Description:
Update 2022: sold a long time ago
Although it looks different, the touch tells you that it comes from the Halda P.
Same light, precise touch.
This Facit looks and feels as I assume a new typewriter would. It had very little signs of wear and simply feels solid, clean, reliable.
The output is as expected. Straight, clean, and even with a ribbon very low of ink very well readable.
Too bad that the color and the shape of the typewriter are so ... neutral.
I find it hard to get an emotional connection somehow. Maybe it's just a little bit too perfect.
The font-code is 1-AR.
