Solid, good pens. I liked the colors they came in. They write nicely. Ink very saturating.

I'm a huge nerd when it comes to writing utensils! This pen is smooth, not too heavy, and fancy!

Pilot has always been my favorite brand for writing pens, but these are very good. The flow of ink is steady, so no retracing letters! The variety of colors makes them very versatile. They sit comfortably in the hand-- well sized. I've had them for several months and none have dried up! Just a really great pen!

Always wanted to have a good mess free fountain pen, and this product is just that. Gives a great writing experience same as you are writing with an actual fountain pen but without all the hassle, the tip never dries out no matter after how long I use it, the ink flow is perfect and very smooth to write and looks amazing on paper.

For about the price of nice ink cartridges these pens provide the entire pen.The ink is bright. The line and colors are sharp and attractive. They come with a lot of ink and seal well without drying out. They remove the mess from fountain pens.They write smoothly, and are easy for a first time fountain pen user.

Bright beautiful colors! The ink came out immediately upon taking the cap off with no hesitation which never happens with fountain pens. Super pleasantly surprised!!

I have enjoyed using these. They write well, the colors are good, and they don't feel as cheap as they actually were. I just feel terrible throwing them away. If you want many colors without buying many inks, these are great.

These are so fun to write with!!! Such a smooth flow to them! It makes me want to write more, so I'm trying to re-learn cursive.They all arrived intact, the colors are beautiful, and the flow is lovely! Of course, you have to hold them a certain way, because it's a fountain pen, but once you get the hang of it, they're quite lovely!If your paper is super thin, they will bleed through if you hold the pen on the paper, but I've only got one notepad where that happened, the rest of my note pads and note books have been fine.

These write amazingly smooth for the price. The pens hold a decent amount of ink as well. Technically, they are disposable but you can refill them with a little bit of effort either by removing the nib and the housing or using a pvc tubing. The caps fit really well and they won't easily dry out as long as you close the caps.

Diese Einweg-Füller von Pilot schreiben wunderbar weich. Die Stärle der Feder liegt zwischen f und m, denke ich. Die Farbvielfalt ist wunderbar und der Preis dazu ebenfalls großartig.

I bought this set after buying a single pen to try them out and they have replaced my Pilot G2 as my favorite pen. They write very smoothly, and the ink seems to last quite a long time, though it will depend on how fast you write as with a fountain pen a slower speed will use much more ink. The turquoise, pink, green, and red will dry/absorb faster than the black, blue, and purple, so they might be better for your informal writings. They are also very leak resistant, I won't say leak proof even though when stored vertically I've never had one leak, which is often a con for fountain pens.The only cons I can think of is that they are a tad shorter than a regular ball point pen, and they have a medium tip (Pilot says they make these in Fine point as well but I can't find them).Will these be as "good" as an expensive brand name fountain pen? That's like asking if the cheap black barrel multipack mechanical pencils will be as "good" as a high quality drafting mechanical pencil. Both will do the job, but where the expensive high quality options are for specialized tasks and for professional applications where a crisp top of the line finish is needed, these pens are for people who like the feel of a fountain pen, but will be using them for informal tasks such as jotting down notes, writing checks (which fountain pens are exceptional at, especially India Black which Pilot also makes and is listed on Amazon, because the ink embeds itself deep into the fibers and resists washing by thieves), doing homework, or other such tasks. Oh, and don't forget, since they are so inexpensive (the black ink versions are sold by the dozen here on Amazon for the same price you would pay for a ball point) if they do get lost, stolen (by a coworker), or broken, you're not out a lot of money.Pilot also makes a cartridge based refillable fountain pen as well which is a higher quality metal barrel and even a replaceable nib, but I would start off with one of these and work your way up.
