The Fire tablets have both VoiceView and TTS in multiple languages. They are not eReaders of course but might be an inexpensive option to consider.

I am not aware of any current eReaders that offer TTS, apart from those running Android and that would allow 3rd party Android reading apps with this feature.
That seems to be what my research has found as well. My daughter is wanting a reader but would like TTS. I will probably get her a reader and an audible subscription.
