I'm in Australia and I would love to buy this orange grill if somebody can tell me if the electric cord works in Australia or just America?

Someone else asked this question on this blog and someone answered that they should purchase a "step-up" transformer. I hope this helps.

I have one exactly like this. I used it all over Australia and it worked fine.

It has it's own power cord, I do not know why it would not work in Australia.

I haven't had to replace my cord. I have several George Fireman grills and all of my cords are still in tact. I suggest you contact the manufacturer. You can also clean the grill when it's cooled with a dry paper towel. Sorry Cynthia, wish I could be more helpful.

The operating voltage is 120VAC, 60Hz for North America region. Australia is using 230VAC at 50Hz power system. This will not work in Australia region.

Unfortunately in China. It took two tries to get one that worked well... second one had same problem and they admitted the whole container load probably did. I kept it because it is a great convenience even with its malfunctioning aspect. Cheap price/cheap craftsmanship. But I never could find another product that did the same things. FYI: Don't keep Chinese made appliances or lamps plugged in, even if shut off. Fire hazard.

I have this blow dryer, bought it from Amazon & I live in Italy/ It works also in Switzerland. It has two prongs for an outlet. I am not sure if it works in AUS. It is for standard European outlets.

The manufacturer is correct. I'm guessing that amazon might be doin some false advertising or whatever. Ps. I still however really like the grill. Its easy to use and does it's job well. I say get it. Also the grill is little big so make sure u have the space for it

Hi. I live in Auckland and got my cousin to bring back one for me. It's a "must-have" if you're serious about charcoal BBQing on your Weber

It works only if you use an adapter plug. Why not buying one for Australian outlet?there are cheap on Amazon or ebay about 5 dollar

If you mean the cord you plug in...mine has 2 flat ends and 1 round(ground). Are you in the states? Sometimes overseas they have different plug in types. Here is a website from Weber where you can ask a question. http://help.weber.com/ask/Or you can call them at Customer Service 1-800-446-1071. The plug does not sound right.

http://www.sausagemaker.com/32603d-5fooddehydratorwith14stainlesssteelshelves.aspxAccording to their website it is - 800W/110V Heating Element.I think Australia is 230V and not 110V so this will not work unless you buy a converter that lets you step it down to 110V.

I know that my Pioneer DV-610 AV-K will play Australian dvds. I love the comedy tv series The Games, it makes me laugh till I'm in pain. The owner's manual for the 610 says that it will work on 240 volt 50 hertz electricity, which is what WikiAnswers says comes out of the wall in Australia (give or take a few volts, which isn't important). So my guess would be yes, all you need would be an adapter plug or power cord that plugs into your wall socket. Do you own a fire extinguisher? Just kidding. Mostly. But you want more than a guess. Go to 220-Electronics or World-Import (both dot com) for their email address(es). Either store will know for sure. Good luck.

China. Don't buy it -- not necessarily because it's made in China (unless that's your sole criteria). But I bought this with high hopes. I want to know what temp my food is -- especially when grilling. Within a couple of weeks, the silicone-encased cord on one of the probes went bad and quit working. Then a couple of months later, the second one when bad. I called Taylor and asked them to send me a replacement cords -- and asked specifically if they would send me a braided metal-encased cord (which I had with a previous Taylor thermometer -- that worked for 18-24 months). The rep told me they don't make them that way anymore. When I asked why, she said it was too expensive. (Remember that lesson in Econ about "planned obsolescence"? Concept, in action. She nicely offered to replace the whole unit ("just this once"). That was nice. But rather than continue to monkey with these crazy digital thermometers, I ponied up nearly $100 for a Thermapen. And I love it. Fast, accurate, and hand made.

Not exactly sure what and Australian cord looks like, but I would think that a hardware store would have an adapter for an American plug to plug into your Australian receptacle.........also, Possibly contact an electrician in your area.

Australia uses 240 volt 50 hertz. This model is 120 volt. I can call Kitchen Aid in Ohio to see if they sell them prewired for Australian use.
