hi Ray.
It is not that the cost is unbearable. it depends after all how much money
you get in the first place and whether like me you choose to spend it on
beer like me!!! (smile)
The point is that really there is absolutely no need for a talking microwave
and this is probably why the manufacturing of them has ceased.
A microwave with 2 dials, 1 for power and 1 for time could be brailled
like a washing machine dial is
often brailled. This solution is cheap. It is not language sensitive and
if you can change power settings and know what the time is set to, what more
information do you really need?
If you want the talking stuff I certainly don't want to criticise. why
should I?
I used to have a moulinex microwave whose controls were clicked
round so that you could only turn it up in temperature and time stages.
that was even easier to use. The talking microwaves have warnings
to take food out and stir etc. but these features are probably useless
gimics designed for little else than to justify the outragious price tag.
Cheers
Graham

I must comment that, were I unable to see at all, I would personally value a
talking microwave.
Hope I will not be flamed unduly for saying this, but if you are getting
DLA, particularly middle rate, is the extra cost of a talking microwave that
unbearable?
Rushing off to clean my mouth with soap and water.

| for all the benefits a talking microwave brings you are probably better
| spending about £60 or so for one from a local electrical store (curries,
| commet etc). just look at one and make sure it has one with a dial rather
| than a touch pad. You generally find on these you can tell what time you
| have chosen and what power level. You can if you need to get one of the
| array of cheap talking clocks available and then basically job done just
as
| well for under £100.
