I had considered getting a few of them for mom's house, and programming them to work off of a pre-approved list of items she buys, but we ended up deciding to move in with and care for her ourselves instead. I have since then, added buttons on shelves for things we use often, things like dryer sheets, detergent, and a few basic pantry items that have made her life easier. Having her feel independent after us moving in and her giving up her driver's license has been key in keeping her happy. The big change came when the stove died on Thanksgiving, and an exact replacement was impossible. She still has issues knowing which buttons to press.
