As versatile a brush pen as you could ask for!
A great brush pen for just about anything! Takes a little practice for the finer lines but when mastered can lay down a hair thin line to solid black and anything in between. If careful and with a light touch you can get a dry brush effect over larger areas. Great for expresive and spontaneous sketches and freeing up your drawing style. Although there is no ink adapter that I am aware of you can easily rinse out a used cartridge and refill with an ink of your choice using a syringe. I found Noodlers inks seems to work well for me. Worth while just wiping the brush occasionally with a damp tissue to ensure a fine point and keep it clean from any ink build up, every now and again before refilling I will rinse the head assembly in water. I've never had a problem with the synthetic tip.Read full review...

Pretty good
Pros:
1. The brush nib is so accurate to use. I didn't think it would be able to produce thin lines but it does. I've used this only a few times so I can't comment on how well the brush is but so far, it's doing a good job.
Cons:
1. Colour output isn't as dark as I thought it would be. It's a bit gray. Not sure if this is the paper im using (rymans 200gsm)
2. This may or may not be a con depending on individual preference, but this pen is incredibly lightweight. It's just all plastic. Personally, i prefer it to have had some weight to it to make it feel a little more sturdy and to be honest, to not feel so cheap.
3. Pricing - it was almost £8 and came with two ink cartridges. I feel like it's a little bit expensive, as the pen itself, despite having a good brush tip, feels cheap.
I like it, I'd give it 3.5 stars, it would've been 4 had it had some weight to it. And it would've been 5 if the colour was more black.Read full review...

Very good value for the quality of the brush pen
Very good pen, affordable with a very fine and good brush tip and also with great ink flow too. Also comes with 2 refills.
Recommend it.

The best brush pen to date (and I've tried a few)
I have two of these and one of which (with the help of a rubber O ring and silicon grease) I've converted into a "eye dropper" pen.
It's reliable and if you give it a rise through with hot water every few cartridges it will last you years. Best to only use cartridges or fountain pen ink and NOT Indian ink or drawing inks.
Hope this helps - enjoy!Read full review...

Better than expected
I've been using this pen only for a few days and I'm really impressed with the effortless lines I can get and how consistent the ink flow is. The ink dries less black than I would prefer but I'm prepared to accept that. I'd call it a dark grey.
The pen feels good in the hand, much better than the uni pin brush pen I was using previously. Works very well on paper but I am mostly using it on stone so I hope the brush wears well over time. Read full review...

Pentel Brush Pen
What a great pen especially for art work. I mainly use it in most of my sketches & it comes with 2 refills so very handy if out & about.

1 ink-cartridge short of perfection.
The product is exactly that which I expect from Pentel, excellent. However, I suggest that " 1 Pen + 2 Refills " means 3 ink-cartridges in total.
