Thanks for your info. Ordered one to use in HK and hope they do not change the provided variable transformer.UPDATE: The charger is 120-240V and the vac cleaner is really good. Should outperform similar products selling in HK.

No. Sorry, but the Sherpa is only a small (Low) wattage device. A rice cooker, ANYTHING that has heating elements in it are going to require at Least 1200 watts or more, whereas the Sherpa only provides for 80-160 watts. A small tv however can be run! I've run my bedroom tv during a brief power outage.

I don't think that it is, but I have had a large UK standard Samsung Fridge designed to run on 220v/50Hz working just fine for over a year now using the transformer to step it up. We also use a 220v Digital Pressure Rice Cooker and 220v Dyson Heater Fan, which all work just fine while plugged in.

Yes, this transformer will work for your appliance.It converts from 240v/220v/200v to 100v/110v/120v. The 10v difference is within the normal range and is not of an issue.

can not use in Hong Kong (220V) without transformer The difference is two places in particular Towards the WS is the new Is a multi-function "WGAYATAKI&#12288;&#12288;&#65288;My home cooking&#65289;&#12288;&#12288;"KIWAME&#12288;HOON &#65288;extremely warm&#65289; "&#12288;&#12288;two new menu is difference How to be stored in the rice cooker was to fine-tune how to cook to suit the taste of their own [home waterfall " It is a function to prevent the deterioration of the rice at the optimum temperature control as "extremely warm" I can not say anything just whether he really use because it is subtle adjustment transformer is about $100

We've been using this model for past 1 1/2 years and this particular model is strictly for 120 volt use w/ Korean announcement only. So far, we're very happy with this pressure cooker except it's kind a little pricey for rice cooker.

My relative lives in Hong Kong and has been using a 600 series (120v) non-stop for 4 years with a heavy duty step down transformer - still running w no problems. She purchased and used the unit for two years in the US prior to moving overseas. That said, there are distributors located throughout Asia who carry the 220v units. However their list prices (in HK at least) were 40-60% more expensive than US sellers.

It appears that it does accept the UK plug. I tried it on a rice cooker that has the UK plug and it worked.

NicoleYou must purchase a step down from ebay so you can use this machine.Step down from 240v to 120v very important you do that or it will burn down.This is a great rice cooker.

The cooker is rated fro 120V, 200 watts. A 1500 watt 220:110 travel converter meant for heating only appliances such as a hair dryer or irons should work fine.

The voltage should work worldwide, the thing is what kind of contact or plug you have there in China, as the iron comes with the A plug type.

Yes it will -BUT you'll need to stop by a Radio Shack and purchase a 110V (used in US) to 220V (Europe) converter. The converter should be rated at AT LEAST 15-20 watts. (General rule: Add at least 20% to the appliance's wattage usage. If the appliances is a motor-driven device, there will probable be a quick, larger power draw by the appliance as its motor starts, so adding 50% to the converter's max output would not be a bad idea.) Because the ANDIS draws ony 10 watts, a 15 watt converter should be fine for the device. Also: Make sure the countries you are visiting have the same plug configuration as your adapter. Try googling "electrical plug configurations for european countries," print the page and ask the staff where you purchase the converter to provide you with adapters that are appropriate for the countries you are visiting. Total cost for the electrical and plug configuration adapters should not cost over $30. If if you're on a budget and if RS wants more than that - and if you have time before your trip, shop elsewhere with the information you've gotten from Radio Shack.

My manual shows a picture of both a 120V type plug and a 220V-240V type plug. It also references both plug types in the section the describes how to plug the cord into the outlet. Given this information, I assume the manufacturer would ship a unit that is compatible with the power requirements of your location. It's an awesome rice cooker--the best I've owned. The brown rice setting makes perfect rice every time.

I afraid I have to say this rice cooker only comes with US 2 pin-plug and the power cord can not be replaced by a 3-pin plug. It also only use the 110-120V power.

Any cord of the type that connects to a desktop computer will work. Use one from an old computer you have sitting around or purchase one from AMazon (http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-6-Feet-Replacement-Power-Cord/dp/B00000J1UQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1363461756&sr=8-2&keywords=computer+power+cord and many other sources listed in a search on Amazon) A manual is available here: wpcookware.com/instructions/BDRC0010.pdf Just add the "http://" to the address above and download the pdf file for viewing or printing. BTW, parts for the appliance are available at the site as well. Just go to wpcookware.com and click on "Appliances" and then search for your rice cooker model.

I purchased one from the US to discover that it was only 110 v but have found a reasonably priced transformer does the job. Works well.
