first of all, the colours of these highlighters are fantastic. they are really lovely soft pastel colours, which are perfect for many different things. in general, as highlighters, they are really great, however, the "erasable" part is not so great. it depends on what type of paper you're using, but the erasable part varies. i used this on my normal everyday lined paper, and it erased perfectly, however when i went to highlight in a book (from school), when i tried to erase, it wouldn't erase and it actually ended up smudging the words, and now the words that i highlighted are unreadable. it was a real shame when i discovered this. not to mention,

When I saw these pens I was so amazed, finally I can use highlighters without my eyes hurting! These make revising so much easier on my eyes and can keep me focused without wanting to look away from the most important parts that are covered in neon yellow. And in addition they are erasable!!They are also very aesthetically pleasing as the pens are lovely pastel colours, and the ink is very pretty and they all go together well, perfect for artists and anyone who loves pens.They work best on white paper, and on grey paper some colours are better than others. The blue, mint, orange and pink look really nice, the violet colour is more muddy and has more grey tones than purple, which makes it duller.

Decent quality. Nib is not quite wide enough to highlight an 0.5mm row. The purple is a fairly mild colour - like a mildliner (which I originally thought these were. I have not actually tried other mildliner but this seems to be similar to what I've seen online). The yellow is neon, like stabilo boss highlighters. The others (blue green and pink) are somewhere in between. Nice colours.They do not 'bleed' on paper, neither do they ghost at all (show through on the other side of the page). They seem decent quality.As for the erasable aspect, I wouldn't really recommend them for this use (I have to admit, this is something that persuaded me to buy it).

These highlighters (or should I say mild lighters!?!) are fantastic for revision! They clearly make my notes stand out but don't hurt my eyes or obscure the text like fluorescent highlighters do. The colours are very pretty pastel shades and stand out on different coloured papers as well.The eraser side works well usually and is extremely useful when making revision summaries or highlighting textbooks (especially text books that aren't yours!) the ink isn't wet like cheaper brands of highlighters and doesn't smear the text underneath them which means they can be used with fountain pens or pens notorious for smudging.

These are bright, cheerful highlighter pens. I love pens. I love these. They have clip on the lid which I use to stop them rolling around. They're nice and neat, not chunky like old fashioned highlighters. They make a great, sharp edged mark because of the nice fibre tip. They do have some weird tattoo style design on them, I suspect I'm too old to like that :-DThe ink does erase, though I haven't tried to do that often. I was concerned in other reviews of the frixion range that the ink disappears in time, but I figured that wasn't really an issue with highlighting so that;s the only reason this has 4 stars instead of 5.

I love these pens! They are great for highlighting books, that I plan on selling once I'm done with them as it can be easily erased!However, be aware that not all book inks can be rubbed as they end up smudging the text. So I now have to test all books before highlighting.This is annoying but it is not the fault of the pens, hence why I didn't knock a star off, this is the fault of the publishers.The colours are bright and look great! Although the blue and purple are quite dark, but this doesn't bother me.I would recommend for anyone in education who wishes borrow books or sell them on later.

I wanted to use this for when I highlight in my books but would like not to permanently imprint ink on the pages. So I thought I would give these a go and they do work. However older books left a slight mark of the colour and smudged the text a little when rubbing out, but I guess older books aren't as well printed and the paper as well protected. Nonetheless effectiveness of the product is fine, the issue is they don't last long. I used it for a week, highlighted maybe 50 - 80 max pages, (not whole pages of course but snippets of text), and I feel it didn't really go as far as I would have hoped.

These are great highlighter. Normal colours are too dark and harsh most of the time and a different brand of pastel ones left a lot of ink deposit when I was highlighting anything as in I would be highlighting and then there would be a giant splodge at the end. These are on the more expensive side but I will be using (and have been) these constantly. They come in really nice colours and I'm surprised how often I use the yellow shade as I assumed I probably wouldn't. All the colours match well together and they came on time.

I love Frixion products. I was wary after reading a couple of bad reviews but I have had no problem at all both with these highlighters and their erasable pens. I have to say that I didn't realise that you rubbed them out with the plastic thing at the bottom of the pen and originally used a rubber!!!! This didn't work :):):) Anyway, used properly they are super. I use them to highlight my music. I was looking for a cheaper alternative to highlighter tape and I believe that I have found it.

They do exactly what they're advertised to do. Before I was using BIC highlighters and was frustrated because when you make a mistake with a highlighter, it's hard to take back. However, these are perfect for that purpose. The only reason I'm dropping 1 star is because the colours aren't as "vibrant" as my old BIC highlighters. Vibrant highlighters are pretty crucial when it comes to revision but overall I'm happy with the purchase.

These highlighters really do rub out using the frixion eraser on the 'tail' of the pen. They do leave a stain on heat sensitive paper (some receipts) when rubbing out. They also will stretch thin paper (e.g. bible paper), so not really for rubbing out, but the colour does not leak through to the other side of the page (other than the page being so thin that you can half see the print on the other side anyway).

These pens are a bit of a life saver. I'm always a bit skeptical when I highlight my note, thinking I'll mark the wrong thing. These are great, if I do mark the wrong thing I can easily rub it out. They're also hand for using in my textbooks. I hate writing in books but as my lecturer told me "get over it" and these are a win win.I definitely recommend them. I'd be lost without them.

Brought these for doing my crosswords, very pleased to say they work for my purposes! I do love the fact they erase (which actually do erase!) Superb quality, lovely colours, very smooth, for my wordsearches I can do a thin line for finding the words then a thicker line for crossing them out. Really happy the pens are brill at a great price.

Pros:Pink, green and orange are pretty and stand out as much as you'd want them toErase well as far as I can tellCons:Purple is pretty washed out in a way I don't really consider pastel and isn't always visable on a pageYellow isn't always visable on a pageCan make writing underneath a bit grey if you're using them over a frixon pen

Great pens, nice bright colours and erases easily as long as you let the ink dry first (otherwise it gets a little smudgey)Only complaint is that the box they come in is broken. Doesn't affect the pens themselves but i usually like to keep them in the box for carrying them. Guess I'll need to use a pencil case instead.
