Paper MateInkJoy Mini Ballpoint Pens | Retractable Medium Point (1.0mm) | Candy Pop Wraps | 10 Count

This is by far my favourite biro. Everything about it makes your handwriting neat, and as a result you can write smaller. This means that your notes take up less space on a page and your notes are more compact. The pen itself is triangular-shaped (most other pens are circular), and the triangular-shape makes it so much easier to hold and I think this is one of the main reasons why your handwriting looks nicer. It is just such a lovely pen. The ink flows as though it's a gel pen, but surprisingly it is a biro. When I write using another pen and compare my handwriting, there is a noticeable difference.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Good fine tip and it flows beautifully

Great for children for school

These ballpoint pens are perfect for everyday writing tasks as well as drawing or sketching. The ink flows smoothly, providing a consistent writing experience that’s perfect for note-taking or filling out forms. The fine point creates clear, neat lines, and the ink dries quickly, so there’s no smudging – great for left-handed writers!I’ve also used them for sketching and I’m impressed with how well they work for detailed line work. They’re great for adding fine lines and precision to drawings, whether for shading or outlining. While they aren’t as fluid for softer shading compared to gel pens, they excel for intricate detail and cross-hatching.The pens are comfortable to hold for long periods, with a solid, balanced design that doesn’t cause hand fatigue. They last a decent amount of time before needing to be replaced, which makes them great value for the price.Overall, a great set of pens for artists who enjoy using ballpoints for their drawings.

These pens are the BEST! I'll not use other brands unless absolutely necessary. They write smoothly and beautifully and are very bold colours. As a teacher, they improve the marking process!! You need these pens!

I bought these pens because I write a lot: for my job and at home. I used to buy these pens to take to school for pupils who had forgotten to bring a pen to class and pupils seem to enjoy writing with them. Teachers will know there is always that one pupil who likes to destroy a pen (occasionally as a ruse to get out of lesson: "Miss! Can I go and wash my hands? I've got ink all over my fingers!"). Inkjoy are pretty indestructible. In fact, I don't think there is a teacher who doesn't rate Papermate Inkjoy pens for similar reasons. I use the red version for marking and the children use the green pens for peer assessment.At home, I like to take notes; make lists and jot down ideas. I like to have pens all over the house so if I have a sudden idea, I can jot it down. Inkjoy pens are ideal for me because the triangle shape makes them easy to grip, which means neater handwriting. Because I write a lot, I can get sore fingers if I use the wrong pen, but these pens do not rub like other pens tend to do. Also, they have a good ink flow and seem to last as long as they should for a cheap pen. I think a pack of 5 from Amazon (without having to pay for postage) is pretty good value to be honest. Normally, I would chuck a pack of these in the trolley at the supermarket, but at the moment I'm avoiding the shops and buying most things online. I've been writing with one of these pens today and have found no issues with it. Typical Paper Mate quality.

Good pens

The pen is nice to hold but it is scratchy to write with and the ink keeps cutting out as if the ink is running out
