Question:
How can I use my touchpad microwave if I canīt see?
MARK IT UP
If you're blind, or you know someone who is, then you know how impossible touchpads on appliances are to navigate. Many of us put braille labels on them so we can use them, but for some people, who don't know braille, or whose fingers have lost their sensitivity due to diabetes, that's not a practical solution. There is a great product called HiMarks, which comes in a tube and will put very feelable, bright orange dots onto most surfaces. they're very durable, too. Simply squeeze a little anywhere you need a feelable mark, let it set up, and you've got an accessible appliance. This also works great if you feel the need for markings on your stove or washer and dryer. You can buy this from the ann Morris company, which you'll find listed in the Links section of this site. I've never used this particular product, but having souped up many a microwave, I can tell you there's nothing like the freedom of being able to get around the controls quickly and confidently.
