My husband battles this everyday. I find myself reaching for a magnifying glass every once in awhile. I can't imagine being visually impaired and having to find some of these numbers much less read the directions. Thanks for your comments. I am always on the lookout for interesting products and services. Small print is a big concern. My husband battles this everyday. I find myself reaching for a magnifying glass every once in awhile.

Your two articles were both very interesting. <br><br>We have been dealing with senior-friendly housing since my mom moved in with me a few years ago. It's definitely challenging, particularly for those in older houses. I loved the oven you described. We bought one that lets us know if the unit was left on, but I loved the thermometer option. I'll have to watch for that the next time I move! One thing that frustrates me, and I'm only in my 50s, is the tiny print on EVERYTHING from computers to fridges, to washers/dryers. And the odd placement of some of the information like serial numbers. If I have a problem trying to read a serial number that is way too tiny and requires major bending, I can't imagine what someone in their 70s or 80s must be feeling! Hopefully as the whole country is growing a bit older, this will continue to improve :) Hi, Thanks for joining us for the Boomers & Seniors Blog Carnival at SandwichINK – http://tinyurl.com/cudrpu .
