Hello,

I just came across your video and would love to own one of these. My Mom has a digital micro and it's horrible. Doesn't talk, but that's not the real problem I have with it. I can't even figure out what function I'm performing most of the time. DO you know where to purchase the LG Cobolt Speech Master in the states? THank you for any assistance.

@mrissamusica Hi Allison, thank you for your comment. If you google 'Cobolt systems ltd' you should be able to find their webpage. I believe they also have an Amazon shop. I am not sure if they ship to the US, but I think you could always drop them an e-mail. :)

Oh, that's cool.

Have you been blind since birth? Or did you lose your vision at a young age?

[Noryale]

@DJHey20 I'm not blind, but my flatmate has blind relatives and that's how we ended up with this microwave :)

[DJHey20]

I thought this microwave would be good for me, since I'm blind.

But then I found out they stop working a year after you've purchased them.

So I use a regular microwave with Braille labels on the buttons.

@DJHey20 ours lasted way more than that... with us it lasted +/- 18 months, and it belonged to someone before us for a while as well. The door sensor got a bit funny by the end... but other than that no complains :) We don't have 'Rupert' anymore, we got a smaller microwave now. We surely miss his voice 'tho! :)

WOW ! Super annoying !

@Noryale we have one of these at school

[DJHey20]

Now that I think about it, this microwave might be very useful for me. Maybe I'll look into it more.
