Product Description
Newline's talking bathroom scale can clearly announce the weight in lb or kg. Talking function can be turned off. User-friendly greetings, no programming needed. Simply tap on the talking scale slightly with your foot to "wake" it up. (This scale is very sensitive & easy to turn-on, one slight tap will be ok.)
The scale will say, Please wait; after 1 second, Ok, please step on the scale. Step on the talking scale and it will announce your weight to a tenth of a pound or kg in a loud clear female voice, as well as display the results on the large LED readout. After ten seconds of non-use, the scale automatically shuts off. No need to search for buttons! No need to bend over to read the display! It is ideal for the blinds or vision-impaired. If no voice is desired, the voice mode can be switched off by a button on the back of the scale.
The beautiful Contemporary Glass design is sturdy and easy to clean. The talking scale is accurate within 1 percent of your weight (+ or -). It is designed to use on a hard flat surface. Carpeted or uneven surfaces will distort the accuracy of the scale.
1 year limited warranty. Capacity: 20 kg / 440 lb Graduation: 0.1 kg or 0.1 lb. Uses 2 "AAA" batteries (not included due to National Security transportation rules). Slide the battery compartment (at the back of left hand side) door to open.

 Good scale if you can't read the dials November 7, 2009
Karl R. Brobeil (Warren, MI)
We bought this scale you an elderly person you needs to weight themselves daily but have a hard time reading scale dials and displays. This scale has a digital display but also provides verbal commands. The voice is load and clear. The instructions are a little unclear as to where the batteries are installed (there is only one battery compartment). The other minor drawback is that is takes a few seconds to active the scale before you can get on and another few seconds before you are given the weight reading. Could be a problem for people with poor balance.
 I need help as battery compartments don't open. October 9, 2009

There are no instructions on how to open the 2 battery compartments. I've tried everything I can think of with no luck. Probably something very simple but I can't seem to find the secret and I'm feeling pretty stupid! Hope someone can help.
THANKS.
 Very good buy September 19, 2009

I like the look of the scales and they are accurate. I wear glasses and the numbers are large enough to read but i use the voice. it is easier. I was afraid that being glass they would break under the weight but they are sturdy. I am very happy with them. They are a good buy.

Pretty good quality. Looks great. Got for a near blind older woman who needed a scale that could tell her her weight. Works great out of the box. However, it's a bit frustrating that you basically have to kick it slightly to turn it on before stepping on it. Not a problem for non-blind, but then why would non-blind need a talking scale? I mean, I like it and am grateful it works and it's a lifesaver for the person I bought it for, and I'd buy it again. just in a perfect world, it would just turn on when stepped on the first time.
Oh the honesty September 3, 2009

I bought this scale for two reasons--it talks and its capacity. Both work very well for my purpose. It's not hard on the eyes either!
