5.0 out of 5 stars Great pen, very luxurious look & feel for a reasonable price
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2013
Verified Purchase
I've used the basic G2 pens for years (their gel ink lets me write all day without getting hand cramps the way I do with regular ballpoints). On a bit of a lark, when I was purchasing some G2 refills, I decided to get a G2 Limited and a G2 Pro at the same time.

How they compare (also, see the user photo I've attached to this listing):

Regular G2 -- writes well and smoothly, under $2 each if you buy a dozen
 Pilot G2 Pro  -- a bit thicker, heavier, more padding in the grip, under $3
G2 Limited (this pen) -- about the same thickness as the G2 Pro, considerably heavier, better finish / metal (vs. plastic) clip, much "squishier" grip (but not to the "Dr. Grip" level), about $11

Personally, I go back & forth between the Pro and Limited as to which is my "favorite." The G2 Limited is nicer looking (might be important in some offices), and has a nice heft, more expensive than the rest -- but still a bargain compared to the "usual suspects" of fancy pens. The G2 Pro is sufficiently professional looking for most offices, still has a good heft to it, and has a grip that's padded -- but not excessively (to my tastes).

So I guess the choice comes down to how much weight, how much padding, and how much eye appeal you're looking for. As I mentioned, I've used G2 pens for years and never had one break on me -- I'm still using some on their 3rd and 4th refill. So, tough to go wrong with them! Get a Pro or a Limited (as a function of your taste), then buy it refills for years.

*** Usage update 7/2019 ***
I finally had a G2 Limited break — after 6 years of daily use and dozens of refills. Definitely a good value.

Color: Barrel Color VariesPattern: PenVerified Purchase
I have this pen in multiple colors, and get ink refills in different colors also. It is wonderfully comfortable to hold with the gel grip. The ink flows nicely. At some point in life I decided I'd had enough of pens with ink that clumps up, or hard plastic that slides between my fingers and decided that I use pens enough that I should treat myself. I keep the blue one in my purse, the gold one at my desk, and the red one just ends up somewhere in the house where I used it last.

I take a lot of notes during class, pages worth, and these pens are still my favorite. Pricey, yes, but I can write for hours, homework, too, and my hands don't hurt. Smooth writing, comfortable grip that so far stays without riding up or down the barrel.

I love everything about this limited edition metal barrel pen and have several in black. The way it looks and writes is exceptional. I wanted one in red but was surprised that I got a silver one. The silver is really beautiful but not red. If you read the small print on the description: "The barrel color varies". This means that they will send you a random color pen. Less one star for no control over choosing the color of your pen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cheap rollerball pen ever!!!
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2013
Verified Purchase
Recently i have found myself writing more and more. To be exact, i find myself taking more and more notes now. After having made the switch to fountain pens(FP), i find that FP's aren't designed to write on everything. The quality of the paper affects how the pen writes. As such, i found myself in need of a simple pen that would allow me to write on anything.

I have always loved the Pilot G2's. However, my biggest gripe with it was that it was uncomfortable to write with. I found that regular G2's were too light and the pen itself was not aesthetic at all. Not only that, the grip bad was uncomfortable to hold. All this was extremely noticeable after using FPs. In comes the G2 limited. For only ten dollars, i found a pen that was heavier than original G2's, and a grip that is significantly more comfy. The pen itself is pretty sturdy and it writes beautifully thanks to the G2 ink. I use this pen as my daily carry. It is always in my pocket for when i need to sign things or jot things down really quickly. I don't use this for when i find myself taking notes in class because a fountain pen is more comfy. However, if i were to recommend a cheap rollerball pen, it would be this one.

My biggest complaint with the G2 is that the ink runs out relatively fast. Compared to FP's the ink last a bit longer, but the refills are quite expensive. This would be the best pen ever if i can refill the pen with my fountain pen ink. This would significantly reduce the cost as well and would allow me to choose my own ink (i love noodlers series of ink for fountain pens). Five stars for the pen itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding pen and value
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have tried lots of different rollerball pens and gel inks. In my opinion, Pilot makes the best writing rollerball pens with the best ink, and their refills contain a large reservoir of ink compared to others. I love their basic G-2 pens, especially in a medium (.7 mm) or broad (1.0mm) tip, but they are plastic and look like regular disposable office supply pens. Put one of those cartridges in this G-2 Limited, however, and you get a pen that writes as well or better than anything else and is very comfortable to hold and write with for long periods. Also, it is durable (the barrel is metal, not plastic), good looking, and a tremendous value. Put all that together and this is one outstanding pen. Although I have several nicer, much more expensive Parker Sonnets, some Monteverdes, and a couple of Watermans, this is my go-to pen for everyday use and writes better than any of those. If lost, I would definitely buy another (but I already have a back up, so I guess you could say I did).

This pen is among the best I've used. It's slightly more expensive then the other versions of the G2 but it looks much nicer and feels more significant and comfortable in your hand. The initial investment is especially worth it given how cheap the refills are.This pen also makes a great gift for a professional or coworker who uses a pen often and who may currently have a subpar experience!
