5175 Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges Refillable
Product Review: OCEAN PARK∞ / 5175 Fountain Pen Set

Overall Rating: 3.5 / 5 Stars
This product appears to be a value-packed beginner fountain pen set, likely marketed under names like "Ocean Park∞" with the model number 5175. It's clearly designed for students, young writers, or anyone new to fountain pens.
"Bullet Pen" 5175 Fountain Pen Set with Refillable Ink Cartridges. This set includes three fountain pens in a dolphin/ocean theme, each with a different color (blue, cream, and pink) and a dolphin-shaped cap. The pens use "5171" refillable ink cartridges, and the set comes with a total of four cartridges (two black, two blue). The pens are suitable for students and are marketed as an eco-friendly and cost-effective option for fountain pen users. The pens feature a polished stainless steel nib and a plastic body.
Pros:
Excellent Value Pack: The biggest selling point is the inclusion of 3 pens and 4 ink cartridges. This is a great starter kit that allows you to have multiple pens inked with different colors or to share with friends and family.
Ergonomic "Dolphin" Design (正姿海豚): The pen boasts a "Dolphin" grip, which is an ergonomic, molded section designed to teach and encourage a proper tripod grip. This is an outstanding feature for helping children develop good handwriting habits and for anyone who struggles with finger fatigue.
Convenience of Cartridges: The use of standard international-style short cartridges (as indicated by the included "0膜蓝" or blue ink carts) makes this pen very user-friendly for beginners. Cartridges are clean, easy to swap, and readily available from many brands.
Child-Friendly & Fun: The bright colors (like the "Membrane Blue" shown) and playful, lightweight design make these pens appealing and non-intimidating for young users.
Cons:
Questionable Brand Clarity: The packaging shows two different brand names ( "OCEAN PARK∞"), which is typical of many generic products manufactured for various distributors. This can make it difficult to find consistent information or guarantee quality control across batches.
Likely Basic Nib Performance: As an entry-level, mass-produced pen, the nibs are almost certainly simple steel nibs. While they will write, they may suffer from common issues of cheaper pens, such as occasional scratchiness, inconsistent ink flow, or needing slight adjustment out of the box. They are not meant for premium writing experience.
Plastic Build Quality: The pens are constructed from lightweight plastic to keep costs low. While this makes them comfortable for long writing sessions, they may not feel very durable or premium and could be prone to cracking if mishandled.
Limited Ink Information: The included blue ink cartridges are a standard washable blue. The quality of this ink is unknown—it may be prone to feathering or bleeding on lower-quality paper, which is common with many basic inks.
Final Verdict:
The 5175 Fountain Pen set is a good, no-fuss introduction to fountain pens, especially for a young audience.
You should buy this set if:
You are a parent looking for an affordable, ergonomic pen to help your child learn to write.
You are a student or curious beginner who wants to try fountain pens without a significant investment.
You want multiple pens to have different ink colors ready to use.
You should avoid this set if:
You are an experienced pen enthusiast looking for a high-quality, durable, smooth-writing instrument.
You prefer a heavier, metal-bodied pen with a premium feel.
You want to use a converter for bottled ink (compatibility would need to be confirmed, though it likely accepts a standard international converter).
In essence, this is a functional and thoughtful tool for its intended purpose—learning and casual use—but it is not a refined writing instrument for aficionados.
