Description:
This simplified* ABC model feels solid and cheap at the same time. Solid because of the hefty metal bottom plate and cheap because of the plastic body. The typing action is very light and reminds me somewhat on the Hermes 3000, probably because of the similar shape of the keys.
* This model omits the color selector, double line spacing, the end of paper indicator, the paper guide and the touch control.

I live in The Netherlands.
Most common typewriter brands over here are Triumph/Adler, Olympia, Erika, Olivetti, Remington and Brother.
I collect and restore typewriters to learn about their design and to write with them.
