Can I use this appliance in United Kingdom please

An adapter is definitely needed- the UK plugs are much bigger with a 3 prong configuration. Also, their voltage is 220 so you need more than just an adaptive plug. I purchased an appliance that had a switch from 110 to 220 which made it easier for travel--then carried different plug configurations for travel through Europe.

You would probably have to use an adapter...but from judging from my friends in the UK, I am aware that American Appliances don't last long using the adapters...hope that helps.

I have this appliance and like it very much. It is my second one in approximately 15yrs. It has a US-style electrical plug; which is to say it is designed for use with 120VAC outlets. I have successfully used similar dryers/curling irons with adapters while traveling in several western European countries and elsewhere in the world and don't remember any problems - but only while traveling. I can't say if this will work well on a long-term basis. Good luck!

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

Actually I don't know, the appliance does not have a change of plug, and I only use it in the usa.

This will NOT work in Great Britain. They have different outlets that differ from many of the outlets in mainland Europe. I suggest you search for an adapter that specifies use in the UK.

Yes! Just make sure the switch is where it needs to be. You'll need something sharp and thin to fit into it in order to change it. I travel between the U.S. and England frequently and this blow dryer hasn't failed me yet.

Yes, if you use a step up/ step down transformer you can use this device. Not sure about the other commenters but I know this for a fact as I have many appliances from the USA and I use them in other countries I move to and I use a step up/down transformer.

Electronics in the US are wired for 110volts. It might work but not as well ... or maybe take longer. You are better off finding one with the correct voltage. I believe that Singapore works with UK voltage and plug configuration. I find a toaster made for UK. I didn't see this particular model available, but I did find this lovely 2-slice KitchenAid toaster on amazon.co.uk ... http://www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenAid-Artisan-2-Scheiben-Toaster-metallic/dp/B000KEDXSW/ref=sr_1_7?s=kitchen-appliances&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1386499909&sr;=1-7&keywords;=kitchen+aid+toaster.

This item is rated 110-120V AC 60Hz with a two prong polarized plug which is the North American norm. The UK uses 230V 50Hz with 3 prongs. Therefore, in order to use this appliance in the UK you will need a Voltage Converter and Plug Adapter. These are often sold in kits in airports and drug stores.

Yes, you definitely can. Buy the international version, and I'm sure it will work perfectly.

I don't see why it would not work anywhere in the world. The only thing that might be addresses would be anadapter for the electrical plug. We have had to carry one of these when we traveled to Europe.Enjoy this time-saving appliance.

What UK appliance are you trying to use here in the USA. You can use any of the Simran AC models like Simran AC-100, Simran AC-200, AC-500, AC-1000 etc depending on the wattage of your appliance. Remember to leave enough margin for power spike while buying a transformer. You may call us at 630-775-1700 and we can help you in deciding the model that you would need.

No. Need transformer or something like that. Because in UK is 220 - 240. If you can, buy things without charger or if you know how change the voltage in charger then buy it.

KitchenAid does not recommend it but they will work with a transformer. It will nullify the warrenty if you take one out of the US.

It is approved for use in the US and Canada. My husband points out that it wouldn't be difficult to modify to make it workable, but as-is, it is not usable in the UK.

You will need to find a type G strip for it to work in the UK but this type of device will work for all your devices as you say

All you will need is a voltage converter plug for that country which I am sure amazon sells and it will not be a problem. I have a friend in England who uses a converter

I don't believe this US model can however the amazon.co.uk site does offer a UK version which would be 220 volt if that helps!
