Smooth writing tip and comfortable in the hand

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Writing a review on a pen is sometimes a simple does it work and last. But the Profile is a different story. It's a high quality pen, especially for the price. It is comfortable in the hand and doesn't tire your grip. I tend to write for up to an hour at a time and typically 3 to 4 hours a day, so the comfort in the hand is important. The pens also use ink judiciously, meaning they last for several weeks before running low on ink. The glide ...

Smooth writing

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think a good set of ballpoint pens is always good to have on hand at home or wherever needed. These are also retractable pens so no worries of loosing any caps. This is a set of four red pens which write smoothly and does not bleed or smear when using. I like to use these pens to make grocery lists, letters, fill out documents and more. They feel sturdy and comfortable when using. So for anyone looking for a good set of red ballpoint pens the...

Nice

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I go through pens a lot and always looking for new ones. These pens are nice especially if you’re moving fast. No more taking the top off or losing it. Just press the top down and start using. Do the same when you’re done. The red ink is very bold and the pen itself is very comfortable to write with.

Smooooooth

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are great. Very visible red stands out for notes and annotations. The pen is so smooth, it is a pleasure to write with these. Biggest problem I have now is keeping my kids from “borrowing” mine and not giving them back. May have to start locking these up. Thank goodness for the 4-pack.

Red pen

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I normally don't use red ink pens but I love this one. The ink comes out easily and clear. I don't have any issues with it writing continuously. It is very comfortable to hold as well. I recommend this pen.

New favorite!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are perfect for everyday use! They have become my new favorite! They have a very comfortable contoured grip that fits perfectly in your hand. It has the smoothes glide while writing I've ever seen! The ink is great and writes very smoothly without leaking ink.

Love 'em!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these bold, vibrant red pens! The color is great and the thickness of the ink is perfect if you like a bold point. They work exactly like I'd expected they would. The retractable feature is definitely preferable to a cap (one less thing to keep track of) and so far, there's been no issues with quality. I would definitely look to purchase more of these in other colors.

Writes SO smooth

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is just something I love about a comfortable pen that writes smooth and consistently, and this pen does that and DIDN'T cost a whole lot! I'm amazed! It is by far my favorite pen now and I would recommend this pen to everyone that has to write a lot and is frustrated by cheapo pens failing them and/or hand cramps. This pen does not of that, and is so satisfying!!!

No smearing!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No smearing and such a smooth glide across paper! I love the color red anyways but those to factors make this pen even more amazing! I use it for grading and making notes so I don't have time for messy smearing. Comfortable to hold which is a big plus as well. I will definitely be recommending this particular brand to my co workers!

Does what a pen is supposed to do

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We never seem to have enough pens around the house. Especially now when I am working out of the house. These pens have a nice ink flow. The padded grip helps with the arthritis I have recently developed

No smears

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Paper Mate Retractable Ballpoint Pens are comfortable to hold, and don't leak. I like the click top and the comfort grip. The ink is bold and flows smoothly while writing. It does not smear or leave globs of ink on the paper.

Paper Mate Writing is smooth again!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Paper Mate Profile red pen to try and state how I felt using this pen writing. I took it into work, as I figured this would be the place I would get the most use out of a red pen. I was surprised at the quality of the ball point and the smooth writing that the pen produced. My last memories of Paper Mate : they were thin pens, hard to hold onto, slippery shafts, just meh writing. This pen, though, was smooth. The handle...

Not what I expected

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very disappointed with the Paper Mate Profile Retractable Ballpoint Pens, Bold, Red, 4 Count. All four pens, the ink never came out and was unable to write anything down. Could tell the product was very cheaply made. Very disappointed.

Great pens

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens work well for many uses. The ink isn't blotchy and doesn't run. I am able to get a consistent line. I dont have to scribble to get ink to come out. They seem to last long time as I write a lot. Overall great product that I will definitely buy more of.

Great working pens!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These PAPER MATE PROFILE 36/CT BLACK pens are really nice. They work really well, write very smoothly, easy moving pen. The pens feel very comfortable in my hand. They write very nice on many kinds of papers and the ink does not bleed. I keep them in the car, at home, at work because they write really nice.

I want more!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who keeps losing pens, I think a box of 36 will do me! I keep one in my room, by my couch, on my computer table, in my car, in my purse, anywhere I can think of. I love the smooth writing these have. And I love that it’s click instead of twist or taking the whole cap off and losing it. I’ll definitely be buying another box.

Work great!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens write good. I use them for taking notes and marking and they work wonderful. They have a good red color to them. They have a good grip and are easy to hold onto. They are lasting well and I am pleased with them. My boys use them in school and say they work great too!

Ink doesn’t smudge

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Paper mate products are some of the best pens that I usually choose. Working in healthcare I do a lot of writing, these pens felt good to write with and the ink didn’t smudge which is always a plus. The price is very affordable.
