PILOTJuice Gel Ink Ballpoint Pen, 0.5mm, 12 Color Set (LJU120EF-12C)

Nice gel color pen for nice price!

I love Pilot Juice Pens! I bought this set to try out some colors I've never used before. These pens write smoothly...no skips...comfortable to hold...and the colors are true. I highly recommend this set. I paid $11.18 for this set. That's less than $1 per pen.

I’m in journaling and planning so I love colored pens! These are comfy to hold, have a nice variety of colors, and are smooth to write with. I haven’t noticed any skipping with them. The only thing I’m not a fan of about this pack is the Apple Green color. It is a little too light for my taste as it is not easy to read on paper. You have to really look to see what is written versus a darker color you can just glance at the paper and see the words.

These pens are quite nice and fun to write with! The variety of colors is great. They're largely smooth (though my purple seems to be a bit dry in spots). Other than the purple being inconsistent, the only other cons are the drying time and the legibility of some of the brighter colors. These definitely smear if you don't give them time to dry. The light orange, green, and light blue can be hard to see. I wish they were a little richer. Oh, and I do notice some big ink spots, but that seems to be all Pilot pens, so I wasn't surprised. If you're looking for a good color variety and mostly smooth writing, I'd definitely recommend these.

Once you try these, you will not be able to go back to using any other pen. These gel pens are smooth and come in a variety of different colors. (This pack includes about 12 of 36 colors total) I love these for taking notes, doodling in my planner, writing to-do lists, etc. They are very smooth and do not bleed through paper! They also don't skip, which, for me, is the most important thing in a pen. I'd say these are well worth the money and the hype and will continue to buy again. (:(note: they do smear with some highlighters if you highlight too fast after writing)

Great for Bible journaling as they have very little ghosting compared to other colored pens. Suuuuper smooth writing. Just perfection.

This is my first time purchasing the Pilot Juice ballpoint gel pen having experienced many of their other pens from the Hi-Tec C Coleto multi pen, the classic G2, Frixion erasable ink, and their fountain pens. While the Juice pen is very similar in size to the G2 and the black and blue ink colors, the Juice pen has a slightly different outer build with a spring loaded pocket clip and mesmerizing watercolor inks that come in a broad variety of colors. While the Pilot Hi-Tec line has the same offering, the availability and price of the imported pen, along with the pitiful amount of ink that comes in the multipen Coleto edition refills drew me away. Happily the juice line shares many colors with the Coleto line for a way more reasonable price along with more ink. I ultimately purchased these pens for note taking and I am completely sold now. Upon trying the 0.5 mm size I am now wanting to purchase the 0.38 size as will in the complete color range.

In the Pilot Juice Gel Pen Set, there is an assortment of 12 vibrant colors including a fine tip, 0.5mm for detailed writing. The pens have smooth grips that make them comfortable to hold and I haven't encountered any leakage problems with them. These are pluses worth noting.However, my experience with the pen’s ink has not been very pleasant. Although the ink produces a clear and crisp line, sometimes it feels rough especially when used on inexpensive paper. The smooth gel pen experience I was looking for was not quite present in these pens. It also takes longer for the ink to dry as compared to other gel pens of this kind which might result in smudging especially amongst us left-handed people who tend to run our hands over fresh writings.Overall, Pilot Juice Pen set is okay. The colors are amazing and the grip is good enough for me. However, given its price tag I anticipated that it would provide me with smoother writing involving faster drying inks, if these features matter more than anything else then these aren't the pens for you.
