Staedtler makes fantastic transparency markers and these wet erase markers follow in that tradition. Vibrant colour and clear lines make them a joy to work with.The Good:Eight bright, vivid pens offer a gamut of options. I use these primarily for tabletop role-playing games and occasionally academic purposes. The fine points provide excellent detail-work without breaking down, and the smooth flow of ink makes for clean, clear art or words.These clean up like a dream. Apply some water or cleaner to the mat, and wipe. Colours will potentially stain if left on a surface for a long time, but I have yet to encounter problems with red, purple, black, or blue left for any length of time.The plastic storage container is sturdy and helpful.The MId:Due to the fine point, these pens struggle at creating thicker lines or broader strokes. You really need to apply pressure (not ideal) or go back over your work to see broader lines. I would prefer a mid-tip but finding them is very difficult.Verdict:Staedtler makes some of the best and are worth the premium for quality ink that won't run on you.
