Clictek Fountain Pen Retractable: Medium Nib Blue Ink Transparent Barrel Includes 5 Refillable Ink Cartridges, Smooth Writing No Leaking

I’ve had my eye on these pens for a while. I love writing with fountain pens, but I have only ever used disposable fountain pens. This pen was a bit out of budget for me, and so when it when on sale, I jumped at the opportunity to get myself, and my friend this pen! It was so worth the cost, and now I can’t wait to buy more, even at the full price! These pens are great! They are easy to load, click open and close easily, and they write like a dream! I would a million times buy this again!

The novelty of this pen is very fun and it writes super smooth. The color is bright and it is an awesome addition to any avid writer. I love how the refill cartridges fit in and how pretty it writes, but it is not smudge proof. You need to let it dry slightly longer than a normal pen. It also leaks through most papers, so don't write double sided. Overall I will purchase again, especially since mine mysteriously vanished after my kids saw it. For functionality, it does get a little annoying because sometimes the ink doesn't come out as fast as I write. this is usually not a huge problem, more so when I am running out of ink. I do think they are really expensive for what they are, probably not worth the $25 I paid for them, but it lasted me though three smaller college-ruled notebooks of writing, so I think that it does come with a lot of ink. It is a heavy pen, and I think that they would be better if they offered some sort of comfort for the fingers around the front of the pen. It's very hard. I am still giving it 5 stars though because the quirky issues in function don't really deter from how awesome these pens are.

This retractable fountain pen is a nice alternative to a gel pen with smooth medium width lines. It is super convenient to click on/off to take notes without having to cap the pen in between uses; great for note-taking duty. However, for the fountain pen aficionados, this pen's "hand-feel" is more like a gel or quality ballpoint pen rather than the classic substantial feel of a fountain pen. Buy it if you are transitioning from a gel pen to a fountain pen but for those fountain pen afionados, try the Jinhao 10 for fountain pen experience at about the same price.

Was looking for a fountain pen for casual usage/note taking. This hits all the marks. Feels great in the hand, easily swap ink cartridges, writes very smooth, and is a nice bright blue. There is some slight smudging with the OEM ink, hoever you can use a syringe to refill the empty cartridge that comes in the pen. Great value here - writes very well for its price point. My new go to daily.

This pen writes smoothly with a satisfyingly wet ink flow, feels incredibly lightweight, and boasts impeccable sealing. While it may not be built to last a lifetime, I’d gladly purchase a new one each year for the sheer joy and ease it brings to writing.

I’m in love with this pen! It writes so smooth. Also it’s a really pretty look to it. This is my new favorite pen

Good, hard to get ink out

This is so smooth and ink flows nicely. The cartridges are small, but it comes With a bunch of refills. The case is also very cute and compact, and love the cap on the tip. So far, no smears or leakage.

Found it tricky to get the catridge to click in but finally managed to. A lot less messy than a usual ink pen

I am absolutely in love with this pen! If you're looking for the convenience of a click ballpoint but the smooth writing of a fountain pen, this is it. It’s an incredibly affordable alternative to the much pricier retractable pens out there. Pros: 1. Instant Start: The Clicktech door seal truly works. I left it sitting for over a week, clicked it, and it wrote immediately—no hard starts or drying out. This is its biggest selling point! 2. Writing Feel: The nib (I got the Fine) is surprisingly smooth and consistent. It glides across the paper perfectly for everyday notes and quick journaling. 3. Convenience: The one-handed operation is a lifesaver. No more fumbling with caps. Minor Quirk: The little sealing door stays open when the nib is extended, which looks a bit unusual, but it doesn't get in the way of my grip at all. Overall, excellent value for money. The pen feels sturdy, and the mechanism is reliable. Highly recommended! Shipping was fast and the pen arrived in perfect condition.

Having multiple fountain pen users around me, this was a nice surprise to all. Good: works as advertised Bad: after about a week of use, the lines became very thick compared to the 'new' pen. Ink bleed also increased. Usability: so far so good.

Well that’s money wasted. There’s a little flip cap that closes to keep the nib primed and protected. It clicks open when the pen is in use. And if you’re left-handed, you can’t see the nib. Unless you tilt down far enough - in which case the cap drags on the paper. Going to see if I can send it back, but it’s already got ink in it - so we’ll see. But absolutely think twice before spending this kind of money for a right-handed pen.
