These are the only dry erase pens that I have found that can be left on a board for several days, or weeks, and still wipe cleanly off. Other pens leave nasty smears. It usually isn't the board, but the markers.

Great little markers and you get a lot of bang for your buck. Pretty much any color you would need is included.

I use dry-erase boards often and have been very unhappy with most pens. I have no idea why they even make those pale yellow and light pink markers and such. If you can't see the writing, they're worthless. These are very visible. Making packs of the bold colors is a GREAT idea. I've bought them before and these are great. Expo pens seem to last forever, too. This is a great product, and I'll buy it again.

Bought these markers to use on my daughters workbook pages that I had put into page protectors. They are a little thin for the whiteboard in my classroom, but great for smaller boards and projects. Fun colors. Dark enough and easy to wipe.

They have nice color, are for sure low odor & have a nice fine point & I received them faster than the projected date.

The first order arrived damaged but was replaced fairly without much bureaucracy and I was not in a hurry so I did not mind the extra wait until the new items arrived. Good Product too.

The kids love all the different colors they can use. The markers work great.

My kids are now 5 and 2.5 years old, but I have used these Expo dry erase markers since they were 1 year old.

For kids you want to use the thin ones so their small hands can grip them. The other bigger kind it too bulky for them.

I teach them drawing and letter and number writing on white boards and books made for dry erase markers. I also highly recommend the use of white boards with the full and dotted lines that guide children writing. I also use regular pencils, but I and they love the dry erase markers where they can easily erase and retry.

I wish Expo and the other dry erase manufacturers would come up with an invention to remind kids to put back the cap on the marker after each use!

I was pretty disappointed with these. Yes, they are low odor, which I guess is why the ink in these is not as good. A few of these were good, but some of them were just so light that they barely show up on the whiteboard. I bought these to study, since I like to color-code things. However, some of these were just unusable because I could barely see them. The pink, orange, and green didn't show up very well at all. I rarely use them. The red looked like more of a dark pink. The black, purple, and brown showed up well. The blue wasn't very dark, but was still pretty visible on the whiteboard. They come off the board very cleanly though, which is nice and probably also due to the less concentrated ink.

I love these bullet tip EXPO markers. The write fine enough to use on smaller boards and the colors are all great and show up very well. In my limited use with them they erase very well and leave minimal residue after multiple uses that is easily cleaned with an EXPO brand cleaning solution. I would buy again.
