Best typewriter around
I was the head technician of a small 
typewriter and printer sales and service company for over 15 years until just last year when, unfortunately, it went out of business. During that time, I worked on almost every different make and model of typewriter still in use today. I've repaired Brothers, Cannons, Xerox, Smith Coronas/Nakajimas, IBM Lexmark Wheelwriters, and even the older Actionwriters, and Selectrics. All of them had their advantages and disadvantages to them depending on their uses. I honestly have to say the only typewriters I ever recommended to my customers was the IBM/Lexmark Wheelwriters. In my opinion, they were the least likely to have something go wrong with them, or "break down". From a techs. point of view, when they did break down, they were usually very easy to repair. Most problems with the machines I could fix over the phone by walking the customer through it step by step. They are very easy to use and the different models they have range from just a basic correcting typewriter to machines that have functions like spell check, word erase and auto centering, just to name a few. Depending on what reason you need a typewriter, there's a model that's right for you. Ease of use, technician friendly, and reliability makes the IBM Wheelwriter the best typewriter around in my opinion.
I have one Wheelwriter 10 series II available at http://typewriterandprintersupplies.webs.com/, and although I don't recommend it for use as just a personal home typewriter, just because you usually don't need all the functions it has to offer, I think it's the perfect choice for the small office. Features this machine offers are:
