Can I use this iron in Europa ? We use 220volts.

I would say no, anyway, this is not the iron you want. I had nothing but trouble but purchased a Black and Decker iron and LOVE it. Not as expensive and ALOT betters. Does not lead and I am a sewer and use it everyday.

no you need an adapter for the European plugs if you travel but don't need to press any buttons on the flat iron to change settings...just plug in !

No have to buy an Europe electricity converted, 220 volt not going to work.

If I am not mistaken, Germany like other CE country use 220V, 50Hz, correct? If so you definitely need a step up transformer which can handle 1500W. Since this is a heating element apparel and not an electronic device, I am not sure if a converter will be suitable for it though.

No you can't ,but if you buy adebtor, which is use for exchange power from 110 to 220 , yes ,you can use it .

There is a converter adapter that you would connect the 110 Back2life machine to an Europe electrical outlet. I took a travel iron with me on a cruise ship and bought the adapter so I could use the iron. I would check with an electrical store.Regarding the response about the Back2life machine stated below. I felt back pain relief by the third day. My pain is caused by degenerative joint disease, arthritic pains and I use this machine daily.

Yes. C-type should work in Germany, Italy, and Austria. Note, however, it is an adapter and NOT a converter. It does not change the voltage from 220 to 110. Do not use it for a hairdryer or curling iron or any other 110 only device.

The nameplate on mine says "120 volt" & that applies to the iron and cord. It would not be safe to use on 220 volt . If you purchased a model designed for Europe, it would look similar but be rated appropriately .

110-120 AC, 50-60 Hz. There are European irons out there, with the round tip plug, but this isn't one of them. If you need one, consider a travel iron. I would not even consider using a voltage converter with a product that draws so much power.

Yes it will. I just came back from Italy and used this with a dual voltage Flat Iron I purchased on Amazon. It worked great. No convertor needed.

I believe you'd need a converter, but I'm not that familiar with 220v. Is that what is used in Europe?
1354937
Yes you can. The heavy iron is a perfect conductor of heat and it works great.

I can use all of my European 220V items. It is important that the power of the item is lower than the power of the power converter, as it is in your case. However, the U.S. power system works with a frequency of 60 Hz. When you are in a country that works with 50 Hz, I would not recommend to bring a washer. They usually need the frequency that they are made for. The converter does not convert the frequency.

I took it to Munich and used it with a standard travel adapter. It did not work. The adapter heated up, the iron di and the whole thing was unsuccessful. I had to buy a hot iron locally.Perhaps there is a different kind of adapter that does work, but don't count on using it with a a basic adapter that can't accommodate the amount of power this device draws.

I believe that you would need a power adapter; there was nothing in the manual about compatibility with European power.

not directly. you would need a converter like you need if you go to Europe to use your appliances over there.

Absolutely. You'll need an adapter, by you have a dual voltage switch. You won't have any trouble with the iron going cold or burning up. I'm leaving for Manchester on Thursday, and I already have the iron packed!
