Amazon Basics Fine Tip Point Permanent Markers for Office, School, and Home Use, Black, 12 Pack

I bought these as a gift for my son to use for some of his art projects.There are a variety of colors and I like how bright they are. When you open the box, you see that they all look good together, the colors complement each other. It was a great price, and they are pretty durable, and have good quality, not like other cheap ones that I purchased in the past.

These work perfectly and what a bargain. Many colors and they look to be of good quality. The ink is bright. Highly recommend, especially at the price

These work perfectly, high quality, deep colors, doesn't smear, and it was great price.

So I expected a bit more from this markers based on the reviews I read. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that some of these are not nearly the vibrant colors I expected. I went through this box as soon as I received them because I was working on an art project. I found about half of the box to be more of a pastel marker, and the other half to be a vibrant, bold marker like a Sharpie. You can see in the photos. When you are using them to color in shapes it can be difficult to get a smooth color without streaks in it. Also, when filling in these shapes, I went over them a couple of times to smooth out the color, and this caused some bleed through on to the paper beneath the one I was marking. I do like the fine tips of these, as they seem to hold up well, and you can easily write legibly with them. It is nice that they come in a cardboard box that can be used for storage, and being a Prime customer I got them quite quickly. I think these markers would be quite suitable for most needs, but I wouldn’t consider them to be a high quality marker for a more serious project. As expensive as things are these days, these are a reasonable price and would be a good option for back to school or to have around an office. All in all a decent set of markers.

Great price, marks just as bold and good as brand names, lasts a little bit longer than brand name.

These are great pens, exactly as described. I use them in the office and they perform perfectly. The ink doesn’t smudge and they dry quickly. Just what I was looking for!

It’s good for the price point but they don’t last very long. They tend to dry out pretty quickly and run out of ink. It’s okay for the quality but not a complete dupe for sharpies.

Reasonable price and just as durable as other brands.
