Braun Multiquick 7/k3000 220v: Can the Braun Multiquick 7/k3000 be used In the USA with a converter or do they make a model for north America?

Yes, you can use a converter, transformer, needs to be rated for two times the volts, so a 950v needs at least a 1900v converter, you can expect to pay around $100 for one that will work.

Any American electrical product needs a transformer to work in Europe. When I lived there, I used one in my kitchen to plug in all of my appliances, even the GE refrigerator I took over with me.

Yes, the converter can handle both step up and step down conversion. Therefore if you are taking 220/240V devices to a 110V region or vice versa, US(110V) to Hong Kong (220V), this device is what you need. Bare in mind - you can run all the appliances off of one converter using a multi-plug. To determine the size of the transformer you require, tally all the wattage of the devices you'll be taking with you and multiply this by 2. Therefore, if you'll be using a 1000W microwave and a 500W kettle, and want to use them at the same time, you'll need a 3000W transformer.

This Braun WK300 will not work in New York because it is 220Volt. You need a 110 Volt for the United States.

As far as I can tell, it's U.S. only. Chef's Choice could make a European version, but I don't see reference to that anywhere. If you're on a non-US 220 standard, you can buy a transformer here at Amazon....http://www.amazon.com/Simran-200-Converter-International-Countries/dp/B000W9DJ1Q/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_1

There are in fact transformers to convert Europe 220 volt to American 120 volt. See Amazon Voltage Converter From 220/240 to 110/120 &From; 110/120 to 220/240by Seven StarI have used them they work fine.

Nothing I see is stated about that. It does state, "universal voltage for worldwide use." It does specifically say, that you are NOT TO USE THIS WITH ANY VOLTAGE CONVERTER! The last answer is wrong for this flat iron. Possibly It converts automatically. Here is a telephone number I found on the brochure where you may get some better answers. Good luck. 1 770-552-8000 (they are located in Atlanta Georgia.)

You can order the MB220 for 220V from Amazon UK (amazon.co.uk). The US version only works with 120V or less.

The USA model will only accept 120V power. There are some merchants who will include a 220V transfomer to allow you to use it overseas. You must check the item listing if a transformer is included (some merchants charge extra for the transformer). Otherwise, it will be only for USA locations.

Not the version I have. I'm in the U.S. and most of our devices/appliances run on 120v. Unless it's something heavy duty.

This is for 220V-240V. As you know, the U.S. uses 110V. If you want to use in the U.S, you have to connect the voltage transfomer from 220V to 110V. I believe you can find same model with 110V. Try.....

Hi, Even though it is recommended to use a converter, but since the voltage difference is not significant, and after consulting an electrician, we have use it in the us wo converter successfully. My mother in law is Japanese who have brought many things electrical from Jspan to use here in US wo problem. She thinks we fuss too much for nothing. Hope this help.

From my experience these are appliances to be used in the US with 110-120v. Still you can used them in 220-240v countries with a "50-1600 Watt Travel Voltage Converter Transformer " or simmilar. See Amazon's http://www.amazon.com/Converter-Transformer-Worldwide-Adapters-overseas/dp/B003E40AMW/ref=pd_sim_e_12 Technical Details Converts 220/240-volt Electricity to 110/120-volt power for use in locations world-wide Includes 5 adapters for different plug-in types around the world;Fuse Protection, Travel Case, Small and compact size - weighs only 1.5 lbs! size: 6" x 4" x 3". Two seetings: 1600W - Designed for heat-related (resistive) appliances like hair dryers, irons, heating pads, etc 50W - Designed for small electronics such as battery charger, phone charger, shavers, mp3 players. While living abroad, we used our fryer, ricer, waffle maker and raclette with one of these 1600 Watts set converters.

Even though made in Germany--I think--this unit only works in the USA--sorry--I suppose you could get a small converter to use but would add bulk.

Yes, you just have to make sure you get the multi voltage version. The one they sell in the US, is usually only 110, but the ones they typically sell in Europe and elsewhere are multi-voltage, meaning from 110-240V. The one I bought in Germany had a sticker on the box saying "Dual Voltage".

This is ready for use in the United States & Canada. If your able to get a converter, then you should be able to use it anywhere.

I work in Norway and have one of these in NYC. After alot of research there is nothing available with 220v and I would not trust a converter. Better to by another model in Europe
