I never bother with reviews, this is the first one I’m writing just to highlight how bad the product is. Instead of having the washers one behind the other, they are placed side by side, resulting in the tape gathering at an angle, coming off all the time, and needing adjustment. The tip is also very soft, making you fear it might break if you press it a little harder, which is natural since you can't easily erase what you want. After 5 minutes of fruitless attempts, it broke completely and I threw it away. It's a shame because I thought I was safe trusting the name Pelikan. It can't be a Chinese product, but it's most likely inspired and manufactured by some chimpanzees in some jungle in Africa. The worst thing I have ever bought in my entire life. Finally, the site should allow for a zero rating. And if they think I'm exaggerating, let the administrators buy the product.
