These are really nice gel pens. They write very smoothly with clean, consistent lines and I haven’t had any issues with blotting or excess ink. They also have a comfortable feel in the hand, which makes them nice to use for longer periods. I got them for free through my monthly Target 360 benefit, but after using them I’d definitely consider buying them myself.

Amazing! Dries instantly
These are the best gel pens ever! They dry instantly so you never have to worry about smudging. My coworkers and I have to sign a lot of documents post meetings so I always make sure to keep these on hand. My one ask is that Papermate should consider making a 3-6 inkjoy pack of different shades of purple! I would also appreciate a 3-6 pack of just blue (assorted or standard blue)

I find the hold of these pens to be slippery and very uncomfortable. I really love my red Paper Mate gel pen 0.7 from a few years ago, so I thought these black ones would be the same, but it appears to be a new design, and I am really disappointed!

Smooth glide ✍️
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would give the pens a solid 3.5 rating. While I appreciated how easy they were to write with and the smooth glide, I wished some of the colors were more pigmented. Overall, they’re still really good pens!
