Re: [AI] wanted to purchase a talking weighing machine.
I'd rather suggest you to go with a smart weighing machine like the one from MI, it syncs with your mobile phone through google fit or its own app and tells other things like BMI also. It costs around 1900 rupees and is more feature rich.

Re: [AI] wanted to purchase a talking weighing machine.
Few years back, I bought a HealthSense talking weighing machine from some online shopping site (don't exactly know whether from snapdeal or HealthGenie or rediff shopping) in just Rs.853. One of the most fascinating features that I liked about it that it requires 2 tripleA batteries which are easily available in open markets.
