Pentel Matte Hop Original + Sweet Color Ballpoint Pen, 14 Colors K110-V14ST

Pens are so juicy, flow really well. No waiting for them to start writing, they write smoothly. They dry quickly. At first when I wrote on the black paper it was very underwhelming but as it dried the color popped. I love a 1.0 nib, thick but not overpowering. Enough color variety to please anyone. They’ll be my next go to pen.

You get an assortment of colors which is nice. They are easy to use and do not leak. They’re able to write on a multitude of surfaces. You just have to let it dry and it won’t smear.

I love these pens — they're very pigmented. I like them better than the Sakura gel pens . It would have been 5/5 but 2 of the pens didnt have the caps on and dried out .

These are amazing and have taken my note-taking to another level. They are incredibly vibrant and pigmented, and I love the way they write. The only issue is that if you leave them uncovered for a few minutes, they dry out, so make sure to put the caps back on when you're done using a pen. Also, if you want to layer multiple colors, it's best to wait for the ink to dry; otherwise, it will peel. It also tends to smear if you touch it before it's completely dry. However, these are just some quirks that I can overlook, as I find myself using these pens everyday because of how they pop off the page.

Be careful if you order these. Usually Pentel has really high quality products. However, I was sent a box of gel coloring pens that were clearly used, one pen was leaking, others were dried out. The box had clearly been opened and used. I'd be careful because it seems they may be recycling returns.

These pens work great for a few months. Then they dry out on their own. Even with the caps on, no matter how they're stored. I have some stored upside down in a cup, some rightside up in a cup, and some on their side and they all are drying out evenly. I have to work real hard to get ink out. For the first few weeks they were great. I recommend the Pilot G-2 07 color series. I have never had a problem with these no matter how they're stored. Best pens I've owned.

I bought these on a whim as I saw them online. They actually do work as stated. I like that they draw matte and are bright on dark paper.
