ParKoo Retractable Erasable Gel Pens Clicker 0.5 mm, Extra Fine Point, 8 Black/1 Blue/1 Red Ink, 10-Pack

I tried these on a whim to try and save money knowing I might get disappointed because I prefer the name brand in these pens. I was very shocked at the look, quality, and was what I needed. I'm older now and make more mistakes as I'm writing greeting cards etc., so it's a pleasure to be able to use a pen that uses erasable ink. Love, love, love these pens. I will definitely buy again. Don't worry about buying these because they're great.

I use erasable pens a lot. These work well and are a good value for the price. I buy Frixion refills in .5 and use in these pens when the ink is used up. The ink doesnt last as long as the Frixion, but for the price it's still reasonable. Mechanically seem to well made enough to survive multiple refills without malfunctions.

When I got them the black one doesn't work. They seemed to dry up fast. I love the color and how they write.

The Parkoo thermochromic ink 0.5 mm color pens are vastly superior to the frixion pens:1. Though no one to my knowledge has commented on it, they appear to have solved the ink-running-out issue by putting a gel above the ink. I am seeing much longer ink lifetimes compared to frixion- will update once they finally run out of ink.2. Colors are in my opinion extremely vibrant compared to frixion. Pink is brilliant. Do other users agree??3. Ink volume is visible through the pen at least for the first part. Frixion is not visible. A nice detail.4. Ink volume left is fully visible if you take the body of the pen out; frixions are more opaque, hard to tell whats left.5. I find the wide design and soft grip more comfortable than frixion pens6. 0.5 mm pens are very fine; maybe <0.5 mm. That's a big deal for me when grading lab reports7. Ink flow seems greater than frixion but about right- no blobs formed or irregular line diameters. Hold the pen on the paper at the end of a line and no ink accumulation occurs. Same for frixion ball pens but good to see. I would say ink flow is higher than frixion ball 0.4 mm and 0.5 mm which can be fainter as a result. Frixion 0.38 mm has major issues- so sharp it cuts into the paper and total ink volume is so low they may run out of ink in days. I find frixion 0.7 mm, which is all that is available at staples, to be too thick for my applications.7. Only minor issue is some might find that the glide when writing is a tiny bit scratchy...does anyone else notice this for the 0.5 mm pens? It is so minor it doesn't bother me but I do notice it8. Best part: being Chinese knockoffs (Xiamen, China I believe from the phone number) these are $1.11 each for a set of 9, and that's for a retractable pen. Way cheaper than frixion pens.Parkoo if you are reading this I would be happy to proofread your website and any other writing you have to make sure the translation to English is smooth.

They do what they say.However, they skip a lot when you first start writing with them. They can be difficult to write with, you have to press down to get a get a good flow, which indents your paper.The picture with the color names was the first time they were used in a few days. As you see, the light blue really took some time to get flowing. The second is in my planner where I had been writing for a few moments, still patchy.I also wish instead of two blues they gave an orange, but that's a personal preference.But, if you have never used erasable pens and want to try them out, for the price these are okay. But overall I'm not overly impressed.

I bought these pens for my daughter for her 8th birthday. For about a month she was very excited to be able to write with her “rainbow pens” and simply erase. Then the reality of the quality of these pens started to settle in, as did the disappointment.It started with the black pen. The pen started to release gobs of ink, making using the color infeasible. Smudge city, and her fingers were stained black with ink, which concerned me from a health perspective. Upon closer inspection I noticed a small wire filament poking out of the tip of the pen. The filament wiggled about and with a little jostle came out. I was hopeful it was simply an impurity from the factory that got into the ink, but no dice. The pen would now literally pour ink out of the tip when held in the upright writing position.I chalked this up to a one-off manufacturing problem, and convinced my daughter to use a dark pencil in place of the black pen.It turns out I was wrong. The light blue pen exhibited literally the same issue. Gobs of ink, blue fingers and smudges everywhere. Lo and behold, the tip had the same type of metal filament protruding, and when the filament removed, blue ink flows out when the pen is held upright.My daughter is now the not-so-proud owner of two unusable pens. I’m expecting the remainder of the pens to conk out in the same way, and for her to experience more disappointment as the result of my decision to buy this product.These issues occurred in the span of less than 3 months, which is of course, outside the return window but well within the life expectancy for a set of pens...I don’t write many reviews, but I wanted to share my experience in case it helps others.

I love the fact that they are erasable, great quality and pretty colors. Variety of ink colors and they are easy to use they really erase.

Ordered extra fine, it’s more like just fine. The black is more dark grey than black. It writes rough. I do like the color of the blue, but it also writes rough. Does erase very well. Probably will not buy again.
