The Paili 013 features an easy vacuum filling system - simply untwist the end cap, pull up and then push down when inserted into an ink bottle. The pressure change causes ink to flow into the barrel. The barrel is clear, so you can really get a great feel for how much ink is in your fountain pen. These systems hold a lot of ink, so this is a great daily pen as you won't have to worry about filling it as often. This is a surprisingly high quality resin for the price, and the grip is very smooth to hold.
This was from my May Inkredible box. For the price it's an awesome pen. It's also the first pen I had that doesn't post at the end when writing. So it has a lot of firsts for me. I find it writes pretty well I don't have much to judge it against. It's very easy to clean and flush. It did have some residual ink probably from testing still on it. So I'd recommend flushing it well when you get it.
So this was my first vacuum fountain pen. I have converters and piston filled. I liked the blue so I bought it. I won’t lie I made a mess the first time filling it up. But I have enjoyed writing with it. The one issue I notice is that every now and then the pen wants to have difficulty drawing ink when I’ve been writing 3+ letter pages straight. I think it has issues keeping up. But at the same time the size of the ink chamber means I can write for long periods of time before having to refill the pen. So for the price its still a good pen.
It a nice pen but not my favorite. It seems to leak a bit and bead up. And I got two of the exact same pen even the same color. I want to give it another try with different ink.
