We bought these pens for our son to use for schoolwork. Like many boys he tends to be a bit untidy and so the pens are useful for him to correct his work and avoid having a page of crossing outs.The minor criticisms I would have, from the viewpoint of a parent are:(1) The barrel could benefit with being thicker for a child(2) The ink flow is not always that smoothNotwithstanding the above these are clearly some of the best pens in the market for schoolchildren…..….however two weeks before his exams disaster struck. One weekend he opened his history exercise book to find all his essays had vanished.Where there had once been model essays the page was now blank except for the teacher’s red ink corrections.There was much hair pulling and panic that weekend – before we deduced what happened. A few days earlier, in a cookery class at school he had prepared a meal. Being in a rush he had put the hot meal (straight out of the oven) in a plastic box and stuffed it in his school bag next to his history book.It turns out the Frixon pen ink is not heat-fast. Indeed the reason it can be erased is that the rubber at the back end of the pen generates heat when you try to ‘erase’ the ink on the page. Subsequently we have read of the ink also vanishing on pages or books left behind a car windscreen on a hot day. (I would also be wary of putting pages written in this ink near a hot central heating radiator).So how to recover the pages? Our solution was to put the exercise book into a ziplock bag and then place it in the freezer for 20 to 40 minutes. Almost by magic the ink will reappear – however it is not quite as vibrant as originally but the pages were readable.Our conclusion – excellent pens for schoolwork but anything that will be required for revision for an exam ought to be photocopied (to give you a backup copy) or use a different pen.Incidentally for the same reason (ie the risk that an examiner leaves the exam scripts in a warm place) I think it is reasonable to advise extreme caution in using these pens for actual exams.Despite the above ‘disaster movie’ situation I am awarding these pens five stars as they clearly are the best in the market – and far better than having a page full of crossings out or tippex. BUT you need to be aware of the heat sensitivity issue.We found our son was literally going through a pen every few days. As a consequence I would also advise buying the refills in bulk as they are widely available and with careful purchasing can lead to significant cost savings versus constantly buying the pens. Indeed the refills are a standard size and so you might find better / more comfortable pen bodies to use with the refills. We have found some (though not all) ‘plastic’ erasers will erase the ink (as long as they generate enough heat as discussed above).I hope this review is helpful.

I needed a pen to replace the one I got with my everlasting notebook.I couldn’t see anyone else commenting about how compatible these pens were and whereas some people had suggested on the notebook reviews that any water-based pen would work, I can safely confirm that is not the case.So, the quest was on to find something that I can use that won’t damage it permanently mark my book and can be easily removed when needed.I bought these pens a bit warily but tested them on the back page before confidently using them.I must admit I’m more impressed with these than the pen that came with the notebook as these wipe off so much easier whether using the rubber or a cloth.Whereas the supplied pens left marks on the pages,these do not. They don’t score or leave indents which is great. They wipe off well first time without needing elbow grease and scrubbing like the original one.Will buy more of these now I’ve tested them.Great item.Pic 1 - written note dries quickly without smudgingPic 2 - rubbed the eraser across the page - easily removed a section of the pen without smudging or looking a messPic 3 - wiped a damp cloth down the middle to see how easy this came offPic 4 - one wipe over the whole page with a damp cloth and the writing is gone without a trace.Awesome!!!

This is the only type of erasable pen I have used so far and I must say it's great! Erases really well, you can write on top of where you just erased, no problem at all. The blue colour is very nice. I prefer 0.7 to 0.5 because it stands out on paper well. 0.5 is a bit bleak for the paper I write on but is still better than an ordinary biro!The pens are quite expensive if bought on their own but are reasonably priced if bought in a pack (3pounds separately vs 1.53 per pen when bought in a pack of 12). The seller dispatched my order very fast and the pens arrived the next day.Ink lasts quite well but not as well as a biro. I am doing an engineering degree so I take a lot of notes in each lecture,solve a lot of problems on paper and take many more home. With this crazy amount of writing a pen lasts me exactly one week (strange, huh).Biro's used to last a lot more but were so untidy!For me, this is a must have. I love these pens so much I make sure there is always a spare couple in the house.If you like stationary, give it a go!

I absolutely 'adore' these pens and so does everyone else who have seen me use them. I practically use them every day at work because when I'm filling in documents for clients and they suddenly realise 'oh no that's wrong actually its....' I can easily just erase it out, without having to waste paper and a lot of handwriting!The negative points: The ink doesn't last long. I find that the 0.7 ballpoint it a bit too thick for my liking (although that's just my personal opinion) but I've just noticed they've created a smaller size so I'm going to give that a go instead. Its also not suitable for glossy paper because it tends to easily come off. And the ink on magazines tends to spoil the eraser tip i.e.you'll notice afterwards that the eraser will mark on normal paper (but I guess that happens on any normal eraser?!)Overall I would suggest anyone to give them a go - especially for pupils taking their exams. If they could make the ink last a little bit longer they would be A+++ fabulous :o)

I have tried to upload a video to show this working but for some reason it won’t load. These pens are really smooth to write with and feel lovely to hold...BUT I have been searching and trying different erasable pens for marking fabric in that hope that it actually does work.I am very pleased to say that they work wonderfully on fabric in that you can either rub the fabric with the correct end of the pen but even easier and more effective is to simply hover the iron over the pen marks on the fabric and it immediately disappears.The pen erases on paper very well too and definitely recommend.To say I am pleased is really an understatement.I have purchased a second packet as discovered these are available in several colours and also refills are available too. Note though, I discovered that different colours are different prices for some reason but nevertheless, they are good value. Highly recommended.

I've honestly been wanting one of these pens for absolute ages, ever since they came out. Kids at school and a few friends had it and I loved it! Unfortunately, they were very expensive and my mum would not buy them. I didn't buy them because if I had, I would not really have that much money left. I've often looked on Amazon to check if there are any specials, although there haven't been. So when I came and saw this deal, I was over the moon! The postage was excellent and arrived within 2 days. When you write with this pen, it's so soft and smooth. When you rub out, it goes away. When I bought this item I knew that if it was put against a lot of heat, the writing would disappear.I would not use it for professional use, although it's perfect for school. It arrived today and I can't wait to use it more often!! A great product, great price, great thing!! I DEFINITELY recommened it! :)

I use these during classes, and mainly during exams that are mandatory to be written in ink, so I can erase any mistake.Sometimes, the eraser bit can smudge a little, and to erase big portions of text I just hit the paper with a lighter flame and it instantly disappears. I also found out it reappears if the paper is placed in the freezer (nice way of playing secret message with kids...).The only drawback is that for you to use the erase, you have to either keep putting and removing the cap on the top of the pen or just leave it off, wich I dont like to do because desks at university are small, and thats one more thing on the way, and how fast the ink ends: on a busy period,I am switching cartridges every week!Fortunately, there are refills available, and a clicker version that solves the cap placement issue.

These pens are the weapons of choice for our left handed 9 YO. Lovely smooth action (no scratchiness at an angle) and the ink sets nice and quickly. For us lefties this is great, means you can write in “good ink” without having smeary pages!These pens ? use Thermochromic ink. And it’s a sciency delight!! ? ?Essentially when you rub the ink with the end of the pen it generates friction heat. The ink reacts and is gone. But it’s not!!The beauty of Thermochromic ink is that the chemical reaction is reversible (see video). You can take a page of writing and wave it over the hob to make it disappear. Then you can put it in the freezer to make the ink REAPPEAR! It’s awesome stuff and you can do it as many times as you want.?Or you can be boring and just rub out your mistakes ?

Fantastic pens especially for my 9 year old son, he loves the fact you can write in 'pen' and rub out the 'pen' :) Easy pens to write with and reasonably comfortable to hold, nice fine lines and really nice vivid colours. Going to get some of the other colours in due course to add to the collection. You basically just write and if you make a mistake use the soft end to rub out the ink, fairly easy to do you don't have to press to hard and the pen is gone, doesn't leave any pen residue but you can sometimes see (if you tilt the paper) the original line imprint - but not a big issue if you are writing over the area you have just erased.Not sure how long the ink will last but with the price here on Amazon they are definitely good value for money.

After initially being sceptical of how effective these pens would be, I was pleasantly surprised by just how well they work! The pen uses thermochromic ink which 'disappears' when it hits a certain temperature. Of course, in this case the heat is provided by friction from rubbing with the end of the pen. This removes ink cleanly and with no residue.An interesting feature that is fun to try out (though maybe it's just me that finds this interesting!) is that the thermochromic reaction is reversible. This means that if you 'rub out' some writing and put the paper in a cold freezer, the ink will reappear and then disappear on rubbing. This can be repeated over and over again.Less of a review and more of a science lesson,sorry!

I had bought a pink coloured one in the past and loved it as it is, but didn't realise that you could erase them, until my 2nd purchase when I thought 'blimey, even better!!' (what a clutz I am!!)Brilliantly gliding (although it takes about a page of A4 for this little marvel to get going it seems) and lovely colour, that are true to the casing (no wishy-washy colours). When the ink needs replacing though, it's hit and miss, so you need the replacement cartridge changed immediately when you notice the ink is not as forthecoming (no point in forcing it out by shaking it for eg, it won't get any better).

I buy these regularly from this seller & I'm a very happy customer. Being dyslexic, having a pen I can correct is so satisfying. I also order other colours too. Being a student, I tend to colour code my work to make it easier to find things when looking back. So having the frixion pens in different colours is really helpful. I would highly recommend frixion pens to everyone & I have a friend who I regularly give them as gifts to her. She really enjoys using them. And the fact that they seem to glide across the page makes them really easy & pleasant to use.

I bought these for my 10 year old daughter who is nervous about writing in pen as she is an absolute perfectionist! She hates writing in pencil and having to rub out as there are always smudges remaining - not so with these pens! They are wonderful - she can now write in ink without any pressure and any mistakes are easily rectified. My left handed son also likes them as they do not smudge. Unlike a normal rubber the eraser on the pen doesn't make lots of little flakes that go everywhere so I love them too! We've ordered another set!

5.6.2014

I love these pens as the end of the pen has an eraser which rubs out the ink really well. As I'm always making changes to appointments in my work diary, they are a godsend! My son also uses them for school. I was pleased to find a pack of 3 of the same colour on amazon, as they usually come in packs with a red pen in the shops which we never use. They're also cheaper on here. The only problem with them is that they run out quite fast, but they're so much better than other erasable pens that it's worth it.

As others have reported, these pens don't last that long. Ball point pens seem to go on for ever - well a year anyway - but at the same level of usage you'd be luck to get three months and as these pens are, say three times as expensive, that means in reality they cost 12x as much for the same amount of writing. The pens do work very well, they write smoothly and they erase well, so it's up to you if the convenience is worth the 12x cost factor (and, of course, ball point pens are often given away free).
