Oh, by the way, get some easy stick on dots for quick idenification. I have small velcro dots, and others that can be purchased locally. If ordering from on of the speciality store, you can get tactile dots there. Keep a good supply so you can get someone who drops in to put handy

One thought: Not all appliances have to be modified to be accessible. For example, my crock pot only has one knob. Each setting has a positive stop. Off, Low, Medium, and High. Just put the stuff in, put the lid on, plug it in, forget it for a while. Plus, there is no extra charge for

Hi, Since the crock-pot doesn't really need marking, check wall-mart or some other stores that don't double the price because it says accessible. The same goes for a toaster oven, so far as someone reads you the directions originally...but check for one with knobs. With the toaster oven,some

Does the adhesive wear off if the knob gets kind of warm, like on an oven temperature dial? This is a problem that I had with those when I tried to put them on my grill temperature knob. --- Be positive! When it comes to being defeated, if you think you're finished, you! really! are!
