    Review

    Highly rated as one of the best micron pens, architects can’t go wrong with getting this set for producing crystal-clear and detailed sketches.

    What Customers Are Saying

    Many customers were pleased with their purchase of this Micron set. Some buyers commented that they were illustrators and professionals, so they needed the best pens on the market. The set was praised for excelling in all areas: providing good ink, being easy to write with, having great flow output and generally not smearing easily.

    Some artists had trouble using these pens with other drawing tools like color pencils, however. Architects who work with multiple artistic mediums should keep this in mind, but the pens work great by themselves.

    Pros
    • No-smear ink makes this set useful for left-handed use
    Cons
    • The set should be replaced over time to ensure maximum performance

    Review

    Drafting pens don’t need to be expensive in order to provide amazing value. This TUL set offers enough pens to spread out to various workstations, and its build quality is sufficient to produce professional work.

    What Customers Are Saying

    One buyer made an excellent point during a review of this pen model. They noted that there is a delicate balance between the performance of a pen and its cost, and the best pen might not be the one that outperforms others. Writing tools can be lost, so an ideal pen should be both inexpensive and be able to write well.

    This TUL set received high marks across the board for ease of use and ink flow, so it should be useful for architects who need high-grade pens without breaking the bank.

    Pros
    • Gliding-style writing intended to sketching fatigue
    Cons
    • Pens may degrade faster than other models

    Review

    Good .2 mm architecture marker pens can be hard to find, for thin nibs may be prone to fall apart quickly. This set provides the value to always have a fine-line pen on hand, for 12 units can be picked up to always have a backup close by.

    What Customers Are Saying

    Most reviews mentioned that that these pens are a great buy due to the stellar ink color that they output. There was criticism over the durability of the nib, however. Some reviewers found that the pen became unusable before running out of ink due to the nib getting bent or losing its straight edge. One reviewer took the matter into their own hands.

    Utilizing their engineering skills, they were able to customize the nib to give it more durability. For architects who need extremely fine lines at an affordable price, this set will provide the supply to never be without the proper tool for detailed work.

    Pros
    • Low price point can make this pen bulk-order friendly
    Cons
    • Fiber tip can wear down quickly
