IM Fountain Pen | Dark Espresso | Medium Nib with Blue Ink Refill | Gift Box

Lovely pens, I’ve had three so far. I don’t use them too heavily but the last one snapped at the barrel. Previous versions haven’t had this issue so would recommend the style and type. Write well, are just the right weight and are easy to grip and doesn’t leave a mark on your finger.

I originally bought a Parker 51 but was extremely disappointed (the resin body scuffs permanently when you simply post the stainless steel cap) so I returned it and got the Parker IM instead. The box it comes in is no match for the 51's, which is very premium, but the pen itself is better quality, being made entirely of stainless steel - with no scuffing issue when posting the cap. It's a nice weight and well balanced, even with the cap posted, it writes well with no scratchiness or stalling, and the finish (I went for the Dark Espresso) is gorgeous. With the difference in price I was able to order the pen, an ink converter and two bottles of Quink for only 59p more than just the Parker 51.

I bought this pen to help with school work and I found it was amazing. The weight in your hand is balanced and comfortable to write with. I found the weight often helps form your words better. Ink is very flowy and seldom smudges. Runs out over a week or so. Needs to be replaced frequently. It is inexpensive though so it is not to worry.

Comfortable to write with, a nice weight and size, a great pen! One thing to mention is that it isn't really 'espresso' coloured as per the description, more 'gunmetal grey' which was a bit disappointing.

Pen is a Christmas present and looks beautiful

So just received the Dark Espresso coloured Parker Fountain pen. It looks different to the one in the picture - in reality it is more a silver or lighter version of gun metal grey. Partly disappointed as Espresso is a coffee based drink so was expecting something even remotely brown, not silver. That said the pen itself is great. Has a nice weight to it, neither too heavy nor too light. I used to have a Parker fountain pen when at school and have completely forgotten how smooth it was to use. Great pen, excellent delivery - def something I can recommend if gifting for kids/young teens etc just be wary of the colour as it may not be exactly how you expected.

I love this pen. I love Parker fountain pens. It writes beautifully after the nib was worn to my writing style. Great value at £24.99, but went to buy a second. Gone up to £44. No.

Lovely fountain pen. No too chunky to hold and the flow is beautiful on paper.
