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.

Many years ago my mother bought me a Papermate ball point pen. It was (and still is) beautiful, slim and silver in colour. At the time it was one of a new type - the ink inside was erasable. I always thought that what happened next was a shame.When it came out it was not happily greeted by all - most of the exam boards banned any pen that could be erased and therefore "hide any errors that the student might make" and that this was "cheating".Of course banning the pen was a stupid knee-jerk reaction because students could still cross out or scribble over any mistake they made ... and then there was liquid paper (Tippex) too; and since when was deleting/altering an error/mistake on an exam paper cheating!Anyway,

These pens are amazing, it's so easy to erase the ink from more or less any type of paper, just using gentle friction which doesn't leave any mess or damage to the paper. The only paper that doesn't react well is really lightweight newsprint or magazine paper.I find the pens invaluable for four main reasons:1. It's brilliant to be able to start a chart of information, knowing that you can return to it time after time to update the data. For example, noting down monthly income on a chart at the start of the year, knowing that the sums involved can vary. It's so easy to correct the chart & it'll look perfect.2. You can erase mistakes, or in my case the mess created when I fall asleep whilst writing notes etc.

I received one as a small thank-you gift, which I know was bought from Amazon.Coming from Pilot, these have a reputation to live up to. Several of the best disposable or refillable ball and gel pens I have used and continue to use have come from this brand as did the excellent but unfortunately no longer available nylon-tipped disposable fountain pen which was first introduced many years ago. The eraseable feature of these is covered by the small soft white plastic 'bubble' at the end of the pen. This may wear out with frequent use but the semi-transparent white plastic erasers should work just as well.The point is very small which produces a fairly fine line and there does not appear to be a broader version.

As stated in other reviews yes these pens are not exactly very black more dark greyish, having said that I love them and will buy them in future, they write really well and the rubbing out is fantastic as long as you write over what has been rubbed out it is un-noticeable, my two children aged 5 years and 9 years use these pens now for their homework and both enjoy using them, my 9 year old struggles with a lot of pens working for her (ball point pens are useless for her) as she is left handed but these pens are perfect for her to use!As a preschool teacher I now use these on all of my paperwork and updating my development books and general day to day observations ect, these pens mean my papers look much better,

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,

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.

I was looking for an erasable green pen based on my previous experience in using red and blue erasable pens in US. I didn't expect at this stage they already discovered how to make gel erasable pens, but here we are - they did! This is the most advanced to date erasable pen I know, using ink gel that can be removed by friction either by using the pen intself (the part opposite to the tip) or any other rounded object that won't damage the paper you're writing on. Quite clever and so easy to use! The previous erasable pens I used have had normal erasers that, after a while, needed to be replaced. On this one, nothing is consumed when you erase! Only the ink. Very convenient...

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 order a box of 12 Frixion pens approximately every 6 months, and couldn't get by without them. They are brilliant for note taking as I can go back and correct any mistakes without leaving any messy marks. They are also invaluable in my GCSE exams, because if the examiner can't read my scrawl, then he or she won't mark my paper. With my Frixion pens though, I can just go back and neaten up if my handwriting gets too bad. When you pick up the pen it feels well made; the lid clicks on so perfectly and it seems very solid. I have never had one break or snap in about 9 months of using them, and they don't half take a beating at school! For just over £1.60 a pen its definitely worth it.My ONLY criticism,

This is the review of a student who uses his pens for school work day in day out, firstly i think the pen looks nice because it has a good pattern on it and looks top middle end, secondly it is good for function because you can rub out ink with it and the ink lasts a decent time, but as for the usability i wouldn't score it very high because it doesn't have much grip which means you need to hold on to it hard, and also the replaceable ink cartridges that you buy once the ink has run out are far to expensive and need to be reduced which means that at the moment people are more likely to just buy a new pen as there's hardly any difference in price i would be looking for the price to come down to £3 for 8 ink cartridges,

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,

These little chappy's are pretty cool.A fluid synthetic ink that can be erased. They do exactly as they say on the box!I've been using them for marking up work and so far so good!As stated they can't be used with news paper, and I have also found that they struggle on thin white paper (for use with black & white printing) - This is only because during the frixion rubbing process, it wears down the paper too quickly.I've also found on normal paper, if you rub too hard, it does start to damage the paper, but, that could be because I am doing it wrong :PAll in all, a good pen, a great handy ink that can be removed incase of mistake and very comfortable for the hands :)Awesome!

These are brill, though maybe not so much on newspaper. Depending on the quality of paper you write on depends on the erasability, but I can do my puzzles in pen now instead of pencil and my son uses them for his school work and homework (he had an obsession where if he made a mistake the whole sheet went in the bin and he'd start again, so he had to do all his homework in pencil - now he's grown up and using a pen). The advantage to using these pens instead of rubbing out a pencil is no little bits of rubber everywhere - the ink is removed by the friction created when rubbing the end of the pen on the paper. They're not cheap but to coin a phrase "they're worth it".

Ok, so I have to admit I don't have the greatest handwriting in the world. But since these pens arrived I'm sure it has changed for the better! The nibs are a very fine at 0.7mm meaning they give a very accurate style of writing and the the ink eraser at the end is fantastic for getting rid of little mistakes. Overall I am delighted with this product and I think the box of 12 reprosents very good value for money considering the premium nature of this stationary; The only thing I would mention is that the handle on the pen lid is very fragile and break's extremely quickly when bent, other than that a very high quality product at a great price. Couldn't be happier.
