Hi Richard, I have their 9-cup set and also the measuring spoon set and they are very nice. Just looking on their website they do mention Maxiaids on their website under online sellers, but not Amazon at all. I also saw only one place in Canada, but I wonder if that is more of a wholesaler/distributor who then sells to smaller resellers.

They also have my favorite measuring spoons and cups which are made by Pourfect Products. They may be a little more expensive when buying direct from him, Or through Amazon, or LS&S or other places. https://www.pourfectbowl.com/\<https://www.pourfectbowl.com/> Richard, USA. “People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.” - Søren Kierkegaard My web site: https://www.turner42.com<https://www.turner42.com/> 🦅 From: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Monday, September 26, 2022 3:32 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: Talking scale Interesting. I decided to check the NFB Independence Market for kitchen scales. They sell the same one Sieghard recommended. Here is the information from their 2021 catalog available in Word from the link following the scales.

It also features a tare function, high/low volume switch, and speaks in four languages (English, Spanish, French, and German). The unit uses four AA batteries (included). AIK47S $40.00 TALKING KITCHEN SCALE (VOX 3000): This scale can weigh up to 6.6 pounds (3,000 grams) with 0.1-ounce (1-gram) precision. Items can be weighed on the weighing platform or in the plastic bowl which is included. The bowl has a capacity of six cups. The scale also features a tare function, which allows you to zero out the weight already on the scale. AIK40T $35.00 https://nfb.org/programs-services/independence-market You can order by phone or email, details on their site and in the catalog.
