They actually work well in my Epson XP-5200
I have had issues in the past with other vendors that supplied non-OEM ink cartridges for my Epson XP-5200. Other vendor cartridges would not be recognized by the XP-5200.
I took a chance and went to 123inkjets. THEY WORK PERFECT ! and were recognized upon installation! A great cost savings as compared to Epson OEM.
