that it is a bold write. I also appreciated that it works when writing with either hand which is rare!
