Toys and Games Reviews of Green Original PenAgain Pens
Customer Review: Best of class
Summary: 4 Stars
I already had a Freeform Neo Bird pen, and was not impressed, when I discovered the PenAgain. The PenAgain succeeds in most of the places where the similarly-priced Freeform fails:
- This pen is symmetrical. You can use it right-handed or left-handed.
- It's better-looking up close. I would still like a nicer-looking choice, but at least when I look at it up close, I don't see cheap silver-toned plastic. I also find the design of this pen to be more appealing visually.
- In general, it is easy to hold and control. The thin, rounded "arms" are comfortable, and nothing pinches or places pressure between my knuckles. This really is an improvement over "regular" pens.
Other good points:
- The plastic has a nice, satiny finish that feels very neutral (neither sticky nor rough) on my fingers.
- Refillable, so you can use other colors.
- The ink doesn't seem to mind being upside-down, though there's little point to actually *writing* upside-down with it, since doing so defeats the purpose of using gravity to help you hold the pen on the paper.
Minor gripes:
- It's slightly awkward for a smaller hand, though not as awkward as the Freeform pen. A shorter version, if possible, would be more comfortable and better balanced for a child or a woman with small hands.
- It's nice that it's refillable, but I'm not sure it will last long enough to need a refill. As other reviewers have noted, the PenAgain's combined clip/retractable tip is not particularly sturdy, and if it breaks, your pen is ruined. For this reason, I would say that it's probably a bad idea to use the clip for clipping.
Things that would make this pen a five-star product:
- A sturdier or more sensible tip/clip design; or, sell tip/clips separately or along with the refills, so you can get more use out of your pen.
- Make it available in smaller AND larger sizes, because I'm guessing that it's as awkward for a larger hand as it is for a smaller one.
- Make a spiffier model that you could be given as a nice gift.
- Someday, produce it in the USA!
Description of Green Original PenAgain Pens
The patented line of PenAgain pens are ergonomically designed to adapt to the contour of the hand, thus alleviating stresses normally observed with a standard pen. The natural weight of the writer's hand provides sufficient pressure to apply ink to the paper. This eliminates the need to grip the pen allowing the thumb and forefinger to serve merely as guides. The PenAgain may help alleviate the symptoms of Writers Cramp, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Calluses, RSI, and Arthritis.Toys and Games
