Assistive Tech: As Easy as 1, 2, 3!
Reaching into a hot oven can be a significant challenge, creating a risk of serious burns. The Avanti Safe-Reach Oven Tool is a simple yet essential piece of low cost assistive technology designed to eliminate that risk. It empowers users to handle hot oven racks and pans with confidence and control, making the kitchen a safer and more accessible space for everyone.
This assistive kitchen aid is thoughtfully designed to provide stability and protection during the fundamental daily task of cooking.
Prevents Burns with Extended Reach:
The long, stay-cool handle allows you to push and pull racks and pans from a safe distance. This is ideal for individuals with limited mobility, balance concerns, or for wheelchair users, as it eliminates the need to lean precariously into the hot oven cavity.
Secure Control for Pushing & Pulling:
The specially designed head features unique notches that securely hook onto oven racks and pan edges. The side notches provide a firm grip for pulling, while the end notch gives you precise control for pushing, reducing the physical strain and risk associated with handling heavy, hot cookware.
Heat-Resistant & Safe to Handle:
Crafted from high-grade silicone, this tool is heat resistant up to 240°C, so it will not melt or warp with oven contact. The entire handle remains cool to the touch, ensuring it is always safe to grip and manoeuvre without needing an oven mitt for the tool itself.
This Safe-Reach Oven Tool is a perfect example of assistive technology that supports "Improved Daily Living" goals within an NDIS plan. By removing a common barrier to cooking, it promotes greater independence, builds confidence in the kitchen, and enhances safety during a fundamental daily activity, reducing reliance on support for meal preparation.
