[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are vibrant colors that don’t stay behind when erased like some of the other brands.

HORRIBLE!!!!!!

Posted by: Peepee Poopoo
I recently purchased a set of Tru Red whiteboard markers and unfortunately my experience has not been positive. While I was initially attracted to the vibrant colors and the promise of easy writing on my whiteboard the performance of these markers has been disappointing. Firstly the ink tends to dry out quickly even when the caps are securely placed back on after use. I've found myself constantly needing to shake the markers to get adequate ink flow which is frustrating during presentations or brainstorming sessions. Moreover the markers often leave streaks and smudges rather than a clean line making it difficult to read especially from a distance. Additionally the erasure process is not as seamless as advertised. Often I have to scrub the surface with a cloth to completely remove the marks and some colors stain the whiteboard resulting in ghosting. This defeats the purpose of having a whiteboard in the first place as I need a clean slate to work with each time. Overall I had high hopes for Tru Red whiteboard markers but their performance has fallen short. I would recommend exploring other brands.

The large case diameter and the smooth glide of the tip across a whiteboard make these markers an ideal tool for a presenter who likes to conduct a class at a rapid rate

Do not buy these. They do not erase-- you will have to scrub for 20 minutes to get it off. Then it will smear everywhere and you will have a mess. Just spend the extra couple of bucks for EXPO you will thank me later.

Only get these if you want pastel markers. The black markers are properly saturated but all the other ones are nowhere near the colors they should be.
