It is absolutely pretty, and the ink cartridge is so easy to put in I may dare call it foolproof. So while I will not be likely to produce any great art with this, I still like it. One of my favorite points is that, at least on the cheap grocery list slip I used to test it, the ink dried immediately and didn’t smear. I assume that will remain the case with higher quality paper designed to absorb ink. As a lefty, that makes it worth its weight in gold.

Pros-
Writes really nicely. I don't have to worry about the ink coming out inconsistently- it doesn't drip, and it's not blotchy- it comes out a nice, consistent black.
Really easy to get different line weights/thicknesses. It's flexible enough that you can get a wide range of thicknesses, but sturdy enough that you can also get consistent thickness, too.
Doesn't bleed, even when covering large areas (I use a Strathmore 400 series sketchbook)
Dries quickly. It doesn't dry immediately, but as long as I plot out where I'm going to start inking I don't have to worry about smudging, and I only leave my sketchbook open for an extra minute if I've covered large areas.
Cons:
I really wish I had gotten a smaller brush. Most of my drawings are no bigger than 5inx8in and it can be hard to get consistent lines at that size. I only use this brush if I want my lineart to be thick, but I feel that issue is more an user error than a problem with the brush itself.
And speaking of user error, this brush takes some practice to get used to. While I really enjoy that I can get lines that look very dynamic and visually appealing, it can be a real challenge to intentionally get those effects. I find that it's really easy to make lines too thin or too thick in the wrong places, and my shaky hands can really struggle at times cx
One thing that I did not like and the reason I do not give it 5 stars is because it wasn't clear to me that there is not another cartridge already inside of the pen. So really, its the pen (with one of the cartridges that you have to pop in) and 1 refill. The title and description saying "2 refills" implied to me that the pen already had one inside plus the 2 that are shown in the packaging. I suppose its not that big of a deal since more refills can be bought, but that's something to keep in mind if you have the same impression that I did. Surprisingly, the cartridge seems to last quite a bit so that's a plus!
I rely heavily on reviews when purchasing stuff on the internet and understand the importance of writing them as well to help others in their decisions. If you found this review to be informative in any way, please mark as "helpful". I would appreciate it very much! Have a great day!
The product shipped quicker than I expected, and everything was untainted/undamaged. The pen itself works VERY well. Installation was quick and easy. It's easier and simpler than filling a technical pen, and it's ready to use in moments. As you could imagine, the brush tip allows you to go from thin to thick with the flick of a wrist, and the amount of control you can get is nothing short of amazing. I was impressed at how thin the tip gets. If you're ever aggressive with the tip and it loses it's point, you can just roll it back into it's pointed cone design and it will be as good as it was when you got it out of the box. Another up side is that the risk of spilling ink is completely gone. This is a brush tip that will not drip on your artwork, canceling all infuriating moments of the past.
One con of the pen, is that you cannot make long, quick lines. Doing this makes the line sort of go from a solid black line to a rough texture. However, this is almost a plus for me; it allows you to experiment with textures that you normally wouldn't think of.
So as long as you're creative, this product goes above and beyond. Like I said, it's not perfect, but it does exactly what I want it to and more. I HIGHLY recommend it to any inker.
