Over rated.
Pros: Glides Smoothly, Ink Dries Quickly
Cons: no real reduction in bleed through.
The hype doesn't match the performance. Sharpie's claims that these pens won't bleed through paper are exaggerated. While bleed through isn't as bad as with Sharpie regular markers, it isn't less than any other felt tip pen or ultra fine marker. There are less costly felt tips out there that perform as well.
Pen is comfortable to hold. fine piont is good size. Ink doesn't bleed thruough standard notebook paper.

Well WOrth the Money
Pros: Comfortable Grip, Glides Smoothly, Ink Dries Quickly, excellent fine point
Cons: not for use on glossy paper, point may get mushy when used on some materials
For years I've struggled with blunt-tip markers trying to form letters that fit into small spaces. This Sharpie pen is the answer--a fine-point tip that can make small, clear letters that are easily read.
Two disadvantages-- 1) Ink takes awhile to dry on glossy surfaces and it will smear if you disturb it before it dries. 2) The point sometimes gets mushy if used repeatedly on uneven surfaces.

One of my favorites
Pros: Glides Smoothly
Cons: tip doesn't hold up over the life of the pen.
This is the pen I use when I can't find my favorite, the Pentel Energel. These glide very well across the paper to help avoid a cramped hand. The main problem is that they don't have as fine a point as the Energels, and the tip is not as durable.
