Great pen. I have been using the regular Uni-ball Jetstream ballpoint pen and decided to try this one recently. I love it.

My girlfriend is a pen whore, straight up. But she cleaned up her act and changed her ways ever since she stumbled upon this masterpiece that was chiseled by the Gods themselves. I undoubtedly recommend buying this pink Jetstream if your girlfriend is out of control when it comes to finding a pen to love and keep warm at night.

Wow! I really enjoy writing with this pen. It writes really smoothly. It is a new favorite.

This is the best pen that a good note taker could ever get....the ink runs straight out...perfect!

The comfort level is outstanding, the jetstream inks for all 3 colors are top-notch (somehow, not all jetstream pens/refills deliver all I've come to expect from them), and it is delightfully pink like Jigglypuff. I am not someone who is crazy for pink at all, but this is a solidly, adorably, yet not cloyingly pink pen. Haven't had to refill it yet but I did mess around with it and it seems like it'll be easy to do when the time comes.

Consistent, clean, crisp. I tested on:

- Doane graphed notepad
- Moleskin lined notepad
- Regular ol' crappy yellow notepad

Compared to a .4 Hitec-c, a .38 uni signo DX, and a .4 sarasa, this was the only one that wrote reliably and consistently well on all paper types. The gel pens (especially those w/ finer tips) skipped and scratched a bit on the doane and crappy yellow notepads, and everybody did great on the Moleskin. Jetstream ink/pen wrote fluently and smoothly in all 3.

My handwriting tends to be kinda fat and sloppy (especially during fast-paced meetings and lectures.) The finer-tip pens tend to get scratchy at high speeds for big letters. When I could slow down and write nicely/small-ly at my desk, or during a brain-storm, these finer tip pens (and this Jetstream in particular) really start to shine, regardless of your paper. Having said that, for a fast-paced meeting, I'd reach for this Jetstream pen and a Moleskin pad. Knockout combo, regardless of your usage.

I just ordered the .7 4+1 cousin of this pen and am really looking forward to trying/reviewing it.

I LOVE THIS PEN! I bought 30 items from JetPens recently, and this one is by far my favourite. The ink is just like the other Jetstreams- smooth, rich and consistent. The barrel is not too thick at all, and is a really pretty shiny black :) 5/5 stars for sure!

This is currently my favorite pen, hands down. The efficiency is unmatched. It's especially ideal for taking notes during meetings at work and lectures at grad school. I often find myself using different colors to illustrate different speakers.

As with many Jetstream pens, and certainly most of the ones hailing from Japan, the ink is very smooth. Not to mention the line is fairly clean.

Why not five stars? The noise the pen makes switching between inks can be a little loud. That's not a good thing during conference calls :(.

Also the ink plungers are a little juvenile-looking and the blue ink is often times hit or miss on smoothness.

I recently ordered the 4 & 1 Multipen and Pencil and I think that will be a great upgrade. Still, this is a very good pen.

I searched long and hard for this pen. I got it at a trade show for free without markings on the brand, I loved the pen, used all the ink and HAD to have it again. I found out the brand and am the happiest person because now I have a replacement. This pen writes smoothly, doesn't skip, always writes on the first try. I couldn't be happier. I ordered extra of everything so I wouldn't run out again.

This is the pencil that I lend to my coworkers at the office. Not my favorite pen as I prefer gel inks, but this ballpoint is just what is needed in most offices or schools (Hmm, I guess it needs a mechanical pencil too), the price is a bit high for those purposes though.

Love the Jetstream Inks! the .5 is very smooth for a ballpoint and produces a thinner line than comparably sized gels.
The pen body itself has an issue. The clip (all of the clear portion) is quite loose.

I really love this pen, I use it along with the Zebra Surari multipen for law school. It writes really smoothly, the only downside is that if you twist the grip part a little too much the barrel of the pen will crack and make it difficult to write with because the grip part will always be loose. What I found helped the most with the crack was floral tape. so it looks a little ugly, but the pen still works great and it doesn't bother me. I tried super glue to fix the crack but it didn't work as well as wrapping floral tape around it did.

Perfect!

There isn't much to say... just take 3 great jetstream inks (Black, Blue, Red) and throw them in a pen that is basically a slightly larger .7 Basic series body. It is very comfortable in my small hand for being a multipen (about the thickness of the barrel (middle) of a sharpie marker ~1.5in circumference). It probably won't be a dedicated writer (still a bit too big), but for 'on the go' it looks, feels, and writes nice. It's not as nice or functional as the 4+1, but it is 'thin' enough for me to use at home in place of the individual color pens for short periods. For MOST people('s hands), it could easily be an everyday pen.

I love the basic series look with the pen ink indicator in the plunger and nothing else. So much so that I put a .5 refill in a .7 basic body and put a red dot on it to label it as the one with the .5 in it. So this was great because it was the .5 inks, all in one pen, inside the minimalist Basic body.


The only thing.. and I don't know why.. Is that the top is loose. It wobbles a little which is bad because it is attached to the clip, so I know I'm going to get in the habit of playing with it like a loose tooth and (eventually) breaking it. Maybe it is taken from another Uni pen that has a pencil? But for this pen it doesn't have a purpose and I'll probably end up supergluing it tight. It also gives it the impression of it being a cheap pen (well it is.. but so is the Basic, which is perfect), even though the rest of it is solid.

Love this pen but the navy plastic part where it screws together split after about six months. That shouldn't happen to a $7 pen.

I bought a bunch of pens from JetPens to try out. This one is far and away the best of the bunch. Smooth writing, smooth clicking, good looking ink. Plastic body does not feel too durable, but hasn't broken yet!

Before I pull the trigger, is there a .5mm lead conversion to fit this pen?

Great pen! I love Jetstream pens because they are great to write with. They glide across paper very well, which makes writing for long periods of time more comfortable.

Amazing pen- the ink is smooth, rich and consistent, as with all Jetstreams. The barrel is not too thick as well. I gave it to my non-pen-appreciating sister, and even she loves it.

I have had this pen for a little over a month and I adore it. I first fell in love with the Uni-ball Jetstreams about a year ago and I was delighted to come across this multi-pen. If you are not used to the 0.5mm, you might be surprised by just how fine the tip is but the smooth Jetstream ink works very well. (The colors are very vivid, as expected with Jetstream.)

I have this pen in the Navy body although that is more of a personal preference. The barrel has an excellent width for my smaller hands and I do not feel fatigue after writing with it for long periods of time. The rubber grip is not squishy and is firm enough that I feel that I control the pen but not so hard that my fingers hurt.

The multi-pen aspect is perfect for me since I am a student. Being able to switch quickly and efficiently between inks when I am taking notes, whether in lecture or when I'm studying, is essential. My only dislike is that when I change colors, the click is rather loud. I have become accustomed to placing a finger so the click is muffled.

The ink does not seem to be depleted too quickly; as I said, I've had it for over a month and the ink levels are still rather high. However, I did order refills when I ordered this pen, just in case.

All in all, this is a fantastic pen and its price is very good. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in a consistent multipen with excellent performance.

Ok, here's another winner. I really love the multi-pen concept which eliminates the need for carrying several pens...but to have a multi-pen with the "infamous" Jetstream ink --genius! I do a lot of writing everyday and the ink supply depletes very quickly but
a still a great pen.

I don't know of any other pen/ink that writes like this. There is no friction.. it feels so good to write with. I replaced all inks with 1.0 refills. I had this pen in the white barrel and decided I wanted this particular one so I could see all the cool springs inside the barrel! Gives it a fun, springy mechanical look!

Bought 0.5 by accident as it was my first pen I bought from JetPens. But I recently switched the inks out with 1.0 refills that I later purchased from JetPens, and also added my own touch of cute colorful little flower stickers all around the white barrel. Wish I could post a picture! Love the ink flow's smoothness on paper (incomparable) and also the 3 color choice, so I bought a 0.7 see-through barrel Uni-Ball Jetstream3 pen as well and decided to put a 0.7 green ink where the red usually goes to make it different than my other one. Wish they had green inks and other colors for this pen in 1.0 size! Now that would be fun!

The barrel looks sleeker than her 0.7 counterpart. The ink cartridges work as Jetstream inks should, solid, complete lines.

The pen is weaker in build-quality compared to her counterparts, but still has the great Jetstream ink which flows on to the paper with minimal frictional resistance as compared to smooth.

Being a big fan of Jetstreams and the writing quality of their vivid hybrid ink, I was excited when the multi pens arrived at Jetpens. I ordered 2, a blue and a green. The refills have the same great writing quality as regular Jetstreams, and I am working to see what other ballpoint multi-pens I can "hack" them into.
The barrel of the pen is transparent plastic, with a sticker in darker contrasting color printed with large "3" on it.
The slider mechanisms securely lock the refills in the down position with very little play. The grip is a firm, straight matte vinyl that measures about 12 mm in diameter. The length of the pen is 14.4 cm, making it about 6mm shorter than the Zebra Clip-On Multi Pen for comparison. The Jetstream3 is very lightweight, which could be good or bad, depending on your writing preference.
The only minor issue I have with the pen is I think Mitsubishi could have done a better job engineering the clip. It doesn't quite measure up to the fit and finish of the rest of the pen. It's rather loose fitting and bends easily-not a reliable clip to hold the pen securely in pocket or notebook.

The Good: Vivid, "Jetstream smooth" write out with the joy of having 3 colors in one instrument.

Could Be Better: The clip!
