Quartet Dry Erase Markers, Whiteboard Markers, Fine Tip, ReWritables, Mini, Magnetic, Classic Colors, 6 Pack (51-659312Q)

You could be skeptical with the $3.47 total price for a set of dry erase markers WITH erasers and magnets. Or you could have a little faith and very little risk and make an easy order. Arriving on-time, the six Quartet Re-Writable markers were packaged in a reusable, clear plastic case with a hanger. The print on the front of the package says 6 Fine Quartet Dry-Erase Markers with “Clean Erase and Low Odor” printed above. My set contained classic colors: blue, red, green, purple, yellow and black. There are options online for additional fun color sets.Let’s get right to the important features, specs and applications which make this the choice for many customers. First, the markers are shorter and thinner than markers made with thick chisel tips and larger ink supplies intended for larger dry-erase boards viewed at a longer distance (Quartet sells those as well). These pens are shorter and narrower. Easy to hold and use, these fine point markers are also great for those smaller hands. The pen cap contains an easy-to-use eraser which will eliminate the well-used “finger” eraser. Also on the cap is a magnet which attaches to magnetic surfaces and keeps the marker within easy reach. In addition, the magnet provides an alternate storage option allowing convenient placement if you want to keep them out of the package and close to the board you are using. Keeping them on or near the board should reduce the risk of loss. Because of the smaller ink supply, with a bit of effort, the pens can be stored with the cap facing down keeping the ink moving towards the tip and potentially reducing dried out markers. The marker colors run vivid to normal and are a sufficiently close match to the cap color.Some of the applications I use the markers for include boards in the kitchen and boards that come with my children’s toys. My wife has a small board for her own reminders that she keeps on the small built in desk off the kitchen. The board is a bit larger than an 8 ½” x 11” piece of paper and uses just one pen to her notes. On the refrigerator are two boards, one for the grocery list and another for messages. The magnet makes it very easy to store the pens on the frig where they are the most convenient. The children have several toys that include dry erase boards. These pens work especially well with those boards. The colors are easily visible on these boards, storage nearby is easy with the attached magnet and the eraser is useful not only as an eraser but also a tool to teach and remind the children of future erasers they will need to use like the one on the #2 pencil. And don’t forget these markers are low odor making them safer for children. I could also see teachers using these pens for their personal boards and students for school lockers.Overall I am very satisfied with this innovative set. They get the job done and are an excellent value. These markers are not intended to be used to write on boards viewed across a business conference room or school classroom. When used with smaller boards and shorter viewing distances, they are the product to choose.

I use these for my dry erase board calendar. They are nice because they have a magnet on one side so you can stick them directly on the board. And I love they have an eraser on the end cap. The trick is to put them on there with the eraser side facing down. That way you always have a good amount of ink when writing. If you hang them the opposite way, they write to faint. So make sure to have them pointing eraser down.

Pay attention when you place these. They are like Sharpies in this respect, you must keep the point (where the eraser part is) DOWN. Seems bloody simple, but it slipped right by me. I keep my Sharpies this way. You'd think I would have known better.I LOVE their fine tip. Any dry erase markers I can find locally are such as those that college professors use. I wanted narrower ones to write myself notes on my handmade personal whiteboard. (A nice picture in a picture frame, and bam, a whiteboard!) I love the different colors, because I use them to color code things I need to do. Red is always homework. Blue is refinishing stuff I either need to work on or get supplies for; green is things to pick up the next time I'm out, etc. I love color coding (my flash cards for school and my highlighter colors are the same for each subject, as is the notebook that goes with, that way I can see immediately which is which). This helps me focus more on what I'm doing than in looking for something, if that makes sense. Thankfully, once I realized I was storing them upside down (if you do that the ink goes to the part that is on the bottom, and you'll get light ink) and turned them the correct way the ink is nice and sharp. LOVE them and especially their fine tip!

I love these! They are great for a small white board on a door. They are magnetic and have the eraser so it's an all-in-one kind of marker. The yellow is pretty useless though unless you are coloring with it. This is the second pack of these I have bought. The markers last well. I tend to use one marker at a time. It took me almost 2 years with daily use to go through the first pack (minus the yellow). Great product and cheap.

These are handy markers. I like that they have a magnet in them so I can keep one attached to my white board daily calendar. It's makes making a quick note on my calendar easy when the pen is readily available. If I had to dig thru a desk drawer or even reach over to my pen cup, I simply wouldn't get as many notes made!The marker end is about the same size as regular pen size marker (no not a big, thick end that's difficult to write with and takes u too much space).The eraser end also works well. I wanted to edit something I wrote the other day, and went to dig thru my desk drawer for the board eraser, when I recalled there is a handy eraser right on the end of this marker, so another time saving convenience!

I used these items along with my Board Dudes Dry Erase Board and they do not seem to mark very well.The color variety is great but when I try to write on my erase board in purple or blue the colors are very very light in color as if someone has watered down your water colors while painting. In a semi-lit room the colors are hard to see at times and don't come up as easily as they should.I'm not saying they are a bad product because it could just be my board or I got faulty markers.-The erase tips are great and work very well.-The magnets seem to be a little weak for the markers and usually slide down the fridge if not sitting on top of my dry board.-The color variety is great although there really isn't need for yellow unless you're making a picture.-The colors are not as bright or as bold as I had hoped.
