Is this straightener dual voltage? Can it work in U.S., U.K., and Europe?

I used it in both the US and the UK. The plug is american, you will need an adapter, but otherwise it works well. It did not melt my hair off like some others can.

It is advertised as dual voltage on the package, but I haven't used it in a foreign country yet.

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

You will definitely need a convertor because it is 110v. It works pretty well but it is not the best straightening iron I've ever had. I work in Afghanistan and have to use a 110 convertor.

The dryer is dual voltage but I think you still need an adaptor appropriate for England.

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

It is not the voltage in this case, it is the wattage. Hotel 115V outlets that are meant for razors only have the power capacity to support razors, nothing more powerful, and a straightener uses a lot more power.

After doing a search for dual voltage flat irons, I ordered this one. When it arrived, there was nothing on the packaging or the product itself to make me think it actually was dual voltage. I came back to the website to double-check my information. I read again customers' claims that it is indeed dual voltage. I went over to the wall and, using a plug converter (from American flat to European round prongs), plugged it in. No sparks, no blown fuses. I live in Europe, and I wonder if the product will require replacement sooner than if I were in the States, but I'll cross that bridge later. I don't use a flat iron very often, so it may not be an issue. After doing a search for dual voltage flat irons, I ordered this one.

I'm pretty sure it is not dual voltage. I once wanted to buy dual voltage hair tools and they were hard to find.

Here is some info about a converter that you may want to check in to. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080121211719AAVfrRcI'm not sure that the above like I gave you will open. If you just "google" your question, such as "do I need a converter adaptor for my hairsetter in Europe", you will get a lot of information...much more than I could give you in my own words. Good luck!

It definitely is dual voltage...have used it successfully all over Europe...all it needs is an adapter plug

I ordered this for my husband who is a hair stylist. If by dual voltage you mean works both in the US and UK, then no. If you mean multiple heat settings, then yes. He says "It's better than any flat iron I've ever tried. It makes the hair so shiny and silky - instantly."Hope this helps.

I used it in Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia this summer with adapter plug (NOT converter) and it worked great. Does get hot so you need to be careful. My experience in Italy is that power can be variable at times so you just need to be extra watchful about overheating. But I had no problems in the countries I visited this summer and am pleased with this straightener.

yes the curling iron does have dual voltage. NO, the brush does not rotate. hope this helps!

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) Hi Virginia, This is NOT a dual voltage hair dryer.

Yes it is. I've never had a problem using it do travel. It is daul voltage. :) I love it. Best straightener I have had to date

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.)

I do not believe that it is dual voltage. I believe you could use an adapter for international travel just like you would need to use for your computer and razor.
