AVERYHi-Liter Pen-Style Highlighters, Smear Safe Ink, Chisel Tip, 6 Assorted Color Highlighters (23585)

Bright and durable! Easy to use, hold and write with. Bright colors and worth the buy for the price!

Basic highlighter. Colors are great. Not too thick yet very easy too see.

I spent 4 days reading reviews of highlighter brands during one of many Boston snow storms (I was going a little stir crazy and I needed new highlighters). I finally settled on these because of the high reviews and low price. They are amazing. They are everything I had hoped they would be and more. I started last semester with a 24 pack of Bic highlighters which dried up after maybe 5 pages of a textbook. These babies are wonderful. I've read and highlighted ~100 words already with just the one.Highlighting with these is all I've ever dreamed of. When it comes to highlighters, stick with the basics: there is no need for a clear or retractable tip if its just going to dry up in 2 days. These bad boys also have a convenient chisel tip but it is slightly wider than most pen style highlighters, allowing you to highlight an entire line of text, not just part of it like most highlighters. While the colors aren't crazy vibrant, the yellow are quite bright and enjoyable to work with. I use them mainly in text books and they do not bleed through. I did need to highlight some ink writing the other day and it smeared the freshly written ink a small bit, but if you let the ink dry for a few seconds you are golden.Seriously, buy these. They are the best highlighters I have ever owned.

I really like the colors of these highlights. They are the same ones that are online.

I have been using these highlighters for about a week. I got irritated when it smeared my handwritten notes badly, inspiring me to write a review.I tested out all the different colors, and would you believe it, no smear. I re-highlighted my hand written notes on my book (since maybe the type of paper plays a role) and there was also no smearing.I have found that with a ball point pen, if the ink is left to dry, then the highlighter ink will not smear. If you highlight right away, then it will smear.Previously, I was using the fancy Sharpie brand. I took one of them with me on the airplane and it BLED ALL OVER when I opened the cap. In comparison, these highlighters are cheaper and less likely to bleed when you open the cap. Not SUPER vibrant, but it's vibrant enough for $4.*******UPDATE ( see third picture)I've been continually using these high lighters now for a few months. I think the purple and blue is too dark. My one and only ball point pen died on me yesterday, so I went and got new pens today and the high lighter looks pretty good on it compared to the other high lighters I picked up at Michael's Arts and Crafts Store...since Amazon's shipping is taking 5 days, I had to go to the store and pick up a pen. In tested Avery Hi-Liter, Crayola Take Note!, Pilot FriXion light, and Zebra Mildliner, mild ink. In short, I liked the Avery one the best. The others had dull colors or smeared. I might try Pilot or Zebra again with brighter colors. In fairness, I am comparing pastels to neons. But at least it makes me appreciate the Avery Hi-Liter more.

Writes smoothly and good quality.

Great product for the price. These last years!

Super nice

Product arrived and the packaging literally fell apart. The markers themselves often “skip” on the page making for uneven and inconsistent lines, and yet when they do work they bleed through the paper. Bought these because I needed a pack with purple, but am sorely regretting throwing out my old ones.

Just what I needed for work.
