Luxury Fountain Pen Set - Smooth Medium Nib - Includes 3 Ink Cartridges, Refillable Ink Converter, Gift Box - Fountain Pens For Writing, Calligraphy, Journaling, Sketching (The Stealth)

Bottom line, I love this pen. It's become one of my favorites quickly. The good: * Smooth writer - using Waterman Audacious Red ink, wrote nicely on the first inking; VERY smooth on multiple paper types (Leuchtturm 1917 A5 lined notebook, Tūl legal pad, Strathmore Mixed Media 300 Series, and Office Depot legal pads) * Easy inking - Piston adapter works easily and writes well following first inking * Value - For what this cost, it is a phenomenal pen that punches well above its weight * Construction quality - Excellent materials used; metal pen body with resin exterior feels very sturdy and like it was built to last for a very long time * Posting - the cap posts well and does not feel loose as the caps on several of my other pens (some of which I've spent a good deal more money on than this one) do The only thing I can think of that some people may not like about the pen (but I love) is that when the cap is posted, the pen can be "tail heavy" in the hand. This is something I had to really reach for to put in the review because I've seen some who are concerned about that. In my hand, though, I like the tail heavy feel of the pen.

This pen looks and feels impressive. At first touch it’s a bit heavy, but a lot of the weight is in the cap. If you put the cap to the side it’s very balanced. The nib (that’s the tip right?) is a bit thicker than I expected, but it makes for a beautifully smooth writing experience. The pen just glides. It comes with a cartridge compatible with an ink well, and short disposal cartridges. It’s also compatible with the Waterman Large Standard Ink Cartridges (which had I purchased previously). Being compatible with three different ink sources is convenient feature. The pen comes loaded with the “ink well” cartridge installed, and I was unsure of how to uninstall this. But the QR code and the excellence customer service people rescued me in all of 3 minutes. 5 minutes into opening, I had the disposable cartridge refitted, and I was writing things down. I’m just getting into journal writing, and while I love a good roller ball, but I’m fairly new to fountain pens. My dad on the other hand, gets a pen every year from his boss (he worked at the same hospital for 30 years). He happened to be with me when I opened it up, so he took it for a spin. Even with his experience of his Mont Blanc and his calligraphy pen sets, he was very impressed with this. I’ve only had it for a few hours, but I’m loving writing with a running hand. The ink flow is evenly distributed, the ink runs quickly but dries quickly, so I haven’t smeared it yet, and it writes well at all angles and speeds. So far I’m a big fan. This is going to be a tremendous help for unpacking my thoughts and improving my cursive penmanship. The $40 was worth it. Other things I noticed: 1. The customer service was excellent. They immediately connected to FB messenger, which I use routinely, and knew precisely the questions to ask. 2. The packaging was sturdy and well made. It had a bunch of dried ink inside the box which was a bit weird, but nothing on the pen or in the case, just on the protective laminated paper which houses the case. 3. The cap has 3 parts: the little nub on the top, the paper clip thing and the cap proper. The cap has cheap plastic threads which connect the nub to the cap proper. But this is probably never going to be relevant. All the rest of the materials are metal and they seem sturdy. If the pen breaks in a few days, I’ll come back with a follow up, but for now, I think I have a new favorite pen.

It's an elegant product at an affordable price! I had long seen and desired my own Ellington Fountain pen but always put off buying one. Well, Father's Day saw a daughter of mine give me a nice Amazon gift card and I immediately headed to the Ellington pens wanting to order a black medium pen. With Amazon, I placed the order late at night and by the next afternoon I had my new pen. I should add that I've been a fountain pen guy since my elementary school days when one could buy a Sheaffer fountain pen for 99¢ - this is way better! I love its ease of use and response to my way of writing. Comfort: Fits comfortably in my hand. Value for money: Executive quality for not so much money. Ink flow: The ink flows smoothly and evenly; a joy to use. Write quality: Its ease of writing is great even though my penmanship leaves a lot to be desired.

An easy to use fountain pen. Nice quality, a good weight and nice finish. Easy to insert ink without any leaks. Great value for money. Would make a nice gift.

This is my second Ellington fountain pen, my first one mysteriously disappeared after someone “borrowed” it (a testament to how nice it is). I genuinely love the way it writes. The medium nib delivers smooth, consistent ink flow and glides effortlessly across the page. It really does feel like a luxury pen at a great price point. A quick note: if you write with a light hand, you might notice the top strokes of your letters aren’t as full or bold as the downward ones. It’s not a flaw, just something to be aware of with this nib. If you have a heavier hand, though, it writes beautifully. The set includes both cartridges and a refillable converter, which is a great bonus. I only wish the instructions were printed as having to scan a QR code to figure out the ink setup was a minor annoyance. Still, an excellent pen that I’d happily recommend, and clearly, I already bought it twice!

Feels nice in the hand and has a luxurious, premium appeal. The nib took some time to wear in and feel smooth but after a week of use it's much improved. The medium nib has a broader pen stroke than I expected. Lines are quivalent width to 0.7mm ballpoint gel ink pens I own despite this one being advertised as 0.5mm. In hindsight I would have picked the fine nib over medium. Parts and accessories are very expensive to ship to Australia, a new nib is almost the same price as a whole new pen.

Perfekte Produktqualität zu einem sehr guten Preis - Bestellabwicklung und Lieferung BESTENS! Vielen Dank

This pen feels great in the hand and writes beautifully. I bought the fine nibbed version and it works perfectly for me. It is also very stylish and has the appearance of much more expensive pens.

I've only tried to write a few words until now, I really appreciate the shape of the fountain pen's body; it's a size that's suitable for my hands that suffer a bit from arthritis pain and therefore I struggle to clench my fingers. The nib scratches a bit on the paper. I loaded it with one of the black cartridges provided and the ink seems good even compared to the one I usually use: the Montblanc black ink

Ich bin total begeistert.
