Congratulations to LaLulu2020 for winning the FWP Carousel fountain pen! Please contact me at inkquiringminds@gmail.com within 48hrs with your name and mailing address to receive your prize. Thanks to everyone for participating!
Oh my goodness! Thanks so much, Doug! This is the first time I've ever won a prize draw. This Carousel pen will be such a wonderful addition to my sketching fountains. I currently have a couple of fude fountains and had been looking into Kaweco until I discovered your fantastic channel, randomly.
I failed to mention that FWP "Stroke of Midnight" is a shimmering ink. It doesn't show up well with a thin line but the ink definitely has a silver shimmer to it.
Nice pen! It reminded me on first glance of just the sort of thing a stationery store would sell with their themed ink and paper/journal; but it would hold up at work. Thanks for the review.
Fun review, any thing with bugs bunny is a joy. As for the pen; looks like a Lamy Safari and a Kaweco sport had a baby. I enjoy my Lamy so I am curious about the carousel.
First of all,ove your channel and especially love your hat. The design of the pen and the box is obviously done by an expert. Proof that great design doesn't need to break the bank. The Carousel would be a wonderful daily write pen. And the ink buddy...I'll definately pick one of those up. Thanks.
A very nice pen indeed. The way that the pen pays attention in the small details like molding seam and the end molding gates, parts which are outright ignored by other inexpensive pens, just shows the dedication and ingenuity of the company. The stamping on the nib is unique and I like it. Hopefully will buy one someday when I can handle the shipping cost to get it to India. Otherwise it might be a good candidate for a beginner pen.
Right on! I have had so many questions and curiosity about those pens. Great review and thank you! Also, that “Junk-in-yo-trunk” video caught me off guard. Great laughter ensued!
This is such an improvement over their first pen! It is indeed a very thoughtful, well executed design, and it looks like a lot of fun. I also love the transparency about place of manufacture. Good luck to everyone (including me ;) ). Finally, thank you for designing the InkBuddy. I'm not a huge Ferris Wheel Press ink fan but I know lots of people love the ink and loath the bottle, the design of which is cute but impractical to the point of being silly.
That Stroke of Midnight is calling me…two pen pals used it in their letters and now you! Lol, I should put it in my cart tonight. Great review as always!
A wonderful review for a pen that I’ve been looking at. I do love the one Ferris Wheel Press ink that I have, and the company is compelling, especially for a Canadian like me. Thanks for the information!
That nib design looks neat! It's amazing when the designers pay attention to the small details. I personally think that 'ink buddy' was the hidden gem of the video.
First time seeing you. Just getting in to fountain pens, so I'm voraciously consuming reviews. You introduced me to a new company/pen/ink, gave a great breakdown of the pen, with attention to minor details and even made me chuckle. Excellent review, I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to more.
Nice looking pen Doug... But the detail and design of the packaging are what screams "Quality" to me. I found myself gazing at the box as you were describing the instrument. Yes, I was paying attention to the pen as well. Great review as always!
Sorry for viewing this video so late! That is a very nice review of a beautiful ink and pen duo; they are certainly made for each other 😉 It is nice to see a Canadian company making such increasingly successful presence in the fountain pen/ink market. The design [thanks for the thorough review of the design of this pen!] and procurement of components from Taiwan, assembly, marketing, and shipping are not simple processes, so it is fantastic that Ms. Lu and her husband are so successful in their operation. Thanks, and keep up the excellent work!
Stroke Of Midnight looks stunning!! I don’t own any Ferris Wheel Press Inks or Pens but am definitely adding both to my wish list. Thank you for sharing! And good luck to all who enter the giveaway! 🤞🏼✨
Yeah, Canada! It's nice to see another good thing coming out of the true north! Nice pen, and they have nice inks too. I look forward to see what other inks they come out with.
I first got to know Ferris Wheel Press through a Kickstarter campaign for several of their inks. I chose the Bluegrass Velvet, which I've come to like a lot. I was blown away by the product presentation and quality, which was quite impressive. The beautiful round bottle of ink came in a velvet pouch, which of course matched the color of the ink! Since then, I've tried several of their colors. My favorite so far are Tanzanite Sky and Algonquin Maple. Stroke of Midnight looks very attractive, and as you said, that ink and the Carousel pen are a perfect match.
Thanks for another witty and balanced review. I bet this would be wonderful for sketching with that Koh I Noor 5640-type grip section and EF nib which is ideal for details! The PenBBS 350-type round shaft means the artist could move their fingers further up the barrel if they wanted to do larger cross-hatches. Lightweight is a big plus because it would feel so freeing for the wrist.
Congratulations, LaLulu2020! You've WON the Carousel! Please contact me at inkquiringminds@gmail.com within 48hrs with your name and mailing address to receive your prize!
Thanks for this review! I’d not made up my mind about giving their pens a try, though I thoroughly enjoy the inks, and this video has been my “add to cart” decision maker.
Heh. You finally got me at ‘it’s FAST!’ Pen speed really does make a difference in writing when the ideas are flying, and I’m not sure I have a single truly fast pen right now. Nice review. Really thorough and helpful! Thank you!
Thank you for a detailed review. I would be a bit worried about how long lasting is the soft plastic exterior, but the nib, which is to me the most important part sounds lovely!
As usual..a great review. Like a snap cap, engraved nib, included converter and Canadian co. Oh yes, that it writes well. I too lov a carousel 🎠 lots of fond memories with Gramps and the Cony Island carousel.
Hi Doug, fast, smooth,.wet and light writing... So, I can just write like it’s a sport car... and I do like thin lines... I adore this fountain pen, it should be an awesome fountain pen... Top quality.
Awesome review as always. I have seen a lot about this brand but have not seen any of their products in person yet. Hopefully at the Baltimore show, someone will have some.
Another great video! Wow, a paisano from St. Catharines. I’m and old Collegiate guy graduated in ‘86… just before going globetrotting down to Mexico for a few (30) years. I’m back… Thanks for the video!!!
Oh, I didn't know they also produced fountain pens. My first idea was "Ah, a grown up Kaweco Sport". It seems to be a nice pen and could be a good EDC pen.
Thanks for the review, I always enjoy your videos. The pen reminds me of my favorite really cheap pen, the jinhao 166 with lamy style nibs that can be exchanged easily.
Thank you for such a wonderful review, I love how smooth the pen writes during your video and good to know a little bit of history about the company as well.
I love this company, the design and artist look of the products and the inks i like the fact that they different pen as i was not a fan of the other paintbrush pen. Also its Canadian i try to support Canadian businesses when i can
I tried one of their brass and lacquered pens at the Fountain Pen Hospital. They had a sample pen, but at that time they were only planning to carry the ink. I was surprised at how well the pen wrote.
What a fantastic looking pen in a gorgeous blue. Have had Ferris Wheel Press on my heavy interest list for a while now. Wish they were more in my budget in Australia!
Another great review. This seems like it would be a great addition to an EDC. I like having a snap cap pen in my daily drivers for quick notes. Good luck to everyone!
Interesting review, and now I’m interested even more in this brand. I didn’t know they were Canadian. My first thought (as you mentioned): serious Kaweco vibes from that cap. But not in a bad way.
i enjoyed your review. i am new to the fountain pen world and i am unfamiliar with this pen company. your review was helpful and informative and you sold me on this pen! thank you for sharing. ;) i have been drawn to the kaweco pen in style but i am unsure if i would like the size of it and i also like the idea of supporting a canadian company.
@@InkquiringMinds I hope they do well with them! FWP seems like a good company, and we know Reids is a great b&m pen store, and there are far too few of those!
Received the turquoise version today.Narrower and longer than the Kaweco Sport, but fits my large hand perfectly and a really good steel nib. Spot on with all the details they manage to achieve with this pen.A real keeper!
Very nice review as always! And funny as always too :) Thank you! I was just looking at this pen few days ago and couldn’t find any reviews… Now I ‘now it all!
Professor Doug, I am pleased to see some local flavour to the pen business. I believe that I may need to take a little side journey in my travels to visit Ferris Wheel Press. Perhaps they have other secret delights to uncover. I will report back with any information.
Thank you Doug for this interesting review. The comment I retain for the Carousel pen is that it allows you to write fast. Sometime this is important when your thoughts are just rushing out of your mind by way of a sudden inspiration. AH !!!
Thanks for the great review. I have the Brush pen of FWP but it's way too thin for my liking. This one looks pretty cool. Of course I'm with you on the nib as I like gushers - but sometimes a finer nib is o.k. for some things that you might write. Cool little pen!
I've lost my home internet connection for the time being, so I was doubly pleased to find this review while spending the weekend with friends. Since I prefer a fine line, your only real drawback for this pen is an advantage from my point of view. The blue looks like the best color of the lot, with the vanilla coming in second. Thanks as always for your thoughtful reviews. Paul
Their darker inks seem really good. I have yet to make one my Ink of the Month, but maybe later this year Tanzanite Sky will make the cut. This pen would be good to put that in!
This looks like a very well thought out pen, I really like how all the different design facets fit together. Looks an sounds to me like this would be an ideal pen for use with a bullet journal, Hmmm now there's a thought....
This is an intriguing pen, both because of the quality features you highlighted in your review, and because it is very similar indeed to a Kaweco pen. I’m thinking about the Perkeo model, that has slight differences here and there but overall keeps the same faceted design and snap-cap mechanism. Even some of the available colour choices bear some resemblance, but on the Carousel there’s definitely a lot more care put on the packaging, as the Perkeo usually comes wrapped inside a simple plastic envelope, but in my opinion there’s definitely room for a close comparison video in the future: just some food for thought. Both pens look like good choices for an EDC, but so far I haven’t had the chance to try any Ferris Wheel Press FP, as they are quite difficult to find in Italy, where I live.
Such a pretty pen, I love the horse stamped nib, one of my favorite pend I own is my Tools To Live By Black Chat which has a cat face stamped nib and I'm lucky I got it because I've checked the page and they're sold out. FWP makes it very hard not to go overboard when shopping, though their prices thankfully slow me down when I do buy something lol
I’m in Lethbridge! Hey! I have stroke of midnight and just love it! I have never been just a black or blue ink girl lol. I always have to snazz things up! I also have a Carousel pen and I like it! I have the Tiffany blue one which is called the same name as their ink Tumultuous Tides.😁 I love to support Canadian companies. I buy there ink and I have Stroke of Midnight, Tumultuous Tides and April Showers. Love them!
Thanks so much Mr. Doug, another informative pen review. The Carousel packaging is definitely impressive and I like the themed approach to this design. Definitely seeing a Canadian Pen in my future perhaps paired with a Stroke of Midnight - you're influence always adds intrigue to my weekend online shopping adventures. Cheers.

FWP do, in fact, pair the Carousel with ink and a journal that are theme matched on their site.
Fun review, any thing with bugs bunny is a joy. As for the pen; looks like a Lamy Safari and a Kaweco sport had a baby. I enjoy my Lamy so I am curious about the carousel.

Right on! I have had so many questions and curiosity about those pens. Great review and thank you!
Also, that “Junk-in-yo-trunk” video caught me off guard. Great laughter ensued!
Hehe! I'm glad. When I previewed this video for Winn, at the "Junk in yo Trunk" cut, she whacked my arm and said "Ohh Douglas!!!"
@@InkquiringMinds it was funny and it was on point. Maybe too on the nose, but it was on point .
Pen looks interesting, I really like the color! Thank you for great review and the opportunity! Good luck everyone 🍀!
I’m loving their inks especially the bigger bottles. The pen is cute but I feel like my Kawecos are better for me for EDC purposes.
This is such an improvement over their first pen! It is indeed a very thoughtful, well executed design, and it looks like a lot of fun. I also love the transparency about place of manufacture. Good luck to everyone (including me ;) ).
Finally, thank you for designing the InkBuddy. I'm not a huge Ferris Wheel Press ink fan but I know lots of people love the ink and loath the bottle, the design of which is cute but impractical to the point of being silly.

That Stroke of Midnight is calling me…two pen pals used it in their letters and now you! Lol, I should put it in my cart tonight.
Great review as always!
You should!
A wonderful review for a pen that I’ve been looking at. I do love the one Ferris Wheel Press ink that I have, and the company is compelling, especially for a Canadian like me. Thanks for the information!
I totally agree!
Great to see a Canadian Company making a mark in the Fountain Pen industry. Look forward to future offerings.
That nib design looks neat! It's amazing when the designers pay attention to the small details. I personally think that 'ink buddy' was the hidden gem of the video.
Thanks for the compliment about the Ink Buddy!
First time seeing you. Just getting in to fountain pens, so I'm voraciously consuming reviews. You introduced me to a new company/pen/ink, gave a great breakdown of the pen, with attention to minor details and even made me chuckle. Excellent review, I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to more.

Nice looking pen Doug... But the detail and design of the packaging are what screams "Quality" to me. I found myself gazing at the box as you were describing the instrument. Yes, I was paying attention to the pen as well.
Great review as always!
Totally agree
I love the look of their large round bottles. Thanks for the video. I've been wanting to know more about there pens for a little while now.
Glad to help!
What a lovely shade of blue. Have been hearing a lot about their inks. Will have to give them a try soon.
Sorry for viewing this video so late! That is a very nice review of a beautiful ink and pen duo; they are certainly made for each other 😉

It is a shimmering ink.
Yeah, Canada! It's nice to see another good thing coming out of the true north! Nice pen, and they have nice inks too. I look forward to see what other inks they come out with.
Thanks for watching!
This color looks awesome! I dare say it would look just lovely in my collection. Hihi. Thanks again for a super detailed review Doug.
You are so welcome!
Wow! That thing writes much better than I expected! I suspect that the properties of the ink helped. Good video.
True. The combo of ink and pen is excellent.

I'm seriously considering buying this pen. After you wrote those few initial lines, it just looked like it was right up my alley, thin but wet line.
Hi Doug, thanks as always for your review. I really love Ferris Wheel design aesthetics. It always looks beautiful.
Thanks for this review! I’d not made up my mind about giving their pens a try, though I thoroughly enjoy the inks, and this video has been my “add to cart” decision maker.
Glad it was helpful!
I really want to try their ink. The new sunlit jade and moonlit jade look amazing!!!
Very impressed with your review and with the Ferris Wheel Press Carousel fountain pen.
Heh. You finally got me at ‘it’s FAST!’ Pen speed really does make a difference in writing when the ideas are flying, and I’m not sure I have a single truly fast pen right now. Nice review. Really thorough and helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for a detailed review. I would be a bit worried about how long lasting is the soft plastic exterior, but the nib, which is to me the most important part sounds lovely!
Thank you, 0tuia! The plastic is a bit soft and will scuff and scratch easily.
Thanks for the review, Douglas! The pen design reminds me of Kaweco Perkeo somehow.
It does!
that looks to be a lovely pen and light enough to just carry around for a quick note
As usual..a great review. Like a snap cap, engraved nib, included converter and Canadian co. Oh yes, that it writes well. I too lov a carousel 🎠 lots of fond memories with Gramps and the Cony Island carousel.
Thank you, Wendy!
Another honest and great review, Doug. I’m impressed by the details of this pen. Really nice.
Thank you, Marianne!
It's great to see an indie pen maker focusing on an inexpensive, utilitarian pen like this. Thanks for the review.
It really is!
Exactly
Hi Doug, fast, smooth,.wet and light writing... So, I can just write like it’s a sport car... and I do like thin lines... I adore this fountain pen, it should be an awesome fountain pen... Top quality.
Thanks for sharing!
Nice review! Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the review. Fun and reliable looking pen.
Couldn't agree more!
Another great review Doug, thanks!
This looks like a well thought out and designed pen, intriguing!
My pleasure!
Looks like a nice pocket pen as well. Not quite sport size, but pocketable all the same.
Good to hear that it writes so well.
Looks like an interesting pen to check out, thanks for the great review. Missed your usual guitar intro!
Hey, thanks!
Woohoo! You’re on a roll with giveaways! Love it! ❤❤
That was months ago! :)
@@InkquiringMinds Haha! Oops. Lol. UA-cam recommended this one too which makes sense. What is time anyway? 😆
@@Shananigans6978 That’s a relative question!
Thank you for your reviews, and in particular this one. They are thoughtful, creative, and informative.
I appreciate that!
“Carousel” is one of my favorite musicals, so how could I resist a pen with that name? Delight “is bustin’ out all over”!
When you walk through a storm at the stroke of midnight, hold your pen up high...
Excellent review. Thank you!
Awesome review as always. I have seen a lot about this brand but have not seen any of their products in person yet. Hopefully at the Baltimore show, someone will have some.
I hope so too!
I was surprised how thin and wet the line was. The ink is a nice color as well.
Oh, one more pen on the market :). Nice review!
Thanks! 😀
Another great video! Wow, a paisano from St. Catharines. I’m and old Collegiate guy graduated in ‘86… just before going globetrotting down to Mexico for a few (30) years. I’m back… Thanks for the video!!!
Very cool! SWC here!
Nice pen, the cut out in the box showing the pen's color is a nice touch.
I think so too!
Very nice shade of blue. (Hopefully, they will make a darker green in the future.) Thank you for the review!
I agree 100%, Vik-Thor!
Love all your reviews. Thanks!
Oh, I didn't know they also produced fountain pens. My first idea was "Ah, a grown up Kaweco Sport". It seems to be a nice pen and could be a good EDC pen.

Thanks for watching!
Another great review! I am now intrigued by this pen and their ink. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
Thanks, Deb!
Thanks for introducing us to this company. Nice little pen!
You bet!
Thank you for such a wonderful review, I love how smooth the pen writes during your video and good to know a little bit of history about the company as well.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the review and background. It's always so much more interesting when something has a story. Best wishes, and great review.
Glad you enjoyed it!
An intriguing pen. As you said, lots of interesting design features.
I DO like light plastic pens that write well! I have small hands but I tend to let my thumb drift up so a long section is awesome!
Sounds right up your alley!
I love this company, the design and artist look of the products and the inks i like the fact that they different pen as i was not a fan of the other paintbrush pen. Also its Canadian i try to support Canadian businesses when i can
Looks like an interesting pen. I appreciated your St Catherines story, having once lived down the road in Hamilton.
Go TiCats!
Another excellent review! Keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
I tried one of their brass and lacquered pens at the Fountain Pen Hospital. They had a sample pen, but at that time they were only planning to carry the ink. I was surprised at how well the pen wrote.
What a fantastic looking pen in a gorgeous blue. Have had Ferris Wheel Press on my heavy interest list for a while now. Wish they were more in my budget in Australia!
Excited to see a review of this more affordable pen and appreciate your thoughts on it! Looks like a keeper. :)
You got it!
Wow, what a cool pen. Definitely has a great style to it and the quality
I agree!
Another great review. This seems like it would be a great addition to an EDC. I like having a snap cap pen in my daily drivers for quick notes. Good luck to everyone!
Totally agree
Interesting review, and now I’m interested even more in this brand. I didn’t know they were Canadian. My first thought (as you mentioned): serious Kaweco vibes from that cap. But not in a bad way.
Four more facets than a Kaweco Sport. Perhaps Kaweco will trademark the name "Carousel"?
@@InkquiringMinds Don't give them ideas 🤣
Lately Kaweco Sport & Pilot Kakuno have been talking to me, now Ferris Wheel Press Carousel. Thanks Doug :)
Right on!
i enjoyed your review. i am new to the fountain pen world and i am unfamiliar with this pen company. your review was helpful and informative and you sold me on this pen! thank you for sharing. ;) i have been drawn to the kaweco pen in style but i am unsure if i would like the size of it and i also like the idea of supporting a canadian company.
Thank you for the give away from Ferris Wheel Press and Doug. That pen would work well with FWP Jelly Bean. A nice blue ink.
I love Jelly Bean Blue! Thanks, Jay!
Very nice of Ferris Wheel Press to give a lucky pen addict this writing instrument 😊
Indeed!
Pleasantly surprised by the quality of this pen. That nice ink line is superb. Cool ink, too.
It really is! I was surprised too. I just got back from Reid's and they have all the colours of the Carousel on display.
@@InkquiringMinds I hope they do well with them! FWP seems like a good company, and we know Reids is a great b&m pen store, and there are far too few of those!
Received the turquoise version today.Narrower and longer than the Kaweco Sport, but fits my large hand perfectly and a really good steel nib. Spot on with all the details they manage to achieve with this pen.A real keeper!
Thank you so much, Stefan!
Oh how nice! They have an alternative to that paintbrush pen they offered before!!!
I'm quite surprised how fine the medium is. The attention to detail for the design of this pen is impressive though! I do want to try one for myself.
Very nice review as always! And funny as always too :) Thank you! I was just looking at this pen few days ago and couldn’t find any reviews… Now I ‘now it all!

Glad I could help! I like the French Vanilla too. I think it will be popular.
This is so encouraging! I love their inks, but pens are a different thing. Your stamp of approval means a lot! 🥰
Thank you so much, Adrienne!
I think I'm going to pick up the fountain and the cartridge ball point from them. As a set these two would be perfect.
Their darker inks seem really good. I have yet to make one my Ink of the Month, but maybe later this year Tanzanite Sky will make the cut. This pen would be good to put that in!
I have enjoyed their ink and I like that they are a Canadian company.
Compliments on your review and on achievement of Ferris Wheel with this pen and in. With a Carousel, I'll never write alone.
This looks like a very well thought out pen, I really like how all the different design facets fit together. Looks an sounds to me like this would be an ideal pen for use with a bullet journal, Hmmm now there's a thought....
This is an intriguing pen, both because of the quality features you highlighted in your review, and because it is very similar indeed to a Kaweco pen. I’m thinking about the Perkeo model, that has slight differences here and there but overall keeps the same faceted design and snap-cap mechanism. Even some of the available colour choices bear some resemblance, but on the Carousel there’s definitely a lot more care put on the packaging, as the Perkeo usually comes wrapped inside a simple plastic envelope, but in my opinion there’s definitely room for a close comparison video in the future: just some food for thought. Both pens look like good choices for an EDC, but so far I haven’t had the chance to try any Ferris Wheel Press FP, as they are quite difficult to find in Italy, where I live.
Such a pretty pen, I love the horse stamped nib, one of my favorite pend I own is my Tools To Live By Black Chat which has a cat face stamped nib and I'm lucky I got it because I've checked the page and they're sold out.
FWP makes it very hard not to go overboard when shopping, though their prices thankfully slow me down when I do buy something lol
I’m in Lethbridge! Hey! I have stroke of midnight and just love it! I have never been just a black or blue ink girl lol. I always have to snazz things up! I also have a Carousel pen and I like it! I have the Tiffany blue one which is called the same name as their ink Tumultuous Tides.😁 I love to support Canadian companies. I buy there ink and I have Stroke of Midnight, Tumultuous Tides and April Showers. Love them!
Awesome! Go Canada!
Thanks so much Mr. Doug, another informative pen review. The Carousel packaging is definitely impressive and I like the themed approach to this design.
