Review: Super Fountain Pen at a great price point - This is a my first fountain pen since school days and I have been so impressed with it. It’s great value for money and is very comfortable to hold and write with. It’s really smooth and flowing too. No blotches or having to shake it to get the ink flowing through. German engineering shines through it. I chose the medium nib , you can purchase the finer nibs to use too which is a bonus. It doesn’t come with any cartridges so I ordered Lamy ones too which I found easy to insert. Lamy also sell a converter so you can use bottled ink if you prefer but I’ve not tried it. Overall , I’m really happy with my purchase. It’s real quality , looks stylish and delivery was speedy
Review: Fab pens as always - Honestly such a good day to day and note taking pen. I re-brought a Safari Lamy as it’s good for taking brief notes for everyday but for long essay writing I use my Lamy 200. This Pen is really good for all levels of writing has a good grip and can be versatile with the ink cartridges and the Nibs. Make sure to check the nib is best for you- you can change the nibs anyways. I’m left handed using the F nib (fine) which is recommended for general and particularly Left handed writers as the flow of ink doesn’t gush out, the thickness is standard and quick dries to prevent smudging with a nice writing comfort flow but it’s all about preference and how thick you want the ink too. Loads of different colours all same size fit and really good grip so would recommend to anyone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many cartridges does it come with, and it says for use with the blue cartridge, im assuming putting a black cartridge in there will do no harm?**
A: Well this may not be relavent but although the pen only comes with one cartridge,as a Registrar I have to use a special ink.So I purchased a converter to allow me to use the ink. I have used many fountain pens in my time,all of which cost three times or more than this,but I must say this is the best pen I have ever had.So maybe you might consider purchasing a converter and a bottle of ink and step back in time as well as use less plastic...you will not be sorry. Anita

**Q: Can you confirm the appropriate converter? (eg Z24 or Z28 etc)**
A: The Z28 converter was previously the Z24, and is suitable or all fountain models of the LAMY AL-star, LAMY joy, LAMY nexx, LAMY nexx M,
LAMY safari and LAMY vista range.

**Q: how is it being packaged? Does the pen come in hard plastic? I want to avoid plastic packaging! Thank you!**
A: It can come in a carton package. I also can wrap it as a gift if you want...

**Q: how long will it take on delivering?**
A: Not long at all considering its sent out 1st class and usually dispatched within 24 hours(excluding weekends)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light, comfortable to hold, writes smoothly
*by P***E on 2 December 2020*

I have always used a fountain pen for writing, ever since I can remember. From the old school days when you're fingers would turn the colour of the ink - no matter where on the barrel you held the pen, to adult life where I was able to afford more expensive pens (and not suffer the painted fingers.) This is a cheap and cheerful fountain pen that is light, easy to hold and use, and works smoothly. It is not often that you find a budget pen that actually works without being beaten into submission, so it was a nice change to find this one which does. Inserting the ink cartridges can take a fair bit of pressure so you need to be careful when inserting one. Once in, the ink flows easily and smoothly to the nib, and I've not yet had any scattering or spotting when using this pen, even if it's sat for a day or two without being used. Cleaning similarly is easy and simple to complete, with a couple sharp shakes to clear the water and add a new cartridge. This doesn't need to be done too often, but once in a while it does the pen good to get a flush through. The majority of fountain pens are medium nib, offering thicker lines and lettering, this is fine under most circumstances, but sometimes you need something that offers a finer result. Construction is pretty solid and clean - no rough edges or burrs. The pen is completely transparent which is strange to begin with, but it does mean you can instantly see how much ink is remaining. It's quite a thick pen, so should be comfortable for people who can't close their fingers easily, and it's light weight means little to no fatigue from using it. The bottom of the barrel is shaped, a curved lower part that sits on the middle finger, and two carved 'flat' areas for thumb and forefinger. These appear to be designed to give a good grip and to ensure that the nib is correctly positioned so the nib is correctly positioned to guarantee smooth ink flow. It also discourages the habit of rotating the pen in the fingers while using it and thereby disconnecting or incorrectly aligning the nib. No cartridges are supplied with the pen, so you will need to buy those separately. Lamy do have a plunger converter that fits this pen, and allows you to use ink from a bottle rather than cartridges. I don't have an opinion either way as I use both bottle ink and cartridges in my pens. For young people, cartridges are probably the best way to go as they are least likely to have an accident with those. There's nothing worse than 50ml of ink getting spilled. I'm pleased with the item to be honest, it's a good pen for everyday general use. I was also quite surprised at the quality of this pen. I may be sceptical, but I really don't associate quality with low prices. But, this pen delivers on it's promise. A good quality, reliable fountain pen that writes well and is easy to use. Delivery was quick, and this arrived in excellent condition.
