    Ink not coming out.

    These are really nice pens while they work. 5 out of the 10 pens quit working after 2 months. They are still full of ink, but they no longer work.

    Save your money

    AWFULLLL doesn’t even begin to describe these! Almost every single pen feels like it’s scratching into the paper and the ink doesn’t even flow out of the pen. I’ve tried everything to get these to work properly to no avail, super bummed and annoyed because I don’t have the packaging anymore to return these.

    Disapointed

    The colors are pretty, when they work. Otherwise the pen skips and doesn’t feel like a regular ink joy pen. Disappointed is an understatement. I bought these about 2 1/2 weeks ago, probably half of them don’t work anymore.

    Bad quality

    They die before you run out of ink and half of them don’t work in the pack. I’ve gotten them a few times and none of the packs were good.

    Bright, opaque, and fast-drying

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These gel pens work great! The colors are rich, creamy, and opaque. The ink dries fast enough that it doesn’t smear even though I’m left handed. They’re good quality.

    Some colors are a hit some are a miss

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know how long these are going to last it took me a minute to get them to write when I took them out of the package. They're comfortable to write with and you get a lot in the pack but there's a couple colors that you can't see when you write with them.
    1 reply from Papermate® Consumer Care team - 6 months ago
    Hello. Thank you for your honest feedback! We're glad to hear the pens are comfortable to use and that you appreciate the variety in the pack. Some gel pens may need a quick scribble to get started, and lighter colors like yellow can be harder to see depending on the paper. To enhance the performance of the pens, we suggest avoiding surfaces that are shiny, smooth, or coated. Before usage, consider warming up the pen by testing it on scratch paper. If the pen fails to start promptly, gently tapping it on the paper may facilitate ink flow. If these steps do not help, please don't hesitate to let us know. Kindly reach out to us via our "Contact Us" Form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! PaperMate® Consumer Care.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] White I love the Array of colors in this package, the ink is not consistent. It takes some effort to get the pen going. I unfortunately would not but it again because of this.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Some of the colors wrote so smoothly and beautifully! However, some of them seemed like the ball got stuck and the ink wouldn’t flow freely. The colors are beautiful though.

    Not the smooth experience I expected

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a self-proclaimed pen enthusiast, I was thrilled to receive the Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens in this Influenster campaign. I'm a big fan of the InkJoy line and have always appreciated their smooth writing experience. However, this particular set left me incredibly disappointed. Right out of the package, I noticed the pens barely wrote. I had to scribble and "scratch" on paper for what felt like an eternity just to get the ink flowing. Even after this lengthy priming process, the pens still didn't deliver the smooth, glide-like writing I've come to expect from InkJoy. Instead, they felt scratchy and inconsistent. I'm truly hoping I just received a defective pack because the InkJoy pens I've used in the past have been fantastic. It's disheartening to experience such a stark difference in quality. I'm not sure if this is a widespread issue or just a fluke, but I'm definitely hesitant to purchase this particular set again.

    Pens with a flair!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils can with a variety of colors. I loved the variety of colors. When first using the pens the ink didn’t have a flow but once the pen was used it flowed. The pens had a thicker bottom so if you have smaller hands it might not be as comfortable write with. Overall, I enjoy using the pens and will definitely seek out this brand again.😊

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are thick! They're easy to hold, but a little heavy. Medium point makes a pretty thick line. I used several to grade papers and found the rollerballs skip leaving a dotted line rather than a smooth line.
