Horrible, it worked well on the first time and after that it kept skipping and it would run out. So bad!, worst pens I've used. I get so mad and frustrated using these, like how does a pen just keep skipping

The worst pens I've ever purchased
Unless your wrist bends at an odd angle that allows you to hold your pen straight up from the paper these pens won’t work at all. They’re sloppy and the ink either comes out not at all or in thick globs. Absolutely worthless and terrible design. I tried them all and they were all like this…apparently intentionally. I threw them out.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Sharpie® 4ct S-Gel Pens. We are truly sorry to hear that you experienced inconsistent ink flow and difficulty writing with all of the pens in the pack. We understand how frustrating it is when a pen does not perform as expected, especially after trying each one. For the best performance, please avoid writing on shiny, smooth, or coated surfaces. Ensure the tip seal is completely removed and warm up the pen on scratch paper before use. If the pen does not start immediately, gently tap it on the paper to help bring the ink forward. We appreciate you taking the time to provide this detailed feedback and will be sure to share your concerns with our team. If the tips above do not help, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Sharpie® Consumer Care

Good pens
These pens are great on paper but do not try to use them on any smooth surfaces because as use they will smear.

Perfect fit in my small grip
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As soon as I received these pens in the mail and put them in my hand, I knew they’d be my new favorite! The sit perfectly in my hand, the grip isn’t too big or too small, the weight is basically non existent, and I love the way it writes. I don’t like a fine tip or a “wet” look-pen. For me, this is comparable to a smaller tipped ballpoint but not small enough that the ink gets away from me or wet so that it smears. It’s absolutely perfect for me and I’ve gotten them in every color now.

Great pen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were so nice to hold and easy to use! I did find that some of them dried out a little faster, but overall the smoothness of the ink was very satisfying.

Great Barrel Colors
Barrel colors: Forest Green, Lime Green, Ocean Fog, Moonlit Midnight. Not crazy about the ink but barrel holds other refills, e.g., Pentel Energel. Grip is comfortable.

My favorite pens ever. I don’t often repurchase things, but I keep rebuying these pens because of how good they are. My only issue I’ve ever had is the clips break off a little easy… though I fiddle with them so it’s mostly a me problem.

There Are Better Options
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pens are super cute, and I love the color they are, although they still do write in black ink. The writing is a bit rough though, and these tend to skip a lot on certain paper and materials. I am more of a ball point pen person, so they were a bit to sharp for my liking. You do get a decent amount of writing out of one pen, and the pack comes with several others for a reasonable price. Not the best pens ever, but they’re okay.

This is a great non-smear pen with great ink that doesn't mess up!
The comfort of this pen has always been comfortable for me. I'm always having to write multiple notes during school and I love how it's a non-smear design. The design has a cute grip on the bottom and it doesn't come off which I love you can get these pens in different colors, such as black, red and blue. The nib isn't too big nor too small. It's just right so you don't have to worry about those bulky lines. If you're always writing, I suggest to get the gel sharpie pens.
