Paper Mate InkJoy 100ST Ballpoint Pens, Medium Point (1.0mm), Assorted, 18 Count

Nice colorful variety and we got them at a great price. The ink flows nicely and the colors are saturated and vibrant. Great set.

Love the colors and writes smoothly good quality and comfortable to write with. Will buy again

I'm happy that I bought these pens there's so many colors and the price was reasonable

These are the best ones for work and I got them when they were on sale. Great quality, smooth writing.

The colors are lovely and dark enough even in the lighter colors. Nice glide too.

Pros: 1. Beautiful Vibrant Colors – The pens come in a wide variety of colors, and they really pop on paper. Whether you’re taking notes, journaling, or decorating, the colors stand out and make writing look more fun and creative. 2. Smooth Writing Experience – The ballpoint tip glides nicely across the paper without much scratching. Writing feels effortless, which is great for longer use. 3. Good Ink Flow & Thickness – The thickness of the lines is bold enough to be easily visible, which makes it ideal for headings, doodles, or adding emphasis to your notes. 4. Affordable & Practical – Compared to some high-end pen brands, these are budget-friendly while still offering a decent writing experience. 5. Works Better on Matte Paper – On matte or textured paper, the ink sets faster. Smudging is minimal, so the writing looks neat and clean. ⸻ Cons: 1. Smudges Easily on Glossy Paper – The biggest drawback is how the ink reacts on glossy or smooth paper. It doesn’t dry quickly, so smudging is a big issue if you touch it right away. 2. Slow Drying Time – Even on matte paper, the ink takes longer to dry compared to regular ballpoint pens. This can be frustrating if you’re writing quickly or flipping pages. 3. Not Ideal for Left-Handed Writers – Because of the slow drying time, left-handed users might struggle with constant smearing as their hand moves across the page. 4. Ink Consistency Can Vary – Sometimes the ink flow is heavier on smooth surfaces, which can cause little blobs or uneven strokes. 5. Limited to Certain Surfaces – If you mostly use glossy notebooks, photo paper, or planner inserts with smooth coating, these pens may not be the best choice. ⸻ ✅ Final Verdict: If you’re someone who loves vibrant colors, bold thickness, and smooth writing on matte or regular paper, these pens are a great option. But if you mainly use glossy or coated paper, the smudging and slow drying time can be a dealbreaker. They’re best for creative projects, journaling, and note-taking on standard paper.

Beautiful array of colors for all writers. Smooth writing tip, no ink smudges, and bold colors. I absolutely LOVE the 3-sided grip for the pen's. Easy to grip and anti fatigue for the fingers.

Love the colors and the ink flow. Pens write smoothly, everytime.

Me gustó mucho al calidad de las plumas.

学生時代にアメリカで使ってとメーカーのペン。懐かしくて買ったけど、さすがアメリカ製。クオリティが安定していなくて、書けない物も入ってました。あと、日本語には日本製が合ってるなと感じました。

They are perfect! The colors are beautiful, they don't smudge and are easy to write with. For that quality, the price is very honest. They last a long time compared to other pens I previously used.

Siempre son mis plumas de color favoritas, perfectas para zurdos

Write smooth and clear! Have had them for a few months and do not seem to dry out even when using outdoors
