My new Twisbi fountain pen is easy to fill, feels good in my hand, and writes smoothly. I highly recommend this pen.

I wanted to order pens in a variety of nib sizes to start out with, and the stub nibs on this Eco has been a pleasant surprise. It gives my handwriting some extra flair, and I can also fake some black lettering font with it. The cerulean blue color is quite pretty, and the ink capacity is so large you can use up almost a whole ink sample. I can see why so many fountain pen enthusiasts have a large collection of Ecos.

I love my new TWSBI eco fountain pen. I really like the way you fill it, and it looks good with the ink in it. I am going to buy another one that is clear to use to try out all my sample inks. It doesn't post very well, but the feel of it while you are writing is great.

i really love this pen. There are some paper that i write on the pen has a hard time writing. however, for the most part, it is a great pen. i wanted a fine point pen, but i accidentally ordered an extra fine; however, it is still a wonderful pen, and want to order more.

so this is one of my favorite TWSBI ECO's. because of the nib. I have developed an issue with TWSBI's, which I find disappointing. and that is inconsistency in feel, smoothness, and line width in their various pens. now that I have a medium amount of TWSBI pens, I feel that the #4 nib is my favorite. this is in the ECO, GO and Vac Mini. had a bad GO nib, in broad, that TWSBI replaced. horrible hard starts and skips, right out of the box. the broad they mailed me has no issue at all, but boy is it broad. can't use it for everyday writing of notes and stuff at work. I use if for headings to large writing of jotting down quick self reminders and such. back to the ECO: this one I bought in fine and it is smooth and perfect. like my VAC mini. Fine, smooth, soft, perfect, and constantly consistent. I have about 5 GO's. except for that one broad nib that was horrible out of the box, the GO's I have are fine and even two extra fine and are more like a fine. smooth comfy. not a single problem. have returned a few 580s that arrived with skipping or scratchy. completely different from the fine nibs in the VAC min and the ECO's and GO's. Have no idea why there would be such and issue. so have decided to settle on their pens with the #4 nib. the bummer about that is that my favorite feel, weight, length and such pen is the 580. and have two that are just ideal. but have had to return 3 so far. and it bothers me to return a pen, as I know the burden this places on a small business. but when I am just not gonna use a pen due to skipping or obnoxious scratchiness, then I just have to return it. I wish TWSBI could do a better job of even reasonable consistency in the nibs in their pens. I would buy them in every style and every color if they were better at this. The medium in my first TWSBI, a white ECO, is perfect. then the medium in the next pen I bought, the 580 Iris is much wider. usable so I kept it but much wider and wetter and cannot be used for various tasks. I also wish they did more colors in the 580's - which resin grip. I love the resin grip in the 580 and not so much the metal grips. Anyway, my experience with TWSBI is bitter sweet. keep trying with them, but dismayed at so many issues.
