Four stars as they seem to function well and are inexpensive, but took a star away as my hand got lots of yellow ink on it from the drippy package it was shipped in. Be careful taking the plastic shielding off. The ink pooled up inside and splashed on my hand.

Bought this product taking a chance that it will perform like the expensive kind made by Canon. After getting a little ink on my hands installing the cartridges, I decided to try it out printing color. I was very impressed with the quality of the print. I could NOT tell a difference at all. I would buy this product again.

Thought this was a great buy, but when I went to open the blue ink it was all over the package and it was a mess cleaning it up and hard to get off your hands. Otherwise the others were great. Maybe something can be done to clear this problem up.

This generic version of the Canon ink cartridges, as other reviewers have already noted, tends to leak. To date, the cartridges have all worked well in my Canon printer, so I have no complaints with the product's performance. But the leakage happened in 1 out of the 3 cartridges I opened--a Magenta ink--and be aware, this is not cranberry juice! This is an intensely colored, indelible ink! So when it dripped on my walking shorts--well, goodbye shorts. It also didn't wash off my hands, eventually wearing off after two days. But in the meantime, strangers probably wondered if I was the guy who robbed the local First National. Sure I saved money buying these inks but now I have to invest in a new pair of shorts. So, if you're looking for economy Canon-type ink, be prepared to get indelibly messy!!!

One of the ink cartridges was broken! Two leaked as soon as I removed the seals. Not too good so far!
