Verified Purchase
I was hesitant about this because I haven’t used a multi-pen in ages, but my
pencil case was getting crowded and knowing it was Hi-Tec-C…well, I figured it
wouldn’t hurt to try.
Best. Decision. Yet!
I’ve got it loaded up with two of my most-used pen colors, the 0.3 mechanical
pencil component, and the eraser component, but I periodically swap colors as
needed. Seriously looking at getting another barrel to keep more colors on-hand,
but I can’t decide which! I do wish JetPens sold the cute little Coleto cases
I’ve found online, but so far I’ve only found them in 0.5 pen nibs that hold
10, and I use the 0.3 and got the 18-pack of colors so…it is what it is. Gives
me the opportunity to make my own!
So far my only actual issue has been that the grip on this pen body had a bubble
near the surface that popped, and now it has been peeling. It’s a great stim
sometimes, but it definitely is a manufacturing defect that could’ve been
avoided.
Otherwise, I’m in love! The slimmer profile of the 500 model is perfect for me
and my tiny hands, and the orange is awesome. Wish there were more color options
for the metal pen bodies since I appreciate the professional look, but it’s
not a huge deal.
If you’re thinking about this, go for it! Your pencil case will thank you. :D
