Cross fountain pens are considered to be on the middle level of the pen industry. They may not belong to the luxury level or the highly priced pens but the pens produced by Cross have become quite popular to professionals of all ages.
Mechanically speaking, Cross is also well renowned for its durability. It comes with a lifetime warranty and based on experience, it, in no doubt, can last for many years. Cross fountain pens usually come with a screw-in converter. It has one of the largest barrels for ink. The diameter is medium-sized which allows perfect grip.
The gold-plated design is simple yet classy which is perfect for both men and women professionals. In fact, in mid 1980s to 1990s, Cross fountain pens are very popular among executives in the United States. It somehow serves as a status symbol among them. Although, generally, Cross is marketed to the upper middle class crowd and not necessarily as a luxury pen.
Cross is a well established brand not only in the fountain pen arena. The brand is also popular for their line of ball point pens, mechanical pencils and other writing instruments. Because it is trusted by many, most people find it comfortable to actually use the pen. Some people even find writing with a Cross, a relief from electronic word processing.
Due to the recession, Cross was left with no other choice but to outsource manufacturing. In fact, most Cross models we get to purchase today are made in China. Nonetheless, this does not decrease the functionality of the fountain pens.
Presently, I would say that Cross fountain pens are wonderful writing instruments to buy since they are not too expensive that you would be afraid of using it, or too cheap that you would be ashamed to show that you are using it. It actually carries class, quality and dependability that is perfect for its user.
