Crafty Croc Gel Pens for Adult Coloring Books - Refillable Ink Gel Pen Set With Case - Includes 96 Artist Quality Coloring Pens: Glitter, Metallic, Pastel (1 White), Neon - Soft Comfort Grips

This product did not disappoint. For quite some time my wife has been interested in buying a bulk-sized payload of gel pens for her adult coloring book pleasures. I sneakily reviewed product after product and ordered this for her for Christmas. Her eyes lit up when she opened it. The product came on time and exactly as described. The packaging is quite nice as the box is very sturdy and has a handle on it for carrying ease. Even knowing the number of gel pens in this package, she still was wowed by how many color options there are available with this product. Very pleased. The only downfall and this is just the relationship with gel pens, is that on occasion some of the ink is difficult to get out. If you wet the tip of your finger (I know what you're thinking, and I'm not going down that gutter) and roll the ballpoint of the pen around for a second then find scrap paper and roll it around again, the ink comes through. I think gel ink is just so thick, it occasionally finds trouble coming through the ballpoint. Otherwise, such a delight and we've already spent hours coloring away. Thank you!

I must say that I am usually not that impressed with art mediums like gel pens in general. While I like them, a lot of sets have some that don't color very well, or they don't dry very fast, so smearing is a real problem. These advertised that they don't smear due to something in the ink that makes it dry fast and they weren't kidding. I colored a little mark on a test paper and no smear immediately after applying. I love these. In addition to that, these so far although I have not tried all of the pens yet, the ones I have used are smooth and color extremely well. If I find any that aren't as good or don't work I will come here to update. For all colorists who keep pulling their hair out of their head due to smearing these are a Godsend. Truly awesome. I can't recommend them enough. Best gel pens I have had since I started investing in them this year. When these run out I will be buying more. I hope their claim that these have more ink than other sets proves true yet, only time will tell on that. I told my sister and she put them on her wish list. Guess I know what I will be buying her for Christmas this year lol.

I'm picky about pens. It doesn't matter if they're ballpoint, gel, fountain, space pen, whatever. I like them to feel and perform a certain way in my hand as I write or draw. I freely admit I am a pen snob. I understand. Most pens don't measure up. Most pens are simply tolerable. Some I intensely dislike, most are just... eh. But occasionally you'll pick one up that surprises you and makes you remember why you love coloring. And that's what happened with my new set of Crafty Croc Gel Pens for Adult Coloring Books. I'd previously purchased some of their liquid chalk markers (I'm also picky about those, unsurprisingly) and I liked them a lot so I thought I'd try out their pens. Please understand, I had a lovely collection of gel pens. I didn't need to buy more but since I'm always on the lookout for a possible new coloring love, I couldn't pass up the chance to try Crafty Croc's pens. Well, my previous collection of pens looked just as lovely when I donated it to my children's school. Because there is no more room in my heart for other pens since Crafty Croc has come along. They solved one of my biggest problems with having a large collection of pens right out of the box. Because it IS the box. It's got a freaking handle on it. This huge 96-pen set fits into a box that is very easy to tote around with you. It's perfection. And the pens feel good in your hand and work wonderfully. I had 2 pens not begin writing smoothly immediately but they took just a moment to get rolling. Ha, rolling... anyway. Every single other pen drew almost perfectly straight out of the box. Beautiful, vibrant colors, and not one pen that was drippy or runny. And to top it all off, THEY ARE REFILLABLE. I'm actually super excited to use some up quickly so I can see how the refills work. So I'm happy. Super glittery, sparkly rainbow, crazy happy about my new coloring pens from Crafty Croc. Try them - you won't be disappointed!!

The Crafty Croc gel pens are a nice and easy solution to your drawing needs. -------------------------------------------------------- The design of the Crafty Croc gel pens are pretty generic. Regular gel pen design, with an added finger grip, which is nice. They feel as sturdy as any other generic pen, and none have broke. -------------------------------------------------------- The function of the Crafty Crox gel pens is normal gel pen function. It colors very well, and none have dried out. The colors are relatively vivid, and are close to what's on the pen. However, when you stack the trays of pens in the box, they slant a little, making the box not a breeze to close. -------------------------------------------------------- Overall, the Crafty Croc gel pens are good and cheap drawing solutions, however, the box makes them not perfect.

I never used gel pens much. I always found them annoying because they skipped so bad when I would write with them. Since I know so many people are using them for the coloring books, I thought I'd give them a try figuring they must be better now. I found these on Prime Day and couldn't pass up the deal. What a great buy this was!! These pens are great!! They write so smoothly, and I love that I have so many colors to pick from. I can even use them in my Cricut machine. The white one doesn't seem to work as well as the others, but I can't complain when there are 95 others that are amazing.

Great gel pens. It took a while to get used to which pens were what, i.e., glitter, metallic, etc. After studying the caps I realized you can tell them apart from the top of the cap. I do not use the case they came in for storage. Snapping those pens in and out and finding the right color was a chore and ended up with numerous sleeves of pens laying around. I prefer to store them horizontally in pen holders where I can tell from a glance what kind of pen it is and the color. Also these pens do not bleed through bible pages for journaling. The darker colors will shadow somewhat, but that is expected on thin bible pages.

Pros: Love the box, packaged in a well organized fashion. Presentation is great. Cons: Biggest con is in the review title. There is a good disparity in the ink levels of the pens, even among same category. But many are only halfway up the visible barrel (from the top of the foamy grip to the end of the inner tube.) I'm not great at eyeballing measurements, but many appear to be more than an inch, even an inch and a half down from the end of the tube. The info on the page, as well as the box, say that there is 35% more ink - yikes - really?? I can't imagine what it was before this. Many sets offer a set of refills, more pens, and a lower price point. This one, with 35% more ink to start with, seemed like a good bet. Not so much. Especially knowing how fast gel pens go... I'm bummed right out of the gate. Box looked like it may have been previously opened: seal was wrinkled and lifted. Inside all looked well; only two pens were out of place, so may or may not have been opened. One pen is cracked and the labeling is trailing off like it was loaded in the machine wrong. Haven't tried to use it yet, as it is a gift for the kids, so I don't know if it will affect function. No feedback yet on use, as it is a gift. Though I'm a little concerned about offering it as such, in that the ink levels suggest a potentially disappointing experience. With several children to share, 96 pens filled to 35% more capacity seemed like it would be ample. Not so sure now...

I recently purchased this set of Crafty Croc Gel Pens which arrived on schedule and intact. I absolutely Love them!!! they are all different colors no duplicates. I do a lot of adult color and drawing as well and these pens are amazing!! they do not bleed through the paper they go on very smooth no skipping etc.....and the colors really PoP on any artwork or writings. My only problem is sometimes I can never decide which color to use because they are all so pretty. If your trying to decide if you want to buy these be sure you do. I promise you will not be disappointed at all.
