When I saw this product, I thought it was an answer to my perpetual wish. Well,
it is not a bad pen, but there is room for improvement.
Pros:
-It is erasable
-Ink flow is decent.
Cons:
-Probably because the ink is erasable; therefore, it is not as saturated as
regular gel pen.
-The ink consumption is relatively quick. I only have it for a month and I use
more than half of the ink. I did not use the pen on a daily basis.
-At first, the eraser works great. But as time goes on, it starts to leave
black streaks on paper, even after I clean the eraser.
-The position of the eraser is interesting. Since I am used to post my cap, I
will need to remove my cap every time I need to erase. Not too convenient if
you are as clumsy as me.
All in all, a great idea. I am waiting to see the next generation of Frixion
pens!

It is a very interesting concept that a gel ink now can be erasable. I did
expect the green to be couple shades darker (a forest green instead of grass
green), but given that it is an erasable pen, darker color might be hard to
erase. The flow is decent, though at time it is not entirely consistent
(leaving strokes with green outline and white center). It would be better if
the erase is located on the top of the cap, instead of at the end of pen. This
is probably why the retractable version is made.
Overall, an interesting experiment, but with room for future improvement!
