Advantages: Light, fun colours, long-lasting.

Disadvantages: None.

These pens are fantastic. They come in a range of colours - everything from standard practical black, blue and red, to fun and funky purple, green, sky blue and orange. The colour range is great, and using the more unusual colours is very useful for students using them to identify specific sections in revision notes etc, however be warned that some of the lighter colours (orange etc) can be a little difficult to reading as plain text. These are better used for underlining or for more fun / crafty sort of activities.

The pens are light, thinner than your average fineliner when held in the hand, and are hexagonally shaped rather than round, making them very easy to grip and write with. They have a fine felt tip like a fineliner but the tip is quite a bit shorter, meaning that you don't have the same problems as with a fineliner where the nib gets pushed back into the pen itself.

The pens seem to last really well without either becoming blunt / the nib spreading, and without drying out. All in all they are very useful, come in a great range of both practical and fun colours, and are very reasonably priced. A great addition to the office or study bag!

Summary: Recommended.
