Royal 79104P Classic Manual Typewriter (Black)

I gave this typewriter 5 stars because it works nicely. Some parts are plastic, while others are metal. It functions like it should. I couldn’t get the black to type until I figured out the ribbon was upside down. Took the ribbon off, turned it over so the red was on the bottom and voila! It types nicely. It has a nice classic look to it. My only disappointment is that the case the listing said would come with it is missing. Otherwise I am satisfied. It’s a hefty typewriter, solid and sturdy, and it was well packed. Worth the money.

This is the worse piece of junk I have ever purchased. Unfortunately, I didn't open the box to use the typewriter until yesterday, long after the return window had closed or it would have been returned immediately. It's poorly manufactured, the paper roller knob fell off, the roller would'nt work, the return carriage was broken, the keys tinny and difficult to push, the line spacing control didn't work, and the capital letter button was stuck because all small spring had not been attached. I will go in the garbage, a complete disappointment and waste of money. DO NOT BUY IT! Gave it one star, but only because I couldn't submit it without one.

This is amazing and feels like a typewriter is supposed to feel. It took me back to the day when I used to play with my mom's old typewriter. It brings intention back to writing (typing). You gotta pay attention. There's no meat fox.for a typo. Love it.

The Royal Classic was advertised with a carrying case. No such case was received. Where is it? I suppose I'm to use the box it arrived in as a travel case. Very tacky!

Unfortunately it kept skipping . Disappointed and had no problem returning it . Really liked it but …skipping .

Very nice quality old school typewriter my daughter loves it!

DO NOT BUY. Shoddy workmanship makes this typewriter barely functional. Followed directions etc. But this typewriter is poorly calibrated so ribbon , batten , line spacing and shift function will not work consistently enough to type a letter or post card. It is misaligned in all those places. It looks like a typewriter — but only delivers all the hassles that a thrifted version might have. It needs fixing on day one. So expensive too-/ I feel robbed! Very disappointed 😕

"I gave the three star rating for the 'easy to use' because most people born after the 80's, 90's will have a difficult time using this as it is a 'deliberate act' tool when writing. The keys must be pressed hard and additional product must be purchased when you need to make corrections in your writing; correction tape, white out liquid, pens, brushes, etc. as well as typewriter ribbon, are needed when you make mistakes in your writing. This is not like a computer which takes slight of hand and does the work for you. I love this little typewriter. 'Takes me back to my junior high school days for school assignments and spare time writing on my novels. Thank you!"

My girlfriend is an aspiring writer and I got this for her to spice her hobby up a bit. She loves it. It works perfectly. Easy to use. It's satisfying to hear the constant clacking of metal as she spit balls ideas.

Typewriter arrived broken. Working on returning it for full refund.

It is not authentic. The logo on the one I got is not straight so the manufacture is poor. You have to press very strong on the keyboard for the ink to be transferred to the paper. It looks good as a design, but don’t expect to write too much. The only thing that bothers is the twisted logo. The delivery was excellent though.

Diese Schreibmaschine ist eine absolute Frechheit. Funktioniert überhaupt nicht. Billigprodukt , keinen Euro wert.
