4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, January 11, 2004

These are pretty good highlighters. They aren't bright like most highlighters, so they look more like markers. Unlike most liquid highlighters, these dry fast, so you don't have to worry about ink smearing onto the facing page.

Spring Action Chisel Tip: The tip of the highlighter is chisel shaped, like most highlighters. There is a spring inside the barrel, so if you accidentally press too hard, the tip will adjust so you don't damage it.

I am a teacher at an elementary school and I like these Zazzle highlighters very much. I personally consider them THE BEST. The very first set I purchased, I used each color multiply times a day and they have lasted me for 2+ years. I just purchased 2 new sets and there is still a touch of ink in the tubes of the older set. They do not dry out quickly like other name brand highlighters. If you are careful and do not press down hard when you use them, the tips do not break down & the ink comes out minimial and does not run. To use them properly, simply highlight or press ever-so-lightly. Not much effort at all. Of course, in any liquid-filled product, you must replace the cap each time or the tip will dry out, briefly, depending on how long the cap was left off. A good shake or a slight touch of water will bring them bring them back to life. They are great highlighters with a long life!!!

These are excellent highlighters. There is however a little learning curve with respect to how you use them. The criticism of some that they soak through the page and blotch so that you can't turn the page until the ink dries is related to a poor application. If you use them with a light and steady stroke, they never bleed through the page; if you use a lingering stroke, a heavy application, or if you start and stop again with a lot of pressure on the pen tip, they will blotch and even soak through. It is only a matter of correct technique to fix that problem. These pens are not very good for glossy pages however; for example, magazine pages don't absorb the ink very well and you do have to wait for the ink to dry. For most books, text books, and typical paper pages, I have never had a probem with them soaking through, and I have used these pens for years (I read constantly and underline something on almost every page). The different colors can be matched, doubled up, or covered over each other to create new colors, and lightly applied they still don't soak though. They also won't work real well as Bible hightlighters though; most Bibles have very thin pages, and the ink does show through. With a light steady application, they go on very bright, don't fade over time, and are pleasing to the eyes. I want my underlining to look good, not messy, and these are the best pens I have found so far, and I have tried a great many brands.
