I have not used it for that, but I have used it for my Delonghi espresso, coffee, latte, and grinder machine. It works flawlessly. I upgraded to the heavy duty stu 2000 based on reviews from others, and was very pleased. Basically you can convert EU here and if you are in EU, you can convert it to US.

I looked in the users manual on the KitchenAid web site, and it says it's 120 Volts/60 Hertz, so you could probably use it in Europe if you have a transformer - but I haven't tried it. I'm in Germany, and we have used different appliances with a transformer in the past with no problem - but I have't tried this anywhere else in Europe. KitchenAid does sell German models of some of their appliances, but I was not able to find an online store that sold hand mixers - only the bigger counter-top models; and they were considerably more expensive than this hand mixer.

It worked perfectly for converting U.S. appliances to operate on Irish power. which was the only place we used it. It comes with adapters to adjust for different power sources. You just have to be careful to follow the instructions which are included.

I was in Europe, using a converter I bought from Brookstone, and fried my last Wahl trimmer. It was an expensive mistake. I recommend using a local Barber.

Go to KitchenAid's website to ask the company your question. Also, do an internet search for companies in Europe that convert American appliances. When I was in Europe I burned out a hair dryer while using a converter. So I don't recommend using a converter unless KitchenAid recommends it.

There is currently one for sale on eBay that was evidently purchased in Italy, and thus will work on 220. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BaByliss-Pro-Volare-V2-Red-Hair-Dryer-/321341869601

That is the only way you could use this product, when my sisters husband and her were based in Germany they had to use a transformer on all the electronics they took with them.

Yes, you can. I have this transformer the whole time for my summer vacation last year with no problem, I also brought some electronic stuff back and brought another transformer and use here in US.

It should work but the big disclaimer for any of these transformers is that they are not intended for continuous use.... So I have no idea how constant use will impact.... It should work though as I use a sewing machine from Europe here in the US with same requirements and it works great. I do however always unplug when not in use.

I went to this web site: http://www.kitchenaid.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/OCManualsLiteratureSearchResultView?catalogId=10552&langId=-1&storeId=10202 Their in the PDF's marked as version "1" I found a page that said the device worked only on 120 Volts AC and 60 Hz. If have Amazon type this in the search window "Simran AC-5000 Step Up/Down Voltage Converter Transformer 110V/220V - 5000 Watts" right now it is $161 Dollars US. This contraption will allow you to power up ***any*** American made device, less than 5000 Watts of coarse. Many of the hotels are putting smaller versions in their rooms for their American patrons. I traveled a bit before I retired and I noticed American products tend to be cheaper, so the investment up front for the transformer could be big savings down the road of time. You order the outlets from Amazon and have a dual power grid through out your home. One 220/50Hz and one with 120/60Hz. I hope this was helpful.

I recently purchased and used this converter in France. It worked well there, but I am not sure about Italy.

Hi Liza. Do you feel comfortable using a transformer? If you do, then yes, it could be used in Europe. I know people who have used their KitchenAid products in Europe. Enjoy!

I have an older model that was sold in store in USA. I would not take a chance with voltage. Best bet, contact Braun directly to see if they sell a USA compatible model. It is a great machine. Have owned mine over 25 years.

We have sold many Oral Breeze units to customers from Europe, and they have not had trouble installing the unit on European plumbing. It may be possible to purchase an adaptor from your local hardware store if one is needed to convert from US standard plumbing to European plumbing. We do offer a 30 day money back guarantee. If you are not happy with the Oral Breeze we accept returns within 30 days from your purchase date. No hassles, no questions, we just refund your purchase price upon receipt of your undamaged product. Thank you, Oral Breeze

Unless your Kitchen Air states that it runs on 200 then you will have no problem. But if it does not and it is set for US 120 then you will have to have a transformer to make it work. And the transformer must be large enough to operate the product. If you are military, or contractor you will have no problem getting one. Also, local German economey will have them. Good Luck

This one sold in the U. S. is 120 volts only. If you take it to Europe you would need to buy a step down transformer. It would be cheaper just buy one in the area that you are going to use it. This unit does not a release function so if it jams you will have to throw it in the trash. You need to get the cleaning papers for the rollers which I did not get and I no longer have the unit.

Yes, I used it in Italy last year. Works great - don't forget to change the electrical voltage to 250 on the curling iron. To save space, I only took the smaller brush. Looks just like the photo. The rows of brush bristles are spaced pretty far apart. I could not find any other dual voltage curling brush, so this one was fine. Have fun in Italy! (p.s. of course you have to use an adapter plug to fit the Italian wall receptacles - but you do NOT need a CONVERTER because the brush is dual voltage)
