It had a regular plug - never worked, though. Don't waste your money or have the frustration.

Yes, it is electric, but has a standard plug, as I live in California. Make sure you follow directions as far as the type of water and the amount. My daughter and all her friends love it.

You do have to plug it in. Not European. Works pretty good, sometimes the jelly fish get stuck at the top? They do change coler and that is cool. Overall I really like it.Kathy

We used it in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and the plug was European, not British. Note that some German outlets are recessed, and we found that this plug was small enough to fit those as well.

What I received were the white 3 prong ones which then plug into 2 prong European plugs. I used it primarily for electronics which have the 120/220V options built into their power supplies. It worked great and plugged into outlets in France and other countries in eastern Europe.

It comes with an electrical plug. It must have been made in Europe because it comes with the adapter to take it from European to American Electricity.

It is not a European plug, it is a 20 amp plug. Most households only have 15 amp plugs. Replace the plug with a 20 amp plug, but first ensure that the plug being replaced is supported by a 20 amp breaker. (and shut the breaker off while replacing the plug!!) You can get the plug at any hardware store, they are easy to install.

Yes it is electric. The plug and cord is attached to the base of the toothbrush holderthat the toothbrush sits in when not being used. I hope this answers your question.

It's not electric. It is a good buy. I don't know about availability in Ireland. I am very happy with my unit. Very happy.

It's electric. The cord is a little short so you may need an extension depending on where you want to put it.

You're right.........that's a European plug in the photo.But the units I received had our American plug.The transformer is actually 110 or 240 volt.

There are certainly versions that are being sold that are international units. Unfortunately the reviews follow the product and not specific to any particular reseller. I've ordered a number of these in the last couple of months and so far I received 3 that appeared to be German that came with a European plug adapter. The device appears to work fine and I got a plug that worked but Its certainly something I'll inquire about in the future when ordering.

It is electric. It comes with a short cord, so you must supply your own extension cord.

No, it's electric -- you just need a long, heavy-duty extension cord. It's lightweight and easy to use and is a mighty little devil! I wish I'd bought mine sooner.

It is electric. I like the unit. My only issue is that the lid holders were missing and I have contacted the manufacturer without any resolution. Still waiting!!!

It is electric and needs an outlet. I would suggest another brand though...

Mine came with a European power supply. They added a converter, but unacceptable to me. I returned it.

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.
