I purchased an Indian grinder 230 V, 50 Hz, 85 W and 1350 RPM, and would like to use it in USA which is 110 V, 60 Hz. Do I need to buy the 1000 W?

Sorry, I don't know. I bought this a while back and have read instructions about the range for V, Hz, and W it can handle. I bought exactly what I needed and it didn't work. This one was bought for slow cooker from USA to work in Europe and it doesn't work. The cooker appears not to have enough of 'power' to cook anything. Sorry I can't help. Read specifications!

Yes, you will have to step up the 110 V to 220 V for the Indian grinder. I do not believe the difference in operating frequency will cause any problem.

110v, We have been very satisfied with this product, however the grinder needs to be cleaned regularly. About every 3rd hopper of beans and then you need to clean throughly.

It is 110V. I installed new granite counter-tops in my kitchen. I used this grinder to finish all the raw edges on about 80' of 1" thick granite (no bullnose) with diamond sanding pads from 50g to 3000g. The grinder did the job well and is still going strong. If you buy this grinder, I recommend putting masking tape over the speed setting switch (after achieving a good working speed). The problem is that my hand rested right on the switch while working and the speed setting kept changing.

According to Baratza, for outside of N. America they manufacture a 230/V AC 50/60 HZ. .5 Amps model. You could contact them online to find further details.

I used a variable speed drive that I plugged my fixed speed grinder into.A fixed speed grinder turns much to fast without using something to slow down the RPMs

If you are buying it in America, it is only 110v. You'll need to get an adapter to convert 240v in India to 110v for the mixer.

It is a 1000 watts appliance, and you will need a converted as it is a 110 v

I've used it only on 110 v. I believe the burrs are conical. They also sell replacement burrs. I've used it exclusively for espresso grind. It works very well and easily gets fine enough.

i see no real differance but beware that they are not the power they claim. but if your just doing small batches it is ok for a entry level sausage maker. but if you make 20 to 50 pounds at a time like we do then you really want to step it up to a more heavy duty grinder. our cabellas 1 hp grinder will do 600 lbs a hour and not slow down. hope this helps paul

The model I received, Makita 9557PBX1 4-1/2-Inch grinder, is not variable speed. Nowhere on or included with the grinder indicates variable speed - only one speed, no load 10,000 rpm.

Not recommended. Women's blow dryer require more than 1000W to operate with heat on. The good ones are on the 2000W range. Once you start blowing with heat you will eventually burn the fuse. You have to use a step up transformer with the appropriate rating. Unfortunately, any step up transformer of 1000W and above I have seen are massive (like 10lbs). By chance I have one 1000W and another 1500W. I use the second for my European expresso machine and works fine. I tried one 1850W blow dryer on both and the difference is noticeable and even in the big one it is not like it used to be in Singapore @ 220V outlet. Bottom line: It is cheaper and easier to have a second 110V blow dryer.

No idea. I do have a full sized Delta variable speed grinder on it. The stand is very stable, no wobble or walking when in use. Could be a bit taller for me but probably ok for average height. Over-all kind of typical made in Taiwan or China quality (but then what isn't made in China now days)

Guys, don't mix Volts and Watts. ynashatz, if there was a clipper with 220 Watts of power, I would pay $700-$8-- for each (I am always power hungry)But "A Reader got it right". No hard feelings, just want to help those that might ask the same question. It is 45 Watts, 220-240 Volts and 50 Hertz (50 cycles per second).
