I like the way the pen writes but gave it the score because it leaks.

I love the way it feels and to also be convertible

Love the way it writes

I like how it feels in my hand, I like the way it looks, and I love the smooth flow of ink.

Love the way this pen writes the only design complaint I have is that the cap does not stay on the pen well unless you really ram it down on the body.

I love the way this pen writes

It's a very satisfying way to gain a little zen in an always-connected-so-never-present world.

but sometimes i find that the converter that the pen comes with does not fill all the way and also sometimes the pen will leak excess ink through the nib

I do like the way it feels and writes, but like other reviewers have noted - it leaks.

( A screw cap wouldn't work as well this way. )

This probably something everyone who uses fountain pens knows, but since this was my first fountain, I learned the hard way.

It looks classic and writes that way as well

Fountain pen users that want to use bottled ink should know the easiest way to get these pens inked with whatever ink you prefer is by using a syringe to inject it

Me, however, I've come to prefer the way that more "Modern" pens such as the Platinum Plaisir effortlessly glides across any paper as if it were a Pen-Ninja

( A screw cap wouldn't work as well this way. )

It writes extra fine, the way I like it, and the ink flow is smooth.

I love the way this pen feels while holding

it's a fun way to try out fountain pen ownership.

This is my first fountain pen, and I really love the way it writes

they're affordable!I have a Pilot that cost me nearly 3 times as much, and it's way less reliable.

I absolutely love the way this pen writes, but I think mine was a lemon

This product came to me with a failed refill cartridge 😞 and no reliable way to store the converter or an extra refill

The five stars do NOT mean that the Pilot Metropolitan is the equal of pens at three and four times the price, but it's good enough to be the only pen necessary for people with student loans, and it's an excellent way to find out if you lake fountain pens.

If you wonder if fountain pens are for you, this is a great way to start

and then the pen is a good way to make a mess

I love the way this pen writes and feels

I also love the way it writes

I enjoy the way the pen feels in my hand

Love the way it writes

and I like the way it writes

She really likes the way it writes a lot

I love the way it writes

They don't allow offsite links on reviews but if you search on Youtube, you can find a video showing the right way.

I love the way the pen flows

This product came to me with a failed refill cartridge 😞 and no reliable way to store the converter or an extra refill

I have been using it extensively, and i love the way it feels and writes.

I honestly think a lot of fountain pens are bulky or gaudy but this pen is absolutely sublime I love the way it looks

A sad way to end the day.

I do love the way it

You get ink on your fingers from time to time, but I love the way it writes.

It works the way a pen clip should

I slightly prefer the way this writes to the LAMY Safari

Way more economical than using cartridges, and you have the whole world of fountain pen ink waiting to flow through your pen

The pen feels great in the hand and extended writing sessions are not so fatiguing as with my super fat cigar shaped fountain pens, which I also love

The nib is a joy, thin to my tastes, with an almost impossible to miss sweet spot

Smooth as can be and getting better the more I use it

The grip is nice and wide, so my hand doesn't cramp up as much as it would with your basic Bic

I think this, plus a very fine emory board will make it just about perfect as the nib itself is still a little rough under magnification
