...of around 0.4 mm.I bought these initially for creating 'prompt cards' and have been using them regularly for over 18 months now for a variety of other tasks that require a touch of fine colour.The pens are comfortable in hand and lovely to write with without any scratchiness or feathering on the paper quality I tend to favour for this sort of work.There is a bit of a tug & twist motion required to get the cap off and a sharp push to replace with an audible click, in my experience. The cap usefully fits over the bottom of the pen, for safekeeping.There is no noticeable odour using these, in my experience, even if the cap is left off for a period of time.The barrel colour is the easily recognised ORANGE-YELLOW colour,with the trademark WHITE stripes.Each slim, hexagonal-barrelled pen is around 16.5 cm in length and the ventilated cap & opposite end indicate the ink colour, which is also coded on the barrel, along with:? STABILO® Point 88 ? Fine 0.4, along with the swan logoOn another side is the product reference & colour code, ‘PP’, along with the relevant bar-code detail.The colours I received are a good selection of basics, exactly as shown in the stock image above, namely:? YELLOW? ORANGE? RED? PINK? PURPLE? BLUE? LIME? DARK GREEN? BROWN? BLACK...although, the right to replace a colour in a set, if necessary, is reserved.Various sized sets are available and it is worth noting that the 'Stabilo Point 88® fineliner' can be purchased singly at good stationery outlets, offering a good chance to 'try it & see'.ooOooThe full list of regular colours in the current STABILO® palette is as follows:REF : COLOUR? 88/11 : ICE BLUE? 88/13 : ICE GREEN? 88/16 : LIGHT EMERALD? 88/17 : HELIOTROPE (PINK-PURPLE)? 88/19 : PURPLE? 88/22 : PRUSSIAN? 88/24 : LEMON YELLOW? 88/26 : LIGHT FLESH-TINT? 88/29 : PINK? 88/30 : PALE VERMILION? 88/31 : LIGHT BLUE? 88/32 : ULTRAMARINE? 88/33 : LIME? 88/36 : GREEN? 88/38 : SANGUINE? 88/40 : LIGHT RED? 88/41 : BLUE? 88/43 : LEAF GREEN? 88/44 : YELLOW? 88/45 : BROWN? 88/46 : BLACK? 88/48 : CARMINE? 88/50 : DARK RED? 88/51 : TURQUOISE BLUE? 88/53 : TURQUOISE GREEN? 88/54 : ORANGE? 88/55 : VIOLET? 88/56 : ROSE? 88/57 : AZURE? 88/58 : LILAC? 88/63 : EARTH GREEN? 88/65 : UMBER? 88/75 : SIENNA? 88/88 : LIGHT OCHRE? 88/89 : DARK OCHRE? 88/94 : LIGHT COLD GREY? 88/95 : MEDIUM COLD GREY? 88/96 : DARK GREY? 88/97 : DEEP COOL GREY? 88/98 : PAYNE’S GREYAll colour names/references believed to be correct, at the time of writing.ooOoo?

I love the Stabilo fineliners. They are my pen of choice for adult colouring books. A lot of adult colouring designs have a lot of fine details on them and some pens are really hard to colour inside the lines of smaller areas. These are perfect for intricate designs. On some of the bigger colouring areas it can be harder to not leave gaps, but if you touch it up you'll get there eventually.They are also really pretty for writing with, if you want to colour-code notes or present something a bit more artistically. Though I prefer them for smaller bits of writing, rather than for anything substantial.In regard to the 40 pack:I recommend to anyone who takes their colouring seriously,to ignore the smaller sets and just get this one. I originally bought a set of 20, which was fine for a while then I found there were a few shades I felt I was lacking and started looking for other sets that didn't include too many duplicate colours. I bought the pastels set and then started looking for individual pens I was lacking in shops, which involves luck. In the end I searched Amazon for the 15 colours I was missing individually and found it was much cheaper to just buy the 40 set, as it had all the ones I needed, but now I have a lot of duplictate colours.Stabilo have a range of 41 standard 88 fineliner colours (not including neons). The 40 pen set includes all of the standard colors apart from 59, which is Light Lilac.That annoys me, because they don't have a good selection of purples anyway. (The one they call Purple (19) is more of a dark red/maroon and the one they call Lilac (58) is really magenta. That just leaves Violet (55) as the only true purple in the set. I take my purples seriously.)Why couldn't they make it a 41 colour set? If you want all 41 colours, you'll have to buy the Light Lilac individually or in the pastel colours set. (That one is the proper lilac shade.)Aside from purples, they have a very good range of colours. There are plenty of greys to choose from, which is where most sets fall down. The 40 pack has some great blues, greens and browns, which I haven't been able to find in other sets. Good news for nature colouring fans.I would give 4.5 stars if possible. 4 stars for colour range (would get 5 if it had more purples) and 5 stars for the quality of pens. I have yet to come across another brand as good as these.

Lately I have been doing a lot of art therapy type of colouring ... I find it relaxing and therapeutic especially when I am feeling stressed or sad. The only problem is with this form of relaxation is that you get through a lot of colouring pens and pencils. So when I had the chance to review these fineliner pens from Stabilo I jumped at the chance.The pens come in a fairly robust plastic wallet, however I didn't feel that this was robust enough to store them so I removed the pens and placed them in a small plastic beaker.There are ten fine tipped (0.4mm) water based ink pens in this pack in an array of colours (all different)including:• Black• Yellow• Red• Cerise• Purple• Dark Pink• Royal Blue• Mid Blue• Light Blue• Sea GreenThese ink pens write beautifully and the colours are a good representation of the colours shown on the lids and base of the pens. These are very fine tipped pens so colouring a large area is not really suited to these pens but they are superb for outlining or for doing some of the clever shading techniques that are often used in art therapy colouring. A great feature is that these gel pens dry instantly so there is no smudging of your work, also making these pens suitable for left handed users.Unusually each of these pens are hexagonally shaped which prevent them rolling off the edge of a table … a really good idea.A really nifty little feature that I like is the colours are shown at the top and bottom of the pens so that when you have these pens in a pot you can tell which colour is which, by simply looking down from above preventing the need to remove them from the pot to find the colour that you want.I have used these ink pens for a couple of weeks now and they seem to be lasting well with none of them running out of ink ... so far.

I love these Stabilo fineliners!I bought this particular set approximately five years ago for my other half, a designer, and they are still going strong with regular (though admittedly infrequent) use.They are so good that I have bought several other sets over the years, and in this time only one individual pen has begun to feel different to the day it was new. The ink has not yet started to run out, but the nib itself feels a little less solid than it used to, though it is still very pleasant to use and perfectly functional. This pen is a black pen that I use a lot for writing.All of the pens of this type that I use get used for a combination of general writing and also for drawing projects.I use most of them every day, and the newest of my own pens would be approximately 6 months old.They are very smooth to write and draw with, and the ridged body makes it easy and pleasant to handle. The nib is very fine and the ink is very smooth.The colours are vibrant and mostly long lasting. For example I drew a cartoon portrait of my other half approximately five years ago and this does not seem to have faded at all. In my home office however I have a notice on the wall drawn with these pens and it has begun to fade after approximately 12 months, though it is in direct sunlight.This particular set is particularly handy coming as it does in the roll. This makes it easy to transport and reduces the chances of misplacing a colour. The range of colours in the set is great, and certainly suits me for most projects.I would definitely purchase these again, and in fact I regularly do!

I love stationery, STABILO point 88s aren't my favourite colour pens overall but they are a worthy perhaps necessary addition to any pen lovers collection because what they are good at they are brilliant.The colours are rich and dependable, with deeply pigmented inks no matter the lightness of the colour. Also you don't get wearing part way through the ink and you think it's done only to find it suddenly work again due to bubbles or upright storage like you do with needle or roller type nibs. I find them excellent for mind mapping and planning, sectioning or titling, underlining, emboldening parts of the text and indispensable in a bullet journal or similar diary.They are also great for fine colouring if that's what floats your boat due to the fine tip.The colours in this range include a nice rainbow plus teal, black and pink and then 5 neon highlighter sequence colours which is great for micro highlighting (ie underling in a passage that a traditional highlighter would obliterate due to spacing!) or adding a touch of neon to designsHowever they aren't my favourite pens because the tip design means they eventually cave to the pressure of your writing whether you are heavy handed or not and the 0.4 line graduates to something larger depending on your handedness and angle, I often end up with a sloping tip which widens the point considerably. This is why they aren't my go to note taking pens, I prefer needle or roller tips for that but they are exceptionally useful otherwise.

These are brilliant colour pens, they come in a really handy roll up slipcase that is easy to fit into a bag. I tested the durability of these on my niece who went crazy drawing and I thought she was going to snap the tip, she was leaning down fairly hard . I checked on the damage when she left and it was in perfect condition. I am not sure how this is possible but it held out. still I wouldn't test fate too much just to be safe. my nieces can have the large crappy cheap ones next time and they can punish them as much as they like.There is a good variety of colour including 4 greens and 4 blue shades to add really great effects to some parts if you put some thought into it.there are some really lovely unique shades of purples and a skin colour pen too.These pens are very smooth but just to give you all heads up they need a small bit of warming up before they get into the proper flow. so if they seem a tiny bit hard to draw with at the start don't worry, just keep going and you will find they get nice and soft after a minute or two. when this happens you will experience the full awesomeness of these pens, the colour will come out quickly and evenly, its a wonderful feeling.These pens are not for kids, these are for young adults or for people who know how to handle small tips and can be gentle with them. They can take a lot of abuse but the colour comes out better when you treat them with respect lolfull stars.

I have used Staedtler products for many years to help me highlight elements of my work; mainly handwritten notes, but also periodically to highlight printed piece of work too. I realise that there are highlighter pens for the latter, however, old habits die hard and when writing notes referring to a particular topic, i often switch pens to highlight a particular topic; in my case this can often be key words such as "elderly", "homeless" etc etc.The Stabilo are useful in this respect and whilst not quite matching the Staedtler in terms of quality, they most certainly do in terms of price; where they are only 60% of the cost of their competitor. I rarely sketch things and then always use pencil,therefore my use of these items is generally for manuscript. So far after a couple of weeks regular use, the ink remains as bold as new, similarly the tips remain in pristine condition. They draw a consistenly fine line for highlighting and for writing the ink flows consistently and evenly.In summary, I really like this item, yes they are pastel shades, however they come from a range of 40 colours and therefore I have ordered a similar set in a darker colour and also a packet of the black pens. Move over Staedtler, I feel that I might be saving some cash.

Stabilo are a well-known name when it comes to stationery and with good reason. You can always count on them to produce good quality products that work well and last a decent amount of time.These pens are no exception. They’re fine liners producing a drawn/written line of 0.4mm. They don’t smudge and run well along rulers (which I now understand is due to the tips having a metal edge to them so that it will run smoothly).The colours are great, giving you a range of pens for drawing, writing or whatever you fancy. In this particular packet you get 5 neon pens. I suppose these are just like very thin highlighters. They’re not much use for simply writing on white paper (you can read the text but next to the other colours,they’re not very vibrant) but would be great for adding highlights to drawings, text or for writing on a darker paper or card.It says that you can leave the cap off the pens for a long time without the pen drying out. I personally wouldn’t risk it but I suppose it is reassuring that if you forget to pop the cap back on, you’re not ruining your pens.At the time of this review, this packet of 15 costs just over £10. For what you get, that’s excellent value for money and I would definitely recommend these pens. 5 stars.

I have always tried to use stalibo pens as they are by far the best, however in a well known high street shop this pack was £12, and I couldn't justify the price, so I've only ever bought the mini ones. However I still have 3 of the mini ones left (that I haven't lost) and they still work despite having bought them in 2008! I can't wait to see how long these last, just started using them for some of my notes and they write so smoothly, slight issue if you pause on a letter as you start a word like myself as they blot through the paper slightly. However the colours and standard of ink (the same brightness right up until the end) have no fault.They also come in a pack where the top can be bent backwards to create a stand (please bare in mind that it's the packaging they come and in don't try to rip it open, nor is it the solid plastic ones you get with more expensive packs) however I took them out to put them in my pencil case.I think my favourite thing about these pens is fairly trivial, but the lids are hard to take off, which means they don't fall off in my pencil case a)wasting ink b)staining the material and c)don't leak like felt tips all over the contents of my bag.Highly recommended, especially for the price!

This is a splendid set of ten what I'd call felt tip pens, with the range of colours shown in the Amazon listing.They come in a fairly flimsy plastic wallet and, much to my amusement, apart from having a cap, they look exactly like pencils as they have a hexagonal section. I can imagine some sport with a pencil sharpener on the blunt end if you aren't looking at what you're doing!That said, they produce a lovely fine line, and they would be perfect for school or home use, but their versatility doesn't have to stop there. Because they're water based and easily washed off, mine are going to be used for marking out tiles, floors and walls for toilets, wash basins and so on as I'm a plumber,and that's why I ordered them.It's worth noting that the caps are not solid (you can blow through them) so if a little 'un does something "unexpected", they'll still be able to breathe while you call for the doctor. I'd suggest though that given the size of the caps, some close supervision would be very sensible (or better still, take the cap away and put it in your pocket) if you are allowing a young child to use them.Quite frankly, there's nothing I don't like about them and I'm very happy to recommend them.

I like to write notes in different colours as I find it helps me remember them more, plus it looks nicer! I purchased this Stabilo pack with no previous experience of using this type of pen. You might be thinking - so what its just a pen, and to some extent you would be correct, but if you are writing a lot of notes/information you want to make sure that the pen is comfortable to use! Well I can confirm that not only are these pens comfortable and nice to write with but they also have lovely colours and my notes have certainly brightened up since I started writing with them - makes learning new things much more interesting!The main advantage of these pens for me (apart from the comfort and lovely colours)is that they do not smudge. The way I hold a pen means that my writing hand rests on the paper and normally I end up smudging the ink on the paper and getting ink on my pinky and the rest of my hand. Thankfully with these pens the ink dries straight away so the only way I would get ink on my hands is if I was to draw on them!Overall, I am very impressed with these pens. I will be ordering more and these will certainly be my first choice of pen in the future!

After receiving an adult colouring book for Christmas I needed some fine pens to use.I settled on these after reading many reviews on various products I'm not at all disappointed with these. They arrived in a plastic pocket which is adequate if you only have this set, I have 3 sets of pens now and brought myself a tin to store them all in.There are 30 pens in total; 25 are your normal colour variants and 5 neon colours which are truly brilliant. Each colour is pretty and a true match to what the pen lid dictates.A lot of people commented on how 'scratchy' they were, but I have found that not pressing too hard gives a smooth colouring.The problem of the ink going through the page and onto next page is simply resolved; I use an A4 piece of card which I simply put behind the page I'm colouring. Only helps if your pictures are on one page and not double sided.Overall, I've been using these pens for over 4 weeks now and they are not showing any signs of running out or damage to the nibs. Hence I can happily recommend these to anyone looking for very fine tipped pens for adult colouring or precise drawing.

I love these pens! I have a pack that I purchased in my final year of school for note-taking. I am currently 32, and the ink is just running out now! They have been with me through school, university, and my adult colouring phase, and some of them are still going strong! Absolutely great (seemingly endless) supply of ink!I bought these as they had a greater variety of colours and shades than the standard packs. They did not disappoint- there is a brilliant selection of colours. Not too similar to each other, but still complementary to other colours in the pack.They are as fine as a standard ball point pen, so they are great for writing with. They also are ideal for filling out the tiny details in some colouring books,where standard felt pens are too chunky. Just perfect for detail work.I guess the one thing I may change is the fact that the barrels are all yellow/orange, so you need to look at the cap to identify the colour within. But that is really not much of a problem at all.Overall I thoroughly recommend them to people looking to do close-up detail work, or colourful writing.

Let's look at the downside first, the colours which you receive are random and therefore no two packs are the same, which for some could be a drawback, however, for me, it is the vivid colours which I really appreciate as sadly, I do not have any artistic flair at all and my best efforts could easily be bettered by a child in infant school. Reading and adding comments to report or amending documents, these pens come into their own in my world. The o.4mm points are incredibly fine and allow me to insert comments easily about text, even above single line spaced work.Additionally, these are great for sketching out work,which for me is often diagrammatic in nature and therefore the range of bold colours helps me greatly to explain the drawing; most important though for me is that despite the fine point, with a light hand, these are great to write with. I tend to use different colours to break up the context of the text e.g. between speakers at conference, or to note points in a discussion.Great pens and worth every penny, only bettered by the Staedtler equivalent.

I got these for my children to use and they've been having a good time with them. The pens have fine (0.4mm) tips meaning they are more for writing or drawing lines rather than colouring in larger areas. The makers say they are smudge-free and we haven't managed to prove them wrong yet. They come in a plastic wallet case and there are 15 of them. The pens are hexagonal so that you can grip them well.On the downside maybe is that my youngest (who is 4) seems to want to use these to colour in big areas but these are not for that. I'll have to get him more felt tips for that. Also the inner cardboard insert says "each pack is unique" implying that the pen colours in each pack are different which is not the case.I believe it is the design on the cardboard that is different each time. I don't see why they are confusing the customer, nor do I see the benefit in having a uniquely designed bit of cardboard for these pens.But overall these will be useful for my 7-year-old in particular to do nice colourful pieces of homework for her weekly learning log.
