Adequate
I’ve had other non-Cross replacements that were better than this. It will do.

Not a smooth flow of ink
Thought maybe I could buy an off brand refill cartridge for my cross pen. Ink does not flow smoothly. Ink skips at times. Will not purchase again. I do not recommend this brand for cross pens.

False info on laxkage
It says on the package that it will fit all cross ball point pens. It will not fit my desk set Cross ball point pens!

As expected
The Cross Ballpoint refill is off to a good start but I'm not sure how long it will last. I was disappointed that I could not find a real Cross refill but this knockoff seems to be ok. I give it an average rating, for starters.

Merangue Fits Cross Ballpoint Pen - Low quality
These refills do not start writing without scribbling on scrap first
Would not repurchase -

It fits, but...
...wish Staples carried genuine Cross refills. These fit Cross pens, but the ink is light and somewhat uneven.
