Just Save Your Money...
Short story: Just save your money, who needs a pen that writes upside down or in space anyways? You can find short pens elsewhere for a fraction of the price.
Pros: It writes. It's a nice quality material. Small, easily fits in a pocket.
Cons:
Price (and refill price).
It easily starts unscrewing (which is how you replace/refill the cartridge). Although it's never come apart on me, I'm afraid it will, and parts will randomly get lost at an inopportune time.
If you put the cap on the back when writing, the ring that comes attached constantly "dings" against the metal cap. Not that pleasant when writing in the quiet of nature. Either remove the ring or don't attach the cap to the back.

The packaging claims to write on everything and it may write on a lot of things, but I'll tell you it doesn't write on write-in-the-rain paper. This pen was side-by-side with some write-in-the rain note books in the store (this store didn't sell specific write-in-the rain pens) . I asked some employees if it would work and they thought it would. I don't have an issue with the pen, but I thought it was very poor product planning by REI.

Does everything it says it will.
Been shopping REI for over 50 years, and always on the lookout for new and updated gear. From Seattle to San Carlos, and my local store in Reno I shop the store once a month, just to keep up with new products. I purchase something every time, and none of the merchandise has been disappointing. Thanks REI for so many years of good camping. Don Miller Reno, Nv.
