Parker Ingenuity 5th Technology Pen, Medium Point with Black Ink Refill 1972232 - Deluxe Deep Red

Lovely pen write smoothly and is a good weight in your hand. It a unique design but not too expensive, I really like it. Just love Parker pens.

Smooth writer, as described, great product.

This is a lovely looking and heavy feeling pen, but it is just a very posh fibre-tip pen in a luxury box. What isn’t immediately apparent is that it doesn’t write ‘out of the box’ and you have to swap the dummy refill for the hidden refill, and there are no instructions explaining this or how to do it. I am a professional writer and it even had me foxed for a few seconds!Another thing to watch out for is the wide variation on price, depending on the seller. This seller is the cheapest I found, but it pays to shop around.Teachers and professionals might find a red or green refill useful, but you can’t seem to find these less popular options.

I like this very much.

Great writing experience! Very smooth and elegant.

Beautiful to write with, very smooth and comfortable to use. The ink cartridge lasted from Tuesday to Saturday morning. I wrote about ½ an A4 page each day.I have ordered a refill and a cheaper pen as well as I can't afford refills that cost more than 5 cartridges. I'm quite disappointed as the pen was the most money I've ever paid for a fountain pen.

Tip top love ❤️ it.

The pen itself is very nice. The main problem, unfortunately, lies in the fact that the refills make the average mayfly look ancient, running out far too quickly. The refills are also rather expensive. After getting through four refills in four months, the pen (a gift) sits in a pen pot on my desk and I use either a fountain pen or a cheap disposable fibre tip which writes more nicely, lasts longer and weighs in at something like 55% of the cost of the refill for this.Which hints at the other issue, which is that it’s nothing special to write with. A Papermate Flair (or whatever they call them these days), or one of the Pilot range of pens is nicer to use. You may as well buy a fountain pen or a ballpoint from the ranges of Parkers with a comparable price-point (the Parker rollerball, in my experience isn’t that nice to use compared to, again, the humble Pilot G2). If the option to use something other than the Parker refill existed, then I might be persuaded to try using mine again, but I can’t see it.It’s a shame, but the refills and the writing experience really let this pen down.
