I get so frustrated by the tiny print used for the directions and safety warnings on many household products including cleaning and washing products, directions for garden products like fertilizers, foods contents etc. What is the point of putting them if they can't be read? Even the warning pictures are sometimes they are very small and I don't always know what they mean.
It is the directions for use which I want to know and never sure how much product to use for different clothes washes. They keep changing the way the product is presented, liquid, powder, capsules. Then there are the measures, do they go in the machine or poured into the despenser. Recently I discovered I needed to put the capsule in the machine before the washing or it didn't dissolve properly, on close examination of the directions I saw this.
I do wear glasses and I have my eyes checked regularly and can read the very small print on the test. I always try to find a good light. I suppose I will have to keep the magnifying glass more at hand but many people don't have one.
Is there any organisation in the UK we could complain to, would gransnet express our concerns if enough gransnetters felt the same.? After all if you can't read the instructions it is dangerous.
