Thanks so much for the heads up about the Emerald model. I'll know not
to buy that one next time I need a new air Fryer oven.

The model I saw couldn't be marked in any way that would help. The dials don't
come up with the same information each time. They change by what you are doing.
I didn't check to see if it could be run with a smart phone ap. By the time I
found the ap, set it up, got it going, my food would be burnt offerings if it
were running or spoiled in its raw state while I searched to find the proper
response. I really wanted that Emerald oven and worked a couple hours with a
sighted friend before giving up on it and returning it. With limited sight it
might be possible to use that oven, but not for a totally blind person.

I don't think there are any truly accessible air fryer ovens. I don't have the
emerald model, but I have the standard Power Air Fryer oven, the largest 8 QT
model, and have no problems operating it. In fact, it gets used at least once,
often two or three times a day. But, like with almost all microwave ovens, you
just have to have sighted help to mark positions on the touch screen but then
really hope the thing is doing what its supposed to be doing.
It'd be great if there were an app operated model or even a talking air fryer
oven, but I don't see this happening.

Thanks, I know that there are several models available. It would be nice if you
could operate it via an app like the instant pot.

The Emerald one is not accessible. Unfortunately! I wanted the oven type, but
it had dials and buttons and you could not be certain which program was turned
on. Of course, the buttons were a guessing game as well in terms of getting the
exact temperature you wanted. Part of it could be memorized, but not enough to
be certain without eyes available.

Subject: [CnD] Air fryer
Hello everyone I know that there has been some discussion on the list regarding
air fryers. I’m wondering if anyone knows whether or not the air fryer that is
sold by Emerald is accessible for those of us who are blind? I’m in the market
for an air fryer and I’m trying to find one that I will be able to use
independently.
Thank you
