Crossover Office – is it actually worth it?

Office 2016 would be enough for me, I don't need anything beyond that. Don't plan on using any external data sources with Word, for Excel I might but I'm 90% percent sure connections to external databases will break wine compatibility.

Does Crossover Office really provide a stable running solution as long as you don't try to integrate Office with other tools / plugins?

If so, how would I even install office into Crossover? Do I need to acquire the ISO through Microsoft ISO downloader tool, and then just point crossover to the mount directory?

Has anyone ever used Crossover Word / Excel 2016 / 2019 / 2024 installations for longer periods of time, and do they indeed run as stable as they do on windows?

Where is the catch?
