Excellent for the price. The ink quality is fantastic and I couldn't be happier. I've only just started using them but I think I'll be buying more of these for sure!***UPDATEAfter working with these pens for the last few days I am extremely happy with my choice and just bought another set. Not only is this set worth the price but the ink quality is still fantastic! They give Micron and even Copic a run for their money.****UPDATE 2I ordered another set but when it came in, some of the pens were dry. They were kind enough to refund me and I bought yet another set. I am set with inking pens for quite some time but as soon as those all run out I will be back to get more. I'm a fan of Micron and Copic but these pens have the same quality at a lower cost. My artwork still looks as good as it would with a Micron or Copic so I am very pleased and give this seller an A++

Anytime I buy something inexpensive on Amazon, I worry that it will be terrible quality. Although this is one of the cheapest options for this type of pen set, it works extremely well.I have a light touch when I'm writing, so for me, these pens use just the right amount of ink to make even small writing readable.The ink doesn't bleed at all. It dries almost instantly, no matter how hard you press. It also doesn't bleed through the page unless you use a lot of ink.The only thing I don't like is that the numbers on the top of the pen cap wear off easily. I left a photo to show what I mean. Only one has worn off so far and I keep them organized in the same case they came in, so I can still tell the difference between them, but if all the numbers wear off, it'll start getting confusing.Edit:Before Amazon discontinued the comments section, someone suggested I put clear nail polish on the tops of the pens so the numbers don't wear off. I did that and they're fine now, so I have no complaints.

I used these like the cheap pens they are and they held up better than my Micron pens. They had more ink and the nibs were more durable. I have a heavy hand and quite often I can destroy weak nibs very quickly. These held up and were smooth beginning to dry-which took forever. Well, for a drawing pen.I LOVE black and my micron's tend to only last for a very short while-MAYBE a couple of weeks. These were at least twice as long. In fact, I STILL have all but the .05 and 1-which always go faster than the others because I do a LOT of detail and fine cross-hatch work. I ordered in September. It's January. NEVER has that happened. I've never lasted a month with a set.Sizes were excellent! I am ordering a new set only because I need the fines!

These are an alright product.Pros:- Large variety of sizes- Don't bleed through paper- Appear to be waterproof. I don't use watercolors but I did use alcohol markers and they held up fine. They also held up to some water dripped on the paper.Cons:- Not very opaque on the first layer, my black marker and colored pencil are a lot darker making drawings look a bit odd unless you want to layer it up. Which to me, defeats the purpose of doing a very thin line since that will just thicken it.- Take awhile to dry so you need to wait awhile to color. I smudged it on accident the first time I tried using them.Overall I wouldn't say these are awful, they hold up better than a lot of cheap pens, but I definitely wouldn't buy them again. I prefer lines that are more opaque, and quicker to dry than these were.

I ordered these back at the end of 2021. I tested out the line weights of each nib on a test paper when I got them and they appeared fine. However I didn't really use these much afterwards with the exception of the finest 0.2mm pen. It seemed to work fine for my needs.However, recently I decided to start the Drawabox course and they require the use of fine liners for their exercises. And in fact, I was initially happy to find out that the set they recommend was this exact set. So I broke them out, ready to start the course. I start doing the first homework exercise from Lesson 1 and notice the 0.5 mm liner (the size they require) is consistently making very dry marks. So I start trying various sizes near the 0.5 mm and all of these liners also consistently make dry marks.It turns out most of this set either shipped with very poor ink flow or the ink has somehow managed to dry up in the pens while sitting in the draw for half a year. Either way, very unsatisfied with this product. And I notice there's a number of other reviews with similar issues.I would say buyer beware with these. They seem like a gamble. I guess if you get a good set, they're a great value. But it looks like there's a solid chance you may also get a dud dry set. In my case I wish I had just paid for a better set. I'm giving it 2 stars as not all of the pens were defective. But still, this is pretty terrible as most were.
