The usage of un- changes the meaning entirely.

In your first example, the sentence states that your machine is uniquely, and there is no other machine like it. The problem is, how can we avoid having a machine that can look the same for all machines that use the machine?

I know your second example state that your machine is unique, but the second part of the sentence contradicts the first part, by stating that “there are no machines that are not like this one,” implying that all machines are alike to this one!

Is the first sentence in this article correct?

What is a good first sentence?

“Unlike no other” means that a machine dissimilar to this one does not exist, which means that all machines are like this one. By definition, that machine wouldn’t be “special” and so its sentence doesn’t make sense.

If you like the idea of using the word unlike in your sentence, you could say: “We have a special machine, unlike any other. Is it like a bike? “DJ.”And

‘does it feel safe to do so?
