Uni Jetstream 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen and 0.5 mm Pencil, Bordeaux Body (MSXE510007.65)

I recently discovered how great the Uni Jetstream pen is, so the multi-pen was the next step. This pen/pencil is awesome - it has a nice weight, it's very comfortable, and the .7 mm pen inks are really smooth. The .5 pencil in this is really helpful - I switch from pen to pencil for work and home use. I had to find a YouTube video on how to get the pencil lead out though- you click the pocket clip repeatedly and it will drop down. I used to like a heavy Cross Bailey pen but couldn't find ink that I liked. So glad I found this Uni Multipen!

I use many different pens through out the day/week/year. I don't know, I guess I have a problem. But now that I've discovered Jetstream makes a "parker style (G2)" refill that I can use in many of my existing pens and buy more pen options now, I've exclusively been using nicer, metallic more profesionally options. So while I still switch pens all the time, they're the same inside because they're all Jetstreams. It's the only ballpoint I can and will use now. But this review is about this particular Jetstream pen. The smoothness and darkness of the colors is all there as with any Jetstream. I did buy refills for this as this pen is my workhorse used at work. I take notes in meetings and color code the sections and topics. I hated the "other" brands of multi-color pens because in the end, they were the standard oil-based ballpoint (clumps, skips, have to press hard, not smooth) and I would quit using them after a few tries. This Jetstream solved that. If you like or are familiar with Jetstream pens, this is no different, except for the larger size and choice of colors with a simple click. If you don't know what Jetstream is, then give this or any of their other pens (by Uni-Ball) a try. It's the only ballpoint worth using.

The pen has a nice weight to it, and writing quality is nice. Very easy to use

I like taking multi colored notes, but used to I get laughed at for carrying 30 pens in my pocket at any given time.Enter the uni JETSTREAM 4&1. Now instead of carrying 3 pens around with me, I've got one - and a bonus color... AND a mechanical pencil. Take that, people who used to laugh at me. Now I'm finally cool enough.Pros:+ The colors red, blue, and black (not a color, I know) are all buttery smooth to write with+ So much functionality in so small a space+ 4 colors AND a mechanical pencil... and eraser?!?Cons:- The color green doesn't write very smoothly. It's gotten a little better with use, but it may just be something with green ink. It's definitely not a deal breaker.- The mechanical pencil is a bit clunky to use (truth be told it took me awhile to realize it was the clip portion of the pen that did that). It sometimes retracts when I'm looking to click out some more lead. Also, I am confident I will one day break off the clip, just like I typically do.Really, neither one of those is a deal breaker, and if you're considering getting this, it's well worth it.... plus, all the cool kids are getting one.

This is a great pen that I've been using for years! I first found it while I was in nursing school and it's great for categorizing your notes. The pen writes very smooth and has a nice presentation. Everyone I let borrow the pen always threaten to steal it. The pencil that comes with it also writes very well. You can buy refills on here if you type in the pen name so one of these can last you a very long time, so long as you're not as hard on pens as I am (this is my third one).

I've tried many other multipens, I keep coming back to this one as the best.

excellent, if you have specific questions please feel free to email me. writes so smooth--I am very picky about pens and this was a risk I thought bc I am never happy with multicolored pens. Since they can be so useful (esp for nurses) I thought I would take a chance based on the good reviews and the look of the pen. No regrets. Love pencils too and so far the pencil is good too. No complaints. I was so impressed that I showed it to my son who is left handed and the first thing he did was the smudge test and I laughed--it passed. Will update as time goes on.update:I lost my pen! very unlike me to misplace a needed item. After giving it a few days to turn up, I ordered another one a few minutes ago because I liked it so much. Then went down to get a load of laundry out of the dryer and whatayaknow, there it was in two pieces. :( I put it back together and gave it a doubtfilled try, and dang! it worked just as before! Through a washer and dryer cycle, no leaks, went back together and works like a $10 pen should. Thought you should know.

I take a lot of notes and like to have off-setting colors to draw attention to important items. I have always really liked these pens. I will say it seems they come in higher quality batches or lower. By that I mean I have purchased multiple pens at the same time and they lasted years and were highly functional with little or no demise.However I have also purchased them and the mechanical operations were less than satisfactory. Having said that, the last two times I have purchased, the quality has been good
