STAEDTLER351 WP4 Lumocolor Whiteboard Marker Bullet Tip - Assorted Colours (Pack of 4)

I've just splashed out on a chalkboard and whiteboard easel for my daughter and three drywipe pens were supplied. These rub off brilliantly and I was desperate to get her some more colours. I read so many reviews of so many of these pens and eventually plumped for these.I'm glad I did. These are excellent value for the quality and came in a very handy hard plastic case...as advertised.To start with it felt like we were writing with hard tips and the ink seemed more watery than the original pens that came with the easel. However, within a few days the tips have softened and the ink seems to be flowing a lot more evenly and appears more vibrant than before.We left a lot of drawings and words on the board for more than 24 hours and they rubbed right off without any problems. At first there is a slight see-through residue, but a few more wipes and this is gone completely.I think a good board really helps. Also, once you start using cleaning solutions you're probably going to have to carry on using them indefinitely. Another thing some people do is try to use more abrasive materials to clean their boards. If your board is good, you shouldn't need to.I'm totally happy with these pens and would advise anybody who's having trouble with them to get a new board and ensure you get a proper whiteboard cleaning pad to go with it. There should be no reason to use cleaners or more abrasive cloths with these pens.If anyone's interested (and if Amazon don't mind), I bought my easel online from 24Studio. They have a blue and pink option. We have the pink one.UPDATE December 2013: Five months on, these pens are still being used every day and none of them have run out of ink. They're still writing like they're brand new and I'm still VERY impressed with the quality.

Great pens, easy to write with, good variety of colours with a bullet- shaped tip to allow for varying the thickness of the line drawn.Easy to hold, dries quickly and wipes clean from a whiteboard as expected.

Great quality whiteboard pens

Great product overall - the colours are nice, they are easily erasable on whiteboards, aren't dry at all. I love the thickness of the marker - not too thin, not too thick. The markers are readable on whiteboards, all colours are bright and easy to read - orange one is probably the most lacking, but I still enjoy it!

Why did you choose this product over others?:I have used these before. Easy to use, last long and good colours. They rub off easy. Ink flow good.

We always have a shortage of whiteboard markers in the office. These will save a lot of time. If I know the brand well, they will also be long lasting

I've been a teacher for a long time (overhead projectors, anyone?). Then I was given a white board - whoop - was like a promotion! I was worthy or dropping the chalk for real pens. I'd earned my pen licence!!The pens I used at school were ace. These ones here, I bought these for my home office (gotta have a big white board to make myself look important). These pens, slightly cheaper, don't last as long as the industrial teacher ones. However, they work, are smooth and blooming super. Each pen has its own colour, or as many might read it as, it's own emotion. So...Blue is a lovely calming guy, lacks a bit of confidence compated to black, but thatll cone in time.Red and orange - they both like to stand out as important above the others, although red just about wins with its associated passion.Green is earthy, calming, and happy. Nice to add grounding to any written work.Purple tries to keep up with blue - its OK, but like a blue apprentice.And black... well black is the backbone of pen colours, the solid, reliable one. It does not offend, it just says it as it is. You can count on black.

These whiteboard pens are actually amazing. I've been using them for at least 3 months and they haven't run out despite me using them everyday.I use the pens at home to revise, they're great for blurting and all of the colours are super bright and pretty, none of them are dull.They have thick, strong tips and those are really useful for big whiteboards. I've been letting some kids I know draw all over my whiteboard with them and despite them wasting the ink, the pens literally have no run out. As soon as they I'm gonna buy this pack again.If the ink ever gets a bit hard to remove, just write over it again, wait 10 seconds for it to dry, and rub it out. Should come off the board instantly,
