Purple and blue are great, yellow isn’t.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The yellow wasn’t a good choice in pen color, but the others are bright and vivid. Great gel pens, once you got to writing with them a bit. I almost thought the purple one died, But it I just needed to scribble to get the ink flowing more.

Colorful and smooth writing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the colors of these pens. The ink flowed well. I love Inkjoy Gel ink, so I knew it would be a smooth experience. I did not like the texture or grip feeling of the pen, though. But for a value pack, it’s a fun collection.

Good pens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the pens when writing I felt like I had a good grip on them and they were really comfortable to write with for a long period of time. I did encounter an issue they would like sometimes like get stuck and stop writing. But overall they are great.

Wry pretty, but slightly difficult
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the fun colors! The dark blue one wrote smoothly and glided on the page. The other colors really struggled. They seemed to need a lot of rewriting to read. Some of them I’d scribble somewhere then rewrite the word up to 6 times before it was legible. I have a bigger set of these pens that had similar issues. If it has happened in two separate sets, it must be a more common issue. I love these as a teacher for the bright colors though!

Picky Pens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first, when I used these pens, I was not happy with the flow of ink. It would constantly skip. So I tried it using the pens on a stack of papers instead of just one sheet, and the flow of the ink was perfect. These are great pens but picky.

Love this collection.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stationary aficionado here and pens are one of my favorites items to collect. The ink flow is smooth and the tips don't skip. Very comfortable to hold and scribble with. The colors are vibrant and the ink dries instantly, so no smearing at all. Would love to see more colors added to the Tropical Collection especially a Flamingo Pink.

They dry quickly!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found these pens to be easy/smooth to write with. The pen is easy to grip and the ink dries very quickly- as a lefty, that’s very important! I like that I didn’t have to struggle with the packaging and the packaging came with instructions on moving the wax ball so there’d be no confusion for those that aren’t aware.

Smooth pens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens came in a 4 pack of 4 different colors, however, they all write with black ink. I like the texture of the outside of the pens, it feels like butter slime, & has a good grip. The ink writes so smoothly! I would definitely buy these pens, they are worth it!!
