No. The one we have doesn't have that.

I believe it has a convection oven feature. Do you use that, and what do you

Ann, that's the way ours works too. When you turn it on the temperature is 
automatically set at 370 degrees and the time at 15 minutes. It's a flat screen 
and there's a big round blue light near the bottom in the center where my wife 
put a bump dot for me. That's the power button. When you push it the screen 
lights up with the above settings that I mentioned. On the left are two 
temperature lights, one for up and one for down. We have bump dots there too. 
Each push of the up button raises the temp 5 degrees and each push of the down 
button lowers the temp 5 degrees. The maximum is 400 degrees.
On the right side, straight across from the temp buttons are the same type of 
lights which are the time up and down buttons. Each push of the up button 
raises the time 1 minute and each push of the down button lowers the time 1 
minute. When you get the temp and time where you want it, it takes about 30 
seconds and then it automatically starts.
Our Power Air Fryer Oven has 5 trays that you can put in it for massive amounts 
of food.
It also has a rotisserie rod, several kabab skewers and a rotating basket for 
things like fries, onion rings, shrimp etc.
We use it every day.

I'm glad my plain old Power Air Fryer oven has a screen that can be marked and 
navigated, then. The settings have a default that is what comes up each time it 
is turned on, same default time and temperature, and this doesn't change until 
the screen  is touched.

Yep, that sounds exactly like my power air fryer oven, even the settings 
and placement. I love it!!! I can have rotisserie chicken and not have 
to leave the house. I have the temp and time settings marked, the French 
Fry setting since this works for so many different foods, the rotisserie 
setting, and of course the on/off button marked.

The model I saw couldn't be marked in any way that would help. The dials don't

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

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.

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

Re: [CnD] Air fryer

2020-01-17 Thread Ann via Cookinginthedark
I'm glad my plain old Power Air Fryer oven has a screen that can be 
marked and navigated, then. The settings have a default that is what 
comes up each time it is turned on, same default time and temperature, 
and this doesn't change until the screen  is touched.

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.

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.

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

Re: [CnD] Air fryer

2020-01-17 Thread Ann via Cookinginthedark
If it's anything like my power air fryer model, the person will have to 
actually hit the power button to turn it on before things are visible on 
the screen to be marked.



And,, just a heads up ... my air fryer's touch screen is the most 
sensitive thing I've ever seen! It can feel a bit nerve racking before 
you get used to using it, just take the time to hit the right setting 
you want, and things will be fine.

Re: [CnD] Air fryer

2020-01-17 Thread Ann via Cookinginthedark
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.

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.

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
