Overall, I'm happy with the purchase. $20 for two pens and a bottle of ink is great. These are the first piston-filling pens that I have owned and I'm still not sold on it but overall I think they are reasonable for the price.
I would echo the sentiments about the smell and the leaking. They smell funky and I haven't used them in a couple of weeks due to that but, after reading the seller's replies, maybe that will have faded now. The plastic does have a cheaper feel to it, but that is to be expected as they offered two pens that write well for $20.
After filling, my fingers were heavily coloured. I have also found that one of my two pens colours my fingers every time I write with it. I don't have the same problem with the other one. That may be due to my management of the filling but I would like to figure out a way around that.
Overall, the idea of having an ink bottle to refill as opposed to the disposable cartridges is a nice one. I'm happy with this purchase and it has definitely made me want to continue using fountain pens.

The pens write fine, but the quality of the plastic is really poor, there is an smell that makes me keep these pens away. Any Jinhao or Wing Sung have better quality and appearance.

hyuliHi,
Are they leaking when carried or when kept on a desk? These pens have very wet ebonite feeds and are piston filled. Thus, when pocket carried or bumped around a lot they are likely to expel ink into the cap. This is true of just about any piston filled pens with ebonite feeds.

The pens that I bought leaked a little after I took them aboard an airplane. Also the clip on one of the pens is already noticeably bent after being in my pocket for a week.

jonthelinHi Jonthelin,
Most any piston filled fountain pen will leak on an airplane due to air expansion in the barrel. The clip can be removed and bent back into place by unscrewing the cap topper. However, if you can't get it fixed feel free to reach out to me at fountainpenrevolution@gmail.com.

I know the pens were inexpensive, but one of the pens, the stub nib, is so wet one can hardly write and to make it worse it also leaks where the barrel and nib section meet, thus every time I use it my fingers get colored by the leaky ink.
The flex pen, works pretty well.

They leak. They look really cheap. Not a fan at all. It'll be a while before I'm buying into another one of these Massdrop deals. Feel more than a little burned here.

I'm not exactly regretting the purchase, but I don't think I'll reach for these often. I have other FPR pens I do enjoy using, but these are uncomfortable to use and fairly thin. They smell (as noted by other reviewers) but the smell has diminished over the past few weeks. I'll take cheap chinese mass produced fountain pens over cheap indian any day.

I love the design and they are the cheapest piston fillers I have ever seen. They are typical cheap pens that leak and the ink evaporates out of them very quickly. They wrote well at the beginning but got worse with time. The stench is horrible. At first I thought it was the ink, but when I used my own ink it still smells just as bad. They are as good as it gets for the price if you can get over the smell.
