Love these pens, but want refills!!! January 30, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love the Signo 207 pens--they're the best gel pens I've ever used. What I don't love is not being able to get refills for any of them except blue and black! :(
short life, then stops w 30% or more ink still in pen December 31, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Disappointing results w surprising short life and defective engineering, an entire order of these pens consistently stopped working with up to half of ink remaining inside - attractive, but refills near impossible to find and dubious value overall.
Great Pens October 22, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I really like the colors and how they write. That they also help with check fraud is really icing on the cake for me - that's not why I bought them. All of the colors are very dynamic, it's great to use these.
Very nice pen. June 26, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I work for a company that sells pens and came across this at a vendor show last summer. I like the feel and the way it writes. I haven't been able to get any more of these through work so I purchased this set at Amazon. I think you will be pleased.
Outstanding pen for nearly any writing chore June 14, 2007 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I'll start this review by saying that I'm obsessive-compulsive about certain things in my daily life. I'm a confessed pen junkie. I spend more time analyzing and picking out an ink pen than I do writing with them. I'm very partial to the color green, and I go out of my way to use green ink in everything that I write.
My pen of choice for green ink used to be a Waterman fountain pen. I never liked the pressure that I'd have to write with when using ballpoint pens, so the ease of using a fountain pen was the main selling point when I paid some serious cash for a fountain pen. It cost me about $100 to buy a few years ago (you pay for the quality), but it was a hassle to carry around with me and I had to mail order the 2 oz. bottles of green ink for refills. After a while, the pen just started to leak. The replacement for this pen was found in short order - with one major flaw that I'll highlight in a bit.
Everyone around me was always saying how well Uni-ball made gel ink pens and roller ball pens that required minimal pressure to write with. I tried a few, and was sold on these 207 pens, as well as the Vision Elite pens that they also make. The 207 pens write without blots or sporadic ink flow. They require minimal pressure, and they don't dry out like rollerball pens do - hence you can get them with a click mechanism instead of having a cap required. Now, the Uni-ball 207 is the only pen that I'll use for any writing that I have to do.
There are two major flaws with the green ink 207 pens, one of which has been fixed. First flaw was that the green ink 207 pens were never sold separate. I'd always have to buy the 8-pack and then just throw away the other 7 colors that I didn't want. I'd give them out to friends, co-workers, and art students, but it was still a hassle to pay about $17 for a single disposable pen. This was fixed when Wal-Mart began to sell the green and blue ink 207 pens as individual "impulse purchase" items in the checkout lanes of their stores. Which brings me to the second flaw of the 207 pens - green ink is not offered in the 0.5mm sized point. You can get the 0.5mm tip sized in a multi-pack that has 2 black, 1 red, and 1 blue pen - but no green. Right now I'm stuck with using the 0.7mm medium sized tip for my green 207 pen, but I hope that Uni-ball listens to their customer demand and starts offering a 0.5mm tip size with the green ink.
