Small personal typewriters will offend you...and often called possessed.
Small electronic typewriters are inexpensive. Although with this in mind most personal office electronic typewrites will frustrate you for the tasks you would like to perform with a typewriter.
Good points about small  personal typewriters, are they are light in weight and they do type.
 Some undesirable qualities of small personal electronic typewriters are:
 You cannot see much of the line of type; this is because the ribbon lift system was removed in order to keep the purchase price low. The top part of the ribbon does not move down after you strike a key, so you cannot see your typed line.

 There is not and index detent, the removal of this feature will not allow you to return to a line. The detent is the click click you feel and hear when you turn the platen knob which you are accustomed to on most typewriters.

 Delayed speed throws your typing off balance. While typing on a typewriter there is distinctive clack that corresponds with your depressing of the keys. On a low-end electronic typewriter you may have finished the word you were typing and remove your hands from the keyboard and the machine keeps on typing. This is the possessed effect.

 It is extremely difficult to type on thick multi part forms, envelopes, and card stock with an inexpensive electronic typewriter.
