The gel is different, good and ungood.
I didn't know exactly what "gel" meant. It's actually solid--very similar to using a crayon. When it wears down, you renew it by twisting the other end. It like them more than most other highlighters. The gel/ink is flourescent bright and doesn't bleed. The downside is because it is a solid tip, it changes shape through use so it's a bit hard to get very precise marks. I also don't like that the cap doesn't fit on the butt-end, so when you take the cap off, you just have to set it down somewhere. However, unlike regular highlighters, this one doesn't dry-out, so even if you lose the cap it should still work for a long time. It also doesn't fade after continuous use as many regular highlighters do (as the ink needs to work it's way through the permeable tip).

Wax is TOO soft - depletes quickly and leaves lots of little pieces of wax on documents.
These were disappointing. I was looking for a low-cost alternative to the expensive Sharpie brand wax highlighters, and these seemed to fit the bill. However, the wax is TOO soft. It not only depletes very quickly, but leaves lots of little pieces of wax on my documents. Three different people used these, and all 3 of us had the same experience. The Sharpie brand is definitely a much higher quality wax, but with the much higher price. I wish there was a happy medium between the expensive, high quality Sharpie high-lighters, and these low-quality, low-cost high-lighters.

Nice Cap Holder
Yes, good gel that doesn't dry out easily when left uncapped and does not leave a lot of gel bits on highlighted paper.However, a rarer feature may be the ridges on the end of the pen that make it easier to get a grip to advance the gel but also provides a more secure place to store the cap when the pen is in use. When pens don't have the ridges the cap is more likely to fall off and get misplaced. Its a little thing but it makes a difference.These are also very inexpensive.

Usually too lazy to write a review
But WOW! I got the multicolor. These are easily the BEST gel hilighters I've ever used.. out of many brands. I love that the colors are very bright. Another thing that makes these stand out above the rest is how nicely they write. It goes on smoothly with no gel hilighter crumbs either. These are excellent and will be my #1 gel hilighter.

I use these to highlight my bible
What I like: No bleeding through. Long lasting!What you need to know: Waxy texture like sheer crayons. Has tacky feel immediately after use. Tacky sensation goes away when it " dries". Colors will mix (ie. if you highlight in yellow then go over it in blue.. resulting color will be green).Love these highlighters.. haven't used traditional highlighters in my bible for over a year. Also work well on glossy pages of a text book.

I don't like it much
Eh... I don't like it much. It is not as neat as normal highlighters and it takes quite a lot of time to completely dry and until it dries, it is kind of sticky. After reading papers with this highlighters, my desk gets sticky due to what comes out of my paper.

A bit waxy, but bright translucent color
Pretty, and bright color, but the “gel” is wax-like but softer. It doesn’t bleed through the pages, but it does transfer to the opposite page in a book sometimes. There’s no real point, and they are too soft to sharpen, so the highlight line looks a bit messy sometimes. Great for highlighting loose-page documents and school work though.

Almost Perfect Highlighter.
These took some getting used to because the highlighter tip is so big. Also, I wish the top would fit the other end while I'm using it. That being said, I like them. The color is very bright for highlighting and the gel goes on well. I would buy these again.
