NakajimaWPT-160 Electronic Portable Typewriter with Display and Memory

I worked in an office all my life and haven't seen a typewriter for sale that is better than this one. I am over the moon with my purchase. Great quality. Will get lots of use because I am currently doing something I've wanted to do for many years. I am writing a book.

Purchased back in March and it already doesn't work and it is rarely used. The arm to change the ribbon is already broken and I can't return the product. This should come with a manufacture warranty. I guess I am just SOL.

I thought I could only write my book on a typewriter but…while many authors do…They obviously never used a modern computer? I never tried this typewriter ( and I type 95 WPM with no errors) because everyone in my family plus my friends told me that this was “old technology” so I returned it and purchased on Amazon…the Brand new edition of the 2024 Apple IPad with the newest matching Magic Keyboard. However, this typewriter is the only new typewriter still being manufactured and is rated Very high scores…plus is perfect for those who, for any reason, cannot, or do not, prefer a computer! = “DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS!”

It works

I just obtained this typewriter about 2-3 weeks ago. In order to properly rate it , one would have to use it quite a bit over a longer period of time-- for instance, how difficult is it ti obtain and install ribbons for it, etc.....I like to type occasional, rather involved paper letters to people though, usually authors or professors in the upper levels of the intellectual world, and an older secretary I had used who works part-time out of her home is getting a bit too old, like myself at the age of 75. So I could do it myself, I bought this typewriter. It had been 30 years since I had personally used an electronic typewriter; but I just did type a 5 pg., single-spaced letter to an author whose book I'd just read. This typewriter worked well enough, and I found the experience of using it rather enjoyable.

My 88 year old mother can only use this kind to write letters and cards…she loved this!!

Great typewriter. I use this typewriter in a law office and it is great for filling out forms. Especially like the screen and memory on this typewriter.

Too complicated for me.
