Does the iron specify if its voltage is up to 220V or 240V? I need 240V but several of these dual voltage irons are only up to 220V. Thanks!

If you get consumer electronics (in general, not just this one) and something rated for 220V blows up on 240V, send it back. The two are used almost interchangeably, even by engineers, and if it's not built to tolerate at least 10% more (which is more than the difference between those two) it shouldn't be in mass production to begin with.

I threw the package away, and it isn't imprinted anywhere on the device that I can see. It says "worldwide dual voltage" which, in theory, should go up to 240v. I used it in Italy with no problems, if that helps. Otherwise here is an iron claiming 240v: http://dualvoltageflatiron.wordpress.com/2012/09/08/nume-pro-zebra-tourmaline-ceramic-hair-straightener-flat-iron-dual-voltage-110v-240v/ Nume zebra pro tourmaline ceramic straightener 110-240v

I got this directly from what it says in the manual that came with it, "Plug the straightening iron into a standard electrical outlet (120V)." So like the person before me said, 110V would be correct.

I used it in Colombia and in Spain (Different energy voltage) , the only thing you need to do is buy an adaptable plug, is really cheep. The iron will change de voltage automatically. In the instructions they show you how.

No , it is 120 volt and (240 volt for other countries) it has a switch for this change. It also has a switch for steam and dry ironing. But it does not have a auto shut off. My iron also burned up. I agree it is not a safe iron.

I used it in London and Germany on lower setting with converters. Converters will tell you which country they are for. Iron worked great on lower setting. I use my Chi daily at home but heard from a friend that hers got fried in Germany with a converter. From what I could gather, my friends fried their irons using the hottest settings therefore, I stuck with a lower setting. I had no problems.

I don't know what dual voltage is. if you mean like over seas, probably with a adapter, never had a problem with other curling irons with the adapters overseas

Hi. I just look at the web site www.remingtonproducts.com and it DOES say that the flat iron plug will automatically adjust to the 240 voltage. No switch needed, and one person has actually traveled with the flat iron and had no problems at all. A technician also answered with the same response of YES it will automatically adjust to the different voltage without any adapter. Hope this helps. Lori

All electrics sold on Amazon in the US, are made for 110, to avoid returns and mishaps from people not paying attention when the order is placed. You can, however, purchase the iron from Amazon UK as a 220v model:http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rowenta-Pro-Precision-Eco-PRECISION/dp/B00JZOZL1A/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid;=1421088740&sr;=8-6&keywords;=rowenta+pro+precision

From what I know you have to buy one that made for 220 volt which they sell. As far as back and forth to the us system I don't know. I can tell you for personal experience this iron/ steam generator is fantastic! I had two euro pros over the past 28 years this system is worth the price. I have no complaints about it at all. I live in a hard water area so I do use distilled bottled water. I sew on a daily basis so I need a iron/steam generator that works day after day and this one does.

This works great in Europe. I just returned from Italy. There should be an adapter in your box that you will plug your flat Iron into then their funky socket. The other thing is to switch to 220volt (off of 110v). And that's it!! You don't need a converter thanks to it being built in. This was a great purchase.

Yes.The iron included with the base plugs into the left side with a standard two-prong cord. The outlet itself, is a 3 prong grounded outlet. Above the outlet, it reads "< 300W Max, for soldering irons only". Just don't exceed the wattage rating and you should be fine to change the iron for another one.

The exact voltage has to be somewhere on the electrical item. If it's dual voltage, it will say 110v-220v. If it doesn't have both, it's not dual.

The iron works on 110 W and 220 W and there is 5-6 different adaptor plugs. It works amazing !

I use a standard outlet. This iron is awesome! I have had no issues at all.

My wife really loves this iron. I see nothing that specifically mentions 220V's. However, the material and instructions include just about every industrial nation in the world. We recommend this iron highly

It is a dual wattage iron. It is a standard 120 V for use here in the States and can be switched to 220 V for usage overseas,

If bought in the US or Mexico, then it designed for 120 V input only, not for used in countries with 220V or 240V outlets. So it might simply depend on where you purchased the iron, or for which market the iron is made.
