Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2025Style: Early Childhood SetVerified PurchaseMuy bueno para aprender a escribir mejor
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2019Style: Training KitVerified PurchaseI purchased these to allow me to continue use the pens & pencils I so love, as I have joint hypermobility that caused a carpal boss and bone spur in my right hand that affects my ability to write (as well as doing anything else on the planet). So my reason for purchasing these was to correct my poor writing posture that was exacerbating my finger and hand pain. Writing became extremely painful in less than 20 minutes on a good day, and my death grip on the writing utensil wasn't helping. Proper posture and therefor "PenAgain" was recommended by my physical therapist, but as I said I wanted to use my personal arsenal. So I purchased these with high hopes.
Unfortunately, they aren't helping much. They are made of very sticky, thick and unstretchable rubber. Well, they stretch long wise, but getting them on and off of a pencil or pen is impossible. I broke a mechanical pencil trying to rip the damn thing off to place it elsewhere!! The hole in the grip is so small and so inflexible that you have to apply exorbitant amounts of pressure to get it half an inch up the pencil! It causes pain before it comes anywhere near its destination. And taking it off? Prepare for a wrestling match with a piece of rubber. It can take a few minutes just to "slide" the thing off. The rubber is so sticky and the hole is so narrow that it refuses to move in any direction, and seems to suction to the pencil and create an unrelenting, immovable seal.
I tried stretching out the first off the three step teaching tool on a random pen for a few days. If that made any sort of difference, it was unnoticeable. I am considering taking a hair dryer and a speculum to the little bastards and stretching them out that way. We'll see.
As for the tools themselves, they do help me keep good posture, which is why the 3 stars. They are preeeettty low quality, but these were very cheap so you get what you pay for; however, the rubber they are made of are sticky parasites on a constant hunt for hairs, dirt, and other fibers to add to their general unattractiveness.
I will keep giving them a chance and attempting to make them more pliable, but if you are someone who doesn't mind the cost and enjoys the convenience of a new pen/cil in the form of PenAgain, I recommend that instead.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2024Style: Training KitVerified PurchaseMy 4th grader has always had bad handwriting and a terrible pencil grip (he uses his thumb and ring finger) that we have slowly tried to correct with no luck. Now that he has been doing more cursive at school, he is really struggling due to his improper pencil grip. I ordered a few different training grips for him to try over summer break and this was the hands down winner - he instantly was able to really FEEL how to hold the pencil properly and after a few tries he could hold the pencil properly without the guides (but he still needs them because he will slowly gravitate back to his improper grip). The 3 step system is great because we were able to use the crossover to start with over the summer, and by the time school started he was able to use the more basic pencil grip so it doesn't look like a 'training' tool in class. Now his little brothers use them for fun and the basic pencil grip is more comfortable for their little hands! Wish I had bought these much sooner.
