Works well. No issues at all except for a dried up ribbon. Very remarkable for a very petite and light-weight machine, the laptop of its time. complete with its original and uniquely designed leather case.

I'm an archaeologist who writes heritage books and collects Japanese ceramics as well as quite a number of typewriters that I've acquired through purchase or as gifts over the last 10 years in the Philippines as well as in the US and Japan.
I'm currently a visiting professor at a university in Japan and it is heaven here to see so many typewriters being auctioned online!
