 Good Buy Sep 17, 2001
I have, for the past ten or so years, been a professional writer with over fifty short stories published, and two novels. When I saw this typewriter on Amazon.Com, I was shocked to see such a wonderful model going for such a small price. Daisy Wheel typewriters provide a long life, durability, and good quality production. Not to mention that it came with free shipping. And on a ten pound item, you will pay more than you would like for shipping and handling. This has several features that save a lot of time, and a lot of repeating, frustrating motions. The only thing better than the great deal our friends at amazon have given us is this: With a high Yeild Nylon Ribbon, it flows like a stretch of silk. I am currently half way through my next book, coming to about four-hundred pages as of now, and I am still on the same ribbon I started with. One High-Yeild ribbon is good for about 80,000 characters. If you are a student, this is a nice buy, and cheaper than buying a computer and a printer. If you are a writer like me, then you might hit it big on this one. In closing, you should grab these up, because the free shipping won't last forever, and I know all of my friends will want one. So, here's to you, Amazon, for this great model at an affordable price.

 Nice Typewriter for the Average Person May 19, 2006
By 70's Girl
"Born to Talk"
I am a very nostalgic person...thought my daughter would get a kick out of using a typewriter like the one I learned on in the 70's. Well, I bought this one for her and she loves it. Of course, it is very different typing on this as compared to a pc. It is also different than typing on a more expensive or more professional daisy wheel. For the price, it is a good typewriter and a good value.

 DON'T BUY, IF YOU MUST DO A LOT OF TYPING Sep 22, 2007
By Kenneth C. Anderson
"Doc Anderson"
I'VE OWNED THIS TYPEWRITER FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND, FOR THE PRICE, IT PROBABLY ISN'T A BAD DEAL; BUT IF YOU HAVE TO DO A LOT OF TYPING, DON'T EXPECT IT TO HOLD UP. THE DAISYWHEEL IS ACTUALLY MADE OF PLASTIC AND I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE IT TWICE.
FILLING IN FORMS, EVEN IN 'VIEW MODE," IS NERVEWRACKING AND PRONE TO FREQUENT ERRORS.
COMPARING IT TO THE OLD IBM ELECTRONIC IS LIKE COMPARING A YUGO TO A MERCEDES!

wife's typewriter May 07, 2007
By Winston D. Andrews
"everyday secretary"
My wife has been using this brother-GX6750 almost everyday since I purchased it for minor office work, like forms etc. It works fine for this purpose but she still needs her PC for major reports. Before I got this typewriter she used an old IBM Selectric which she loved for it's speed...but it died on her and it was very heavy to move around.(Wife) I am enjoying this Brother GX-6750...everyday I get a little more used to it's slower speed.

It's pretty good Jun 19, 2001
It's cheap and works fine. I like it better than a computer just because it's satisfying to write on, but that's me.
