Faber-Castell Faber Castell Fountain Pen Blue Design Medium Nib + 6 Ink Cartridges, School+, F149811

Ink cartridge is small... Need to refill often but wonderful pen. We all use it in routine and love it. The ink pen feel is amazing and no gel or ball pen can ever beat it. Fab product just wish ink cartridge capacity could be increased.

I LOVED the pen. It is very good for writing and easy to use. I bought it 2 times and both times it worked perfectly. I love the grip and the overall size of the pen. I suggest that you buy for kids. I recommend this to anybody who uses fountain pens :).

Happy to write with this pen

My son loves this pen. He likes how smooth it writes. He says it helps him to improve his handwriting as it's comfortable to hold too.

Great Product

The cap of the pen does not close. My daughter was uable to use the pen.

This pen is comfortable to hold but the ink doesn't flow smoothly or look strongly colored on the page.

Good quality

Excellent

Smooth writing and good amount of included ink cartridges. Maybe nicer exterior options?

A really excellent, cheap (in the best sense) pen that flows well, has a consistently good nib (I have 7 of them, and they all write well), and sits comfortably in the hand despite being plastic and light to hold. It shows what can be achieved at a really brilliant price. When I want to jot something down or write at leisure I reach for one of these pens. Excellent.

It could be better.

I bought this pen because I wanted a blue fountain pen that was affordable to add to my collection. I thought the nib was available as a fine nib and I thought the pen was metal. I personally prefer metal fountain pens. When I received this pen I found that the nib was medium and the pen body was made from flimsy plastic with a rubber grip section which I personally do not like. I thought a Faber Castell pen at this price point would at least have some redeeming qualities. However, there are major ink flow issues with this pen, ink flow is inconsistent and the pen constantly stops and starts. I'm very disappointed in this pen. The least anyone can expect from a fountain pen regardless of the price point is for it to have consistent ink flow, even if some tuning is required to get the consistent ink flow, especially when it is purchased from a brand like Faber Castell. I'm very disappointed in this pen. Also, I don't like the grip section. Fountain pens at the same price point but of much better quality are available from other suppliers. I would not buy another Faber Castell fountain pen again. The quality doesn't live up to the brand name and it is not value for money.
