[Pen/Pencil Review] Hauser 10-Piece Ballpoint Pen Set – 0.7mm
I love hitting places like Daiso for so much random things at ridiculously low prices. This set of pens was one of those lovely finds. This is the Hauser 10-piece ballpoint pens with 0.7mm points.
The Hauser pens are classic stick ball point pens in a rainbow of colors. These pens are 5.5″ long capped and 6.5″ with the cap posted. The caps are all white with the barrels being color-match to the oil-based ink. The pens are plastic with a three-panel textured grip. The cap posts on both ends of the pen securely. The clip is solid, molded plastic.
The oil-based ink is rich with the various colors – brown, black, red, orange, green, light green, blue, light blue, lavender, and violet. The 0.7mm points give a solid line. The metal ballpoint is smooth and not scratchy with a good line – even with the lighter colors.
They’re fun to have around. And they’re very affordable if you have access to a Daiso. This pack was $1.50 and more than worth the price. I do appreciate the fact that these manufacturers like their finer points and we have access to them. This way, if you lose one – or it’s swiped along the way – no one is out anything. If you like a wide array of colors, this is the set for you.
The numbers:
1. How does it work? – 1 – They’re a basic plastic, stick pen with decent oil-based ink and a decent point.
2. Grip and feel – 0.5 – The barrels aren’t that thick, but the grip is a three-panel indention that makes a touch on the narrow side, but it’s not bad.
3. Material – 1 It’s a decent quality plastic and metal pen. The cap posts securely.
4. Overall Design – 1 – They’re basic, plastic pen with a good cap and ink. They are what they are and good at it.
5. Price Point – 1 – They’re so very inexpensive. $1.50 for all 10 is hard to beat. Daiso is amazing like that.
