I decided to buy this typewriter after reading Oz’s post on it. It was designed by Carl Sundberg, one of the most influential typewriter designers. Oz also points out that these are relatively rare. Pedigree aside, the crisp action of this typewriter quickly endeared me to it. It has a wonderful feel that makes you want to keep writing. It’s the first machine I own that doesn’t detach from the case.
Oh yes, I like this model! Basically a Torpedo 18. I think it does detach from the base; there are a couple of levers under the hood that you push to unhook it.
