    Sharpie 28010 Accent Pen-Style Retractable Highlighter, Fluorescent Blue, 12-Pack

    • The tips of the pink and red sharpie were damaged to the point that they were not usable
    • These are great, because the tip is retractable.
    • The tips were uncomfortable to color or write with.
    • I love the idea of the retractable markers, but they have a weird tip
    • These are great for highlighting, but the tip is strong enough that if you hold it another way you can write stuff down without it all looping together
    • they are a little 'stiff' at first, but 'break in' to a comfortable marker fairly quicklycolor tip.
    • The retractable tip works well - after several months the pens are all still "juicy" and work great.
    • I know the tips will not be so fine after a few uses, but that doesn't bother me.
    • Cons:-Thinner tip than standard highlighter-Blue and Purple are two dark
    • They're pretty fine chisel tip, I'm the type the when highlighting a paragraph I like to have the highlighter lines touch when highlighting multiple lines, with this its very hard without creating multiple dark areas
    • Because of the relatively fine chisel tip, there simply cannot be as much capacity as those huge highlighters.. for you I recommend Staetler Textsurfer Classic Staedtler Textsurfer Classic Highlighter, Chisel Tip, Blue/Green/Orange/Pink/Purple/Red/Turquoise/Yellow, 8 per Set (364WP8)
    • It seems silly, but I buy these because of the no cap/retractable tip.
    • The regular pocket style chisel tip Sharpie highlighters are much better, with a smoother tip and glide across the page
    • Very nice tips!
    • I have also purchased the Sharpie liquid highlighters which are also better than these (in my opinion), and offer the same array of colors as these retractable ones but are definitely more highlighter-like than marker-like and have a very smooth tip and glide.
    • Also, these in particular don't dry out because there's a little internal flap that covers the tip when the tip is retracted.
    • Love the color options and the retractable tips!
    • The tips are slanted well and overall really like these.
    • They don't bleed through paper and have an excellent chiseled tip
    • I love the retractable feature of this marker, colors are good and all but the tips are kind of hard, the sharpie accent that is short and has a cap are much smoother
    • These are more fine tipped than you big, normal highliter, but they do get the job done
    • The tips on retractable are not like the liquid pop tops.
    • The best part is the retractable tips (I would say they are small/medium size compared to other highlighters I have used in the past
    • They catch ink easily which doesn't help and is ruining the tips
    • I like this product very much - the smaller tip makes highlighting small copy much easier and less messy.
    • handy and retractability preserves the tips.
    • (hehe):-Sharpie Retractable Highlighters are my FAVORITE highlighter, by far.-Smaller, more precise chisel tip- not those big fat ones I used in high school-The retractable tip mechanism really keeps these from drying out.
    • My favorite it Bic BriteLiner; comfortable to hold, fine marking tip, and I can see how much ink is left (about once a month I throw out a marker because I have used up all the ink).
    • Cons:-Thinner tip than standard highlighter-Blue and Purple are two dark
    • But I don't like the tips of the highlighters
    • My only problem is that the tip is too stiff, so I can't highlight at whatever angle I hold the pen.
    • As I love the writing feature, the color selection in the package, the package itself, and the retractable tip, I have to give these the highest star rating.
    • Noticed immediately that the coarse tip on these highlighters would not allow precision highlighting, so I used a drafting template to fill in the squares
    • hard flat tip you have to hold the right way to get the flat band of yellow - what a pain
    • Highlight marker with convenient retractable tip helps to keep from drying out early.
    • I love the retractable tips, and they don't smear.
    • retractable action protects the chiseled tip.
    • This multi-pack serves its purpose well, and I love the convenience of having a retractable tip instead of having to mess with removing caps.
    • Great assortment of colors, nice narrow tips, and seriously smudge proof- even on slick coated paper.
    • Thin and the tip is rough
    • Retractable tip
    • Love the retractable tip feature.
    • Kind of irksome if you are marking a small chart of need something fine tipped.
    • Also, the tips seem to become frayed and lose their firm tip; I believe it is because it hits up against the spinning disc that closes and opens when clicking.
    • The tip is a tiny bit more narrow than a standard highlighter but it actually works in its favor
    • PROS:**Smudge-free**Bright color**Thin, chisel tip**Convenient retracting featureCONS:**Go dry very quickly with lots of useI have switched back to Sharpie highlighters with a cap and am much happier with the amount of use I can get out of them.
    • If you don't have a steady hand, you may have to get used to these, as their tip is precise in its chiseled design
    • The tips are a little stiff and narrow for my taste, but I think that is a matter of preference.
    • The retractable tip works well - after several months the pens are all still "juicy" and work great.
    • The tips retract into the barrel of the highlighter to keep the ink from drying out, while no more worries about lost caps or loose caps falling off
    • PROS:**Smudge-free**Bright color**Thin, chisel tip**Convenient retracting featureCONS:**Go dry very quickly with lots of useI have switched back to Sharpie highlighters with a cap and am much happier with the amount of use I can get out of them.
    • With it’s oddly sharp/tiny slanted tip, I found myself having to swipe through a line of text 2 or 3 times
