"Repaired and cleaned my Olivetti Lettera 22. Amazing to find a shop that knew the machine inside and out. Great service. Very friendly staff. Amazing resource if you have a typewriter."

"I've purchased reconditioned typewriters from, sold typewriters to, and had typewriters reconditioned at Berkeley Typewriter for decades. Joe knows his craft inside and out, and I'm glad he had the smarts to hire Ken Alexander when California Typewriter closed. Together, they represent the most knowledgeable and experienced typewriter mechanics in Northern California. "
