Detecto's SlimTALK talking bathroom scales are ideal for the elderly, obese, blind, and telemedicine use. The scale is easy to use for the vision impaired and provides a clear, pleasant voice announcement of the weight in two languages: English or Spanish (switch selectable). The extra-wide platform accommodates patients of all sizes. The very low-profile platform is only 1.4 in/36 mm high for easy access. The bilingual SlimTALK scale features 400 lb x 0.1 lb / 180 kg x 0.1 kg capacity, 3 AAA batteries included, large 1.5 in/38 mm high LCD digits for clear readouts, and 5 carpet feet included. The step-on/off function allows for weighing without stooping to switch on the scales and conserves battery life. The SlimTALK has a durable plastic platform with textured surface for weighing traction and user safety.
