Lemon Edition

I bought the Gen 3 to avoid screen fatigue and to add some ritual to writing, and it has done both of these so well. I was a little skeptical of the reviews that gushed how much writing they had done, but I have found myself writing more than when I used my laptop. It’s incredibly fun to sit down and clack away. The mechanical keys are very satisfying, but they are very loud. So if you’re looking for something quiet-ish their other products might be better. I couldn’t imagine taking this to a public place and not being self conscious about the noise.
The syncing to postmate was easy to set up, and it was easy to set up additional syncs from post mates to other platforms. There are a lot of sad stories about data loss out there, but if you take care to flip to WiFi on after each session ( or keep it there) you’ll likely have back ups if anything happens. My biggest concern at time of purchase was software and how easy it would be to add to my current writing flow, and those have been non-issues so far. The Gen3 has slotted into my writing routine like it’s always been there.

I purchased this mostly because it was yellow, and I adore yellow things I wanted the Hemingway edition but couldn’t justify its price, it’s a fantastic device and does exactly as it should and nothing it doesn’t, while the software for WiFi cloud services is swell I personally leave that switch turned off and save to the device itself exclusively I did swap my key caps after talking to customer service and it aided my drafting thanks to the contrast

I have to say I was very impressed, when I opened the box. I knew how the device looked prior to purchasing (youtube reviews), but nothing prepared me to how beautiful and extremely well made it, actually, is.
I've been it using every day without any issues at all and, I have to say, word count has become a problem of the past!
Would definitely recommend to people who are having issues with compulsive editing (like myself). And it is great to have a device that allows multiple backups in case something happens.

Over all I've had the most amazing experience using it.

I'm so in love with my typewriter <3. It was worth every penny!

It’s so bright and colorful it makes me want to write more and I’ve started writing morning pages which is amazing. The keys are clicky and soft. I love the handle and how easy it is to take outside and work in daylight. The white lettering is a little hard to see on the knobs because of how bright the lemon is, but once you know what each side does, you don’t notice it anymore.

I am a fan of the drafting machine technology, and this is my second freewrite machine. I love the idea and the portability and availability of the machine, but having bought the case, I can honestly say it needs a basic re-design is in essence, crap. So avoid that part. Buy the extended warranty, just in case. Know that support at Freewrite is really very good and there is always someone around the lend a hand. The lemon is cute, and a nice companion for my Hemmingway. Mind, I make the critique because the design process and cost of the end-product set higher expectations than what is delivered in some products.
