Customer Reviews

I ordered all five colours of these highlighters and I'm rather impressed.
They look really sleek and cool and the lighter tones of colour are really nice.
I don't use highlighters often simply because the fluro colours irritate me but these are really nice.
They bring out the certain parts/text you want but they're too over powering.
Over all, very satisfied with the products :) I recommend you buy them if you also don't like
covering your notes with over-bearing fluro colours :)

Just the right shade of golden yellow; not too bright nor dull at all. Would gladly repurchase this highlighter. I'm planning on getting the five color set to try them all out!

I gave this pen to my sister, and she love it!
she is always reading documents for the university, the tone is a little light, so if you like some more "remarkable on color" this is not your pen.

The Uni-ball Propus Window is my favorite highlighter out of the whole Jetpens collection. The window is a neat design feature although it probably is not something many people would find useful. I do fund myself occasionally glancing through it to see the end of the sentence or text I am highlighting, I hate when I go over and begin the next sentence on accident. With or without the window I would not change my opinion on this product, the color intensity, ink flow, style of the duel tips, and feel on paper makes it far superior over any other highlighter I have tried and I have at least one of every highlighter Jetpens offers and many more. The orange is my favorite but I think every color is great and I especially like the soft color line. The width of the tip on the window side is awesome which is why I think the window design is great even if you never use the window. The ink rarely shows through on any type of paper I have used and the flow is so good that every stoke is uniform without any heavy spots at the beginning or end of the stroke. I would recommend this line of highlighters to anyone who asked my opinion. Hope this helps someone make a good buying decision.

I'm a huge stationary nerd, so as soon as I saw these highlighters on JetPens, I had to have them. The hook was their nifty window so you don't over-highlight. I'm a chronic over-highlighter-- As in, I'll go well into the next sentence if I don't think about it and stop myself-- so these seemed *amazing*. Honestly, though, the windows aren't the best feature.

The Propus Highlighters are double-sided. That means that one side is a regular (windowed) highlighter and the other side is a thin marker tip that uses the same highlighter ink. "What would I need that for," you ask? Don't worry: I thought the same thing. When I started using the Propus, though, I realized it was changing the way I read textbooks. Now, I make a thick highlight over the key point, word, or phrase with the regular highlighter side. When I get to important sub-details, I use the thin point to underline, box in, draw arrows, star, and even write notes. With this new highlighting technique, I feel much more productive and understand what I'm reading better. These highlighters are a must for students!

wow I love these pens! The windows are awesome, and the colors are even brighter than on the picture!

Love these! nice and light..I hate dark highlighters so I am always on the hunt for pale ones. And these really fit the bill. I don't really notice myself using the see thru window tho, but it's a cute feature regardless.

I didn't buy it from here, but it does beat the price I bought it at so I will review it here. This is hands down the best highlighter I have ever used. I have them in all colors. It can do a fine point, and on the large side you wont go off and highlight something you didn't want to because of the window. It looks so cool too, everyone asks where I got it. I'm a little confused as to how to refill it, but so far it hasn't run out of ink and I've had it for a while.

I absolutely LOVE these highlighters!!! They didn't bleed through even the thinnest of my textbook pages, never faded - or atleast not yet, and the colors great not too light not too dark. The dual tips come in handy and are great too and the window helps a lot if your a fast reader and tend to highlight as your reading like I do. So now I don't highlight any "extra" words and my books don't look like a coloring book. :) Since 1st trying I've bought all the colors and love ever single one of them.

Once again, the Japanese have designed a wonderful product. I honestly don't even know why I buy American products anymore, especially school and stationary supplies! I am a little bit OCD when it comes to taking notes and annotating texts, so whenever I would accidentally "over-highlight" I would get somewhat irritated. Of course, we've all faced this problem: you're reading your text, find a great key point that's summed up in one sentence, go to highlight it, and then all of a sudden you realize that you've highlighted the first word or two of the next sentence! These highlighters are the solution! As other reviewers pointed out, the color isn't as bright as some other highlighters are, but then again sometimes those really bright highlighters can end up bleeding through the pages in your textbooks! I would highly recommend these highlighters and I doubt I'll ever buy another kind again! :-)

This set of vibrant highlighters have gotten me through hundreds of pages of textbooks boring enough to make a rock snore. Their colors are highly attractive, the packaging could not have been designed better, and the product is double the use with double ended sides of different sizes.
The only concern I faced with this product was the ink flow. Many times, especially with the skinnier twin tip, large amounts of ink would flow straight to the tip and create a large blot on my paper. I believe this could be accounted through the angle of which you hold your highlighter.
Nonetheless, I highly recommend this set for all you busy body studiers ;)

I really like these highlighters. The window isn't as great as I had hoped, but it's good. You have to use the highlighter at quite an angle for it to actually be worthwhile, but if I have something to highlight that needs to be done very carefully, they're great.

The thing I like most about them is the ink color. All of the pens have bright inks, and all of the colors allow the text below to be easily visible. I haven't tried to photocopy them, but they appear to be light enough that the text will show through on a copy. I've never really had luck using blue and green highlighters because they're always too dark to allow the text to be easily visible.

The other thing I like is the scent (or lack thereof). I can't smell the highlighters when I'm using them, but I think I smelled something when I brought the pen to my nose (it's very mild or it's just my imagination, I'm not sure which).

I have been using these to study for my boards. They are great highlighters however they do run out of ink first or a couple of mine have although they did manage to highlight a good 25 to 30 pages before this happened. I would definitely buy them again

I love the light colors and the viewing window which is super easy to read through. These are my favorite highlighters and I'm a serious pen snob. The back side is perfect for underlining or outlining text...perfect!

I love the dual tips and it doesn't bleed through!!!! Even better! My only complaint is that it smears a bit if the ink is not fully dry.

I bought this as part of a pink pack by Uni-ball from a japanese airport and I was surprised at how handy a window in a highlighter could be! It's really popular with my friends and I love the duo tip! Nice vibrant pink color and you finally know when to stop highlighting! Great for the OCD people who hate those break lines!

I never knew that a highlighter could benefit from a little window, but this is the best invention. Don't you hate it when you over highlight something? Well let me tell you that with these bad boys that will NEVER happen again. Plus the added fine tip is great for mini highlighting. An overall great highlighter.

I bought one of these recently (when I was on my huge stationary shopping spree :)) and I am quite happy with the performance. The little transparent window not only lets you know where you're highlighting, it also helps to keep the highlighter tip straight and not bendy.

A good buy!

As strange as it might sound (?), this is a fun little highlighter! Nice to have the broad and fine tips... and that "window" is a unique concept. The color isn't too bright or dull... just right for me. Definitely getting more of these later.

This highlighter is amazing. The clear window allows me to see what I'm highlighting and has a great aesthetic appeal. The felt tip side is also really useful. I alternate between both sides often when highlighting/underlining/etc...

The color is perfect. It's a soft purple that makes your text stand out, not stick out. This highlighter makes my notes so much more fun to read!

My go-to highlighter for graduate school studies. Love the variety of colors available. I didn't think much of the window when I ordered it, but it is truly a luxury when you can see what you are highlighting through the window. Absolutely fantastic!

Some highlighters don't last very long, but these withstood every test, study review, and intense reading session.

I highly recommend these highlighters.

Spreading the word!

I LOVE these highlighters and actually just ordered the brighter ones, another set of these soft ones and a couple sets for friends who have helped me run the ink down on my old set. They lasted me almost the entire semester without failing us once. I'm a nursing student and do a lot of highlighting and color coding when I study and take notes and these were perfect. I loved having the dual tips so I could use the smaller one to just underline if I wanted to. I had a couple friends who ALWAYS sat next to me in Microbiology and Physiology so they could use them to. The only color that has started to run low is the yellowish one and it's sill useable just not as bright. Hope Jetpens carries these for a long time to come. I won't go back to any other brand.

These highlighter are awesome and the colours are soft and not too bright. I also really like that you can write with fine point or the chiselled tip. The only bad thing I have to say is that they run out of ink rather quickly.

to die for highlighters

Great color and quality! These highlighters are soft and pretty, as well as being easier on the eyes compared to regular brights. The window is a great help, and now I can't go back to using highlighters without the it. Tried this color and golden yellow and I love them both; I'm about to purchase their 5 color set!
