Yes- this is dual voltage. i have used it in Europe and India. Just needs the country specific adapter plug.I have been using this regularly for about 2 years.

This item is an ADAPTOR not a converter. It adapts the pins of electrical outlets to match different configurations. A voltage CONVERTER adapts the voltage. If your device (look hard) says the voltage is 110-240 then you only need an adapter and not a converter. In my experience, most newer devices from computers and cell phones to curling irons are "dual voltage" as stated above.

This does NOT have the dual voltage switch. I ordered it thinking it does, but the US model does not have it. In the owners manual, in the diagram of the back of the unit, it states that this switch is only present on "general" models, whatever that means. I was hoping to use this in Brazil, which I still will do, but I will need to plug it into a power downconverter.

This iron has a polarized plug ( one blade is larger than other) for 120v and European plug for 220v. As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. Info from page 2 of manual

Yes it is dual voltage. I actually purchased this while in Germany and it worked great.

It is not dual voltage, and you should contact KitchenAid to find out if you should even use a converter or step down with their machines. It may void the warranty.

Yes, it IS dual voltage. I'm not sure about using it in Europe having never traveled.

it is not dual voltage. 110 volt only. I don't know if they make one you need.

WHat you mean to say is "Is this dual voltage" ---for europe, india etc. The answer is NO.

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.

Yea, this is most definitely not dual voltage although it says so. I took it to Europe under the assumption it was. I also used a converter and it still died on me.

I just searched mine again for any indication of dual voltage. Mine is 110/120V only.

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

I dont think so, there is not a botton to change between voltage .. it doesnt have a temperature controller neither.. but is a good iron my wife likes it and she use it to work..

Hi Virginia, This is NOT a dual voltage hair dryer. If you are traveling, the wattage in Europe is 220/125. To change the voltage you would have to purchase a very expensive and heavy voltage converter (which people used to do years ago before dual voltage hair dryers and other appliances). Two choices: one, buy a dual voltage here and then buy the various plugs for each country, or purchase a dryer in Europe which is not dual voltage, but only for European plugs. I purchased one in Paris and another in London many years ago, they work great. Good luck (Conair makes a cheap one that works)

According to the specifications listed about the curling iron, it is dual voltage
