A standard typewriter is a massive, heavy office machine that generally has more features than a portable typewriter. Some older models have the mechanisms in sight, providing a true spectacle when they are set in motion. Standard typewriters usually weigh between 13-23 kg, depending on the model.
A portable typewriter is a much smaller and lighter machine than a standard typewriter, used both for the office and for easy transport. Usually, each portable typewriter comes with an original suitcase. Portable typewriters can weigh between 2.5 kg-10 kg, depending on the model.
