Paper Mate Profile Retractable Ballpoint Pens Bold, 1.4mm, Assorted Colors, 12 Count - Back to School, Home, Office, Teacher Supplies

Paper Mate makes quality pens. The colors are great and the pens write smoothly. Very good value for the price.

I am obsessed with these Paper Mate Profile pens! The ink glides across the page so smoothly that writing actually feels fun again. The colors are bold and vibrant, especially the purple and blue ones, which make notes pop. I love the thicker 1.4mm tip—it gives every word a nice, confident line without smudging. The grip is soft and comfy, so my hand doesn’t get tired even after a long writing session. These pens also click satisfyingly, which somehow makes me use them even more. I’ll definitely be restocking these when I run out because they’ve become my new writing go-to!

My absolute favorite pens! They are quality and last a long time. Never smudge and glide across paper. I use these a lot for taking notes at school and they are comfortable. Great color variety too!

I prefer to buy my own pens for work and usually get these in black but decided to get something fun and different this time. The colors are bright and easy to see. Each one lasts a long time. Writing is smooth. Comfortable to hold. The only thing I've noticed is with some of the colors the tip will dry out a little bit of you don't use it for a while and you need to rub it on a bit of scrap paper before writing properly.

I love these pens. I work in healthcare and I realize that a good pen really does make things easier to write things down to remember to chart later these pens are very smooth and write very well. These pens last a very long time throughout the entire shift I’ve used them back to back and haven’t had any issues.

I like these, the colors are nice and they're a nice gel pen. But they can also be quite patchy in use, some also seem smoother than others, but honestly not horrible for the price. They don't smudge from what I can tell and are comfortable in the hand.

Some ballpoint pens give faint ink lines and some gel pens give too much ink. This is the perfect balance.

Love these pens! Definitely a good price for the amount and quality!
