Our product descriptions and manuals

To help you understand how our products look and feel—even before you can hold them—we provide highly text-based web pages.

If you already own one of our products, the product descriptions and manuals will help you use it effectively. Especially if you are a teacher, you may want to read the texts carefully so you can follow what the VIP student needs to understand in order to get the most out of the products. You are welcome to use our explanations—so you don’t have to find your own words.
All texts are carefully curated by Jaap Breider, the designer of the products and a blind user himself.
