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!

These are terrible pens. They write good but run out of ink very quickly.
1 reply from targetcom team - 4 months ago
Hello, We’re sorry to hear that your Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens are running out of ink more quickly than expected, even though they write well. We understand how frustrating that can be. Gel pens tend to use more ink to deliver a smooth, bold writing experience, but they should still provide a reasonable lifespan. To help get the most out of your pens, here are a few tips: 1. Store the pens horizontally to help maintain consistent ink flow. 2. Retract the pen when not in use to prevent ink from drying at the tip. 3. Use light to moderate pressure while writing, as pressing too hard can use more ink. 4. Avoid leaving the pen exposed to heat, which can affect ink performance. We appreciate you sharing your feedback and will pass your comments along to our proper team for review. If there is anything else we can assist with, please reach out through the "Contact Us" form on our official website. Our team is available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time. Thank you, and please stay safe! Paper Mate Consumer Care

Great, colorful pens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Paper, mate, ink, joy, gel, pens, and the tropical vacation colors add fun and personality to your writing, journaling, notes, or projects. The colors are amazingly bright and very cheerful. The pins are very smooth and the ink dries quickly, which keeps it from smudging. These are a medium point pen so they don’t give off fine lines.

Good value
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the colors and ink quality. The pens write easily, good value, and comfortable to hold when writing for a while or length of time. Good value
