The All-Star costs a little more but is well worth the investment given the superior quality over the Safari.

Love the quality and the aesthetics of this pen.

amazing quality, writes amazing

Terrible quality!

Feels flimsy and poor quality

The build quality of the pen is excellent even though it's a plastic pen

Great quality and wonderful deal for the price

Nib quality is good, you can write very forceful words

Aside from the slightly scratchy quality, it just feels nice to write with and puts the fun back into writing things down the old fashioned way!

But the pen seemed to be of questionable quality

Let me feel happy is good quality and price is the reason why I always choose amazon

It's very inexpensive and the quality of the pen is great.

excellent pen, very comfortable, great quality for the price

The quality of the nib is excellent and writes very well

It's extra fine point makes perfect imprint on the fine quality papers, specially the daily diaries

Bad quality

Great quality, exactly what I expected.

Afraid to try, might not get the same quality.

Then pen has been very good quality wise and actually looks very cool!

It also produce too much ink, so even with relatively good quality paper, you can only write on one side, waste a lot of ink

Good to use, nice design, great quality, I love it!

The build quality is great and it comes with an ink cartridge

Not having too much money, but still appreciating good pens, I like the cost and the quality you get for it

I'll probably be using the converter with top quality ink in a the future when at home, but traveling with a bottle of ink does not seem practical

Still consistent quality and extremely smooth writing

The Pros- Great build quality have dropped it many times on concrete, still works

Lamy is a good quality product which gives you the ability to change nibs without having to buy a whole different fountain pen

While the design is not as artful as more expensive pens, this is practical, good quality, and made of sturdy plastic (not flimsy stuff like disposable pens)

good quality

I initially purchased a Lamy for my girlfriend who had been on the prowl for a quality, inexpensive fountain pen

The quality is also excellent

The quality of the pen is spectacular plus it is very easy to purchase the ink

Great price and very good quality.

But for perfect quality and least effort, least friction least tiring (because of nice weight balance)... go with these suggestions

This pen is cheap (for a fountain pen) and good quality, and is perfect for my student lifestyle.

While this pen cannot compare with the top quality pens it can definatly stand beside them

I believe all the other reviewers had good experiences, but apparently Lamy does not have consistent quality control

The nib is very good quality with and writes smoothly with a constant ink flow

I did a lot of research looking for a good quality pen which wasn't going to break the

Quality: Mediocre

First fountain pen, and I have really enjoyed the feel and quality of the writing

Love the quality and style!!!

This fountain pen is great in that the writing quality is very good for a relatively inexpensive price

Great quality and cost effective when compared to disposable gel pens.

Good quality.

It's chunky plastic although the quality is superb

, I think that this is great for teens as that is good quality and it is not overly expensive.

At least a good quality pen.

It's also priced accordingly: the Lamy is probably the most affordable, accessible fountain pen of decent quality out there

I guess that I should expect top quality given the price.

Not much to say... great pen, write great - save money and buy this if you're looking for a good quality pen.

I've read some comments complaining that it wrote "scratchy," and I can attest that this is like due to the usage of poor quality inks

Top quality, would order again in a heartbeat

Good quality!

Since I have bought a couple of these as gifts for my friends, I can say that the quality of the pen is very very consistent

The plastic is high quality and the cap works really great

I write without issue in Moleskine and Livescribe notebooks, as well as in college assignment books and journals, classroom and corporate handouts, and on generic 3-ring binder paper

I did that as well as giving the pen a good shake to get the ink flowing and it worked like magic

I prefer the cartridge system/nib in this one as well as it seems to not leak as much as the pilot ones do.

The result is that it doesn't feel nearly as smooth as it would otherwise, and it doesn't write nearly as consistently.

The point is I love him just as much as I would love a child produced by my biological brother.

The ink that comes with the pen(in my case a blue disposable cartridge) is kind of light and doesn't write nearly as well as the noodlers.

Also the line won't look as elegant as with other fountain pens.

A minimal amount of pressure is require to mark paper and it does not bleed through as bad as I thought it would

Its nice, but does not write nearly as well as my pilot metropolitan (cheaper and made of metal)
