would this work with any usa plugs and anywhere in ITALY? -- I read some of the reviews, that they didn't. Thank you.

All I can say is it worked in Bologna, Milan, Varenna and Turin. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work elsewhere in the country.

I don't know about everywhere in Italy but we used them in Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, Sorrento, Levanto, Casino and a few places in between. We used them for our iPhones and cpap machine along with a Kindle. I did have a hairdryer I used and it had a dual voltage feature but a US plug. It was set on 240. Everything else was just as we used them at home. Hope this helps.

Type B will work in the US. All the others have specific countries they can be used at. When I lived in Spain I took my plug to Italy and it worked for me. I haven't been to Italy since, but Type C and Type E/F should work in Italy. They are the two I have recently used in Spain, Austria, and Germany.

This is a plug adapter from just about any type of plug to a plug type common in Italy. This will not work in the US; you will need another plug adapter for that. However, you could plug in something that has a plug type from the US into this converter and be able to plug the converter into an outlet in Italy to use it. Also, be aware that the amount of power that a typical plug in the US outputs is different than in Italy, which means that you may need a voltage converter as well since this particular plug converter does not include a voltage converter.

It depends on the charger's specifications. The adapter changes only the shape of the plug; it doesn't convert voltage. US voltage is 120; Italy's is 220. Many electronic components automatically switch between 120 and 220 volts; if your charger does that then it's good to go. For instance, I had no trouble whatsoever with my laptop and my smartphone charging, but my sister fried her hair dryer because it was 120 volts only.

These will work in France and Italy. For England you'll the following adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Ceptics-Grounded-Universal-Plug-Adapter/dp/B0080R95XI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1432916852&sr=8-1&keywords=uk+adapter

Thanks for answering. Do I need a different surge protector for Italy than the ones we have in USA?

The adapter that comes in the kit will work in Italy. The charger plugs into the adapter and then the adapter will plug into the wall socket.

It plugs into my car through a power port. Not a direct 120volt house plug in.so I don't know if you can use it in Italy or not...

I used these in Italy with my Kindle, a small electric fan, and flat iron (all these were U.S. type plugs) with NO other converter or anything added - just one of these on the plug and then straight into the wall. Hope this helps.

Yes it will, you will use the supplied 2 pin rounded outlet head. Note that in Italy the plug will have 3 pins when you see it. But the centre pin is the ground and you don't need it since USB devices are insulated and are not large appliances.

I used mine in Italy for 4 months and it worked perfectly. You will still need an adapter because it has a US plug but I didn't use a transformer or converter or anything

I don't know for sure - I haven't been there yet - but I think it will work with the Italian type-L sockets -- I am not sure if it fits in the recessed kind of outlets they may have in newer installs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets#Italy_CEI_23-16.2FVII.28Type_L.29

We have no prob with ours.. and we're in Louisiana. So, to answer your question--all plugs/accessories work in the states :)

The plug in the unit itself fit the sockets in Italy. However, for s few dollars more, I bought a set of the adaptor plugs which fits nearly all the different plugs around the world.

This power strip has a 3-prong plug. To use it in Italy I purchased an adapter with 2-prong plug and it worked beautifully.

The plugs will only accept 1 ungrounded plug each. They work in Spain but we were not in Italy. In any event, as part of the amazon description you should be able to determine which countries it works in. That's how we determined which plug to buy.

I successfully used them on a recent visit to France. Here is s link to a reference citing the types of plugs used in all countries. It also indicates that some sockets will be compatible with outlets that use a different outlet. I hope this is helpful. http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugs-and-sockets/

I u sed it in Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg and it worked well. Haven't tried it in Italy and Portugal - check the one of the websites for which plugs work in each country.

I used it in Italy. Think some countries may have different voltage...so not sure on others.
