 piece of crap August 8, 2007

I guess we are spoiled in this office with IBM typewriters. Unfortunately, our main one quit working (after about 10 years of use)and needed to be replaced. We did not want anything fancy, just functional. Every person in this office hates this Brother machine. We are returning it and will not purchase another Brother. There are several things about this that make it more of a hassle then its worth. br / br /1. Can't see where you are typing. We use this for forms, so it is important to be able to line it up nicely - we waste so much time erasing and trying to line it up in the right place. br / br /2. The keys couldn't be any harder to type. It can't keep up with your typing and you need to hit the keys hard. Lame and exhausting! br / br /3. Have to reset the tabs, margins and pitch every single time you turn the machine on? No one can find instructions in the manual on how to make these adjustments stay. br / br /So once you spend five minutes adjusting your tabs and reseting the pitch, you struggle to line it up, erasing and readjusting a million times. It feels like crap while you do it. And Wha-la, it took you 20 minutes to type a form that took 3 minutes on the old IBM Wheel writer. br / br /Spend the extra cash and buy from a company that makes smooth comfortable and efficient machines.
Good at Making You Angry May 17, 2006

If you have not been mad- I mean really good and mad- for a long time, this is the machine for you. It will guarantee frustration as long as you try to use it. I ordered this machine and the first one arrived broken. The second one worked but made the worst sounds when I would hit the return key, or backspace. Good for annoying my boss so I kept it. After a few days it randomly would assign margins, I would hit the margin release, clear any and all settings and it would work for a line or two and then at random indent, assign margins ect. No 2 lines of text would ever line up, and it felt like the typewriter equivalent to writing with a crayon. Eventually (within 30 days) I was unable to do anything with the machine. I could go on, but you get the point, I would pass on this machine.
Brother ml-300 not worth considering February 8, 2006

I have had two of these units. I would definitely not recommend anyone buying the ML-300. Save yourself some money and get something else. Both of the units lasted only 14 months. I did hardly any typing with them. Only multi-page forms and applications. The printwheel motor failed on both of them and so did the electronic board for the keys. Took in in to a repair center and was told it was not worth repairing. Contacted Brother International USA and was told that the warranty was only good for 12 months. Save yourself some money and buy a Big Chief table and a number 2 pencil.

 theirs nothing wrong with typewriters August 24, 2005

This is the kind of thing I love to use if I get tired of typing on the computer or if my printer has ran out of Ink. A lot of people have forgotten that typewriters still exist I haven't. This run's on electric so at least its not a 1950's machine. It returns by it self so you can start the next colume of typing. I also use some white paper fill with chalk to erase some words. Typewriting is what I first had to learn in school before I had to take a computer class.
