Does anyone have these markers? If so what are the pro and cons? I'm thinking of getting those?

I have the Clean Color ones by Zig. They are a real brush, so they are great for calligraphy. They are waterbased, so you can use them like watercolor. I use them when I don't want to drag out my watercolors.

I bought the 48 pack. I use them with or without water.
For most of my projects I usually use Neenah Solar White cardstock and they work great if you use them as a marker without water. If you want to use them for watercolor then Bristol Smooth is the best (Neenah doesn't do water well). Kristina Werner got me using Bristol smooth for water-coloring.
They have a really pointy tip and can color in teeny tiny areas (think little critter eyes or flower and leaf sections).
I really don't have any cons for them. Except that for my limited coloring skills the 48 pack was too many. I could've purchased the 24 or 36 pack and been happy.
ETA: Mine are the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers

If you're talking about the ones mentioned in prior comments, look at Amazon and eBay for overseas sellers...you'll save yourself a ton of money (just know that shipping might be longer).

I have the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers as well. I think I bought the 24, but wish I had opted for 48... I'm not the greatest when it comes to watercoloring but I've had decent results with these. I purchased mine on Amazon and saved a fortune. My LSS carries them now and I've picked up a couple more colors that I felt I needed.
