QuartetDry Erase Markers, Whiteboard Markers, Chisel Tip, Bold Color, EnduraGlide, White Board Dry Erase Pens, Assorted Colors, 12 Pack (5001-20MA)

Hands-down, my absolutely favorite! I have used dozens of brands of dry-erase markers over the years, including name-brand, generic, fine point, bullet point, broad point, paint-pen-style, you name it. These immediately became my favorite. Not a single disappointment in the batch, whereas most brands and boxes have at least one dud of a color. Every one of these is bright, bold, accurate to the colored cap, and glides smoothly. No fraying yet, which is also common with other brands. There is nothing quite like the disappointment of that brand new, crisp dry-erase marker becoming frayed and losing brilliance shortly after you’ve uncapped it for the first time. Even with a five-year-old often misplacing caps, I have not had any issues with fading, fraying, or drying out (knock on wood). To top it off, they erase cleanly, without leaving staining behind. I highly recommend these markers!

What makes a white board pen? Is it the glide across the smooth porcelain white? The manner by which it conforms to the natural movement of the hand upon a vertical surface? Perhaps a consideration to the aesthetics, and how it makes one appear in front of an audience?I will not pretend that these pens are anything beyond what I would expect, but being a bit of a whiteboard pen connoisseur, I cannot help but comment on what these pens have added to my whiteboard pen experience, in going above the standard dribble of an expo marker.The features on this pen are remarkable. One cannot help but notice the attention to functionality that is so clearly a core of Quartet's company dogma. The shape of the lid is but one fine example. It is elegant, tapered, and pleasing to rest one's eyes upon with a 2 tone texture, sacrificing only the useless and mundane ability of other markers to stack upon one another for raw beauty. Functionality is not lost! The dramatic sweep of the upper opening serves to prevent the pen from sneaking off on an unhampered roll when the cap is attached, averting great personal inconvenience to the user. When taken off and attached to the butt of the pen, a regal look is achieved, with a bishop-like flair about the pen's clear assertion of its superiority to others in the vicinity.A loud, but ungaudy proclamation of the pen's patented, three chambered technology further emphasizes to those around you, that you emanate a seriousness in the symbols that are to be inscribed forth from this pen. One can only fantasize the mechanism by which this technology improves the writing quality of the pen, but transparent windows prominently display the inner workings of the technology, and in a functionality minded tour-de-force, Quartet has identified for the user an ink level gauge on these windows.Placing ones hand in the appropriate writing position, the pen is surprisingly light and airy, considering the advanced technology inside. The girth of the trunk is ideal for balance between finesse and stability for vertical surface writing; it bridges the chasm spanning the brain and the whiteboard. With the EnduraGlide pen, thoughts from the bowels of intellect come gushing forth, manifested in the brilliance of a presentation or lecture.A remarkable aspect of this pen, surely a result of the patented three chamber technology, is the sustained high quality writing line, regardless of angle, or pressure. Like a skater's lines on ice, there is just as much elegance in the lines contoured to the whiteboard as in the pen itself. The pen lasts a long while, and are highly resistant to being left open for reasonable periods of time.In summary: I like these pens. Especially for the price.

I'm putting this review on both the marker packs I bought so you see what I compared...After searching Amazon for hours and reading a ton of reviews, I couldn't decide which dry erase markers to get. I wanted-non staining-no shadow left-won't dry out quick-variety of colors-magneticI couldn't find any that seemed high enough quality with magnets so I gave up on that since I can get a magnetic holder or glue magnets on by myself.In the end, I couldn't decide between two brands so I bought both the Quartethttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008DQXKZK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1and the BIC Intensityhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QNUTNSG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1The Quartet can write a thick and thin lineThe BIC only a thinner line (not super thin but fine)Both were with $2 of each other and had 12 markers in the packsI like them both. The BIC Intensity markers seem to erase a little more cleanly on the first swipe but both erase fine with a second swipe of the eraser. The Quartet writes just a bit darker. So far neither has stained my two new dry erase boards so I'm happy there. I like variety of colors and both brands seem to be nice and vibrant and easy to read on my boards.Bottom line - I think you'll be happy with either of these. They both work great and erase without a problem.If either brand added magnets or erasers on the ends I'd say they were a clear winner but I'll have to get out my super glue and do that myself.I'll update my review if either set dries out before they should. I've only had them a couple weeks, so I can't speak to the longevity of either brand yet. I'm currently storing the markers on their sides when not in use.

These make Middle School math more engaging!! The chisel tip makes it easy to write on the whiteboard and the colors are super vibrant. I have to be honest and say that I am using them less often because I am going through the ink pretty fast! It can also be a bit challenging to erase. I usually have to use the Expo whiteboard cleaners about once a week to get rid of the residue.. But overall these are great whiteboard markers! I have been calling them my Magical Markers with my 8th graders and then I realized I needed to stop lol!

This brand of dry erase markers is superior to other brands, including the brand that most people know and use. Trust me - once you try these, you will never go back. The colors are so vibrant and the ink lasts much longer.

These are SO MUCH BETTER than Expo markers. It was such a revelation. As soon as I wrote on the board with the first one my jaw dropped. I will never buy expo again. They write smooth and the pigment it so saturated yet it erases well. I highly recommend.
