Customers are satisfied with the performance of the ink brush. They mention that it works well enough, produces great results, and is an outstanding tool for fine, tight, detail work as well as for deep, bold. It works best when used in large spaces and works OK with prismacolor markers. It does work nicely as a brush, and works well for calligraphy and brush lettering. However, some customers have reported that the line work it accomplishes is great, but there are times when it is just too wet.

It is absolutely pretty, and the ink cartridge is so easy to put in I may dare call it foolproof. So while I will not be likely to produce any great art with this, I still like it. One of my favorite points is that, at least on the cheap grocery list slip I used to test it, the ink dried immediately and didn’t smear. I assume that will remain the case with higher quality paper designed to absorb ink. As a lefty, that makes it worth its weight in gold.

This brush pen allows for a large variety of mark making. A variety that can be increased even more by using paper with different textures. The ink flows freely and easily. As of yet, I've had no problems with leakage of any sort, which makes it pretty portable from my point of view.
One thing about this package, I should warn, is that the title misled me. With this "Pentel Arts Pocket Brush Pen with Refills, 1 Pen and 2 Refills" you are getting the one pen and two cartridges. There isn't one already in the pen which means you're going to use one of your "refills" immediately. And if you draw a lot, pick up a pack of refills to go along with it.
Also, once you install the ink, give the ink a minute or two to flow into the bristles. It won't work right away, so be patient.
My inspiration for getting this pen is from viewing the artwork of Yoji Shinkawa (Metal Gear Solid, Zone of the Enders). I really admired the varied strokes, line quality, and the confidence behind them. After having read an interview conducted with him, he highly recommended this pen. Hopefully, in a year or two, the bristles will wear out a bit and my line work will vary even more (I like a crappy brush, makes for some really characteristic line work).
-Bottom line-
If you're looking for a pen to help you build confidence in your line work (use that white out for highlights ;) ) while giving you a seemingly infinite variety of marks to make, this pen is for you. This is an excellent pen and this reviewer highly recommends it.
My new favorite brush pen. I've tried lots of different brands; Windsor and Newton, Copic, Prismacolor, Faber Castell, etc. This one overall is my favorite. It feels very similar to the Copic brush pen, if you like that one you'll like this one. If you'll only have/need a single brush pen, this is the one I'd recommend. Lays out ink beautifully, the soft brush tip is really fun to do searching lines with. You can get a great range of line sizes, only the finest of detail work will be hard to manage.
As I look back, I think that making this my first brush pen was a mistake, but luckily not a big one. If you are new to brush pens, this will be a difficult one to learn on since it is extremely flexible and sensitive. It requires a very smooth hand to get a smooth line out of it. Based on my experience, I would suggest getting something like the Tombow Fudenosuke Brush pen set that has both a soft and firm brush pen. Either soft or firm is much firmer than the brush on the Pentel, but after practicing smooth lines with the Tombow pens, I showed a much improved level of control with the Pentel. It still requires practice with the Pentel, but my calligraphy was now "Oh, your learning" as opposed to "You must have the hiccups while writing this"
For the refilling capability of the pen, I have used up one cartridge in it, and proceeded to refill the empty cartrdige with some Pilot Iroshizuki green ink. With the refilling of the ink, the flow immediately improved, though I was still pushing out lots of black ink, After a couple days of light use, I am starting to see green tints to the ink. Dont expect this to be a quick change color pen, the feed holds a lot of ink in it that wont come out without something flushing it. There is probably a way to flush it, but I didnt want to go through that process, as I had no need for any particular color.
The only real con for this pen was on the initial inking, it took a lot of effort to get the ink to flow to the brush and saturate it.
