Single serve systems like Keurig that are dual voltage Anyone know of a single serve machine that does coffee, tea and hot cocoa that is either dual voltage or 220V. I will be living in Germany for a bit and want to have my coffee,tea. I love the Keurig but do not want to use a transformer with it (damages the machine). Any suggestions?

Many thanks to anyone who has information on this. My career takes me between Europe and America, so a good dual voltage coffee maker would be good Thanks

I'm power adapter started smoking , it works great in my amp , but when I put the keurig on it , smoke came from adapter

I have been using a Keurig B40 in Germany (with a power converter) for more than a year now with no issues.
1297591
by power converter, you mean a transformer? or an adaptor that just switches the plug? thanks

I work in Norway and have one of these in NYC. After alot of research there is nothing available with 220v and I would not trust a converter. Better to by another model in Europe

The converter works well here in Germany however, it requires a minimum of a 1500W converter. Converters pull power 100% of the time so unplugging and plugging are part of the daily routine to reduce your electric bill. Before you invest see if you can borrow someone's 1500W converter to see if you home can support it first. They are around $200 on base.

The converter is not the problem... I'm having problems by getting the K-Cups in the Netherlands. When I order from Amazon.com it tells me they will not ship to my address in Europe. I found some sample packages which I could order on eBay, but I'd like to buy some flavours. Does anyone know a site which ships K-Cups to Europe?

This item will be works perfectly !! I have a 220V 1500 watt coffee machine i use almost 2 years so far is great :)))

The unit is 1400 watts, any common 15 amp AC outlet can handle the load with ease. This machine is for coffee pods only. Search for the Bunn MCU Single Serve Multi-Use Brewer for a model that can be used 4 different ways. That model will make just hot water, or use coffee pods, or use regular loose ground coffee, or the "K" cups. These Bunn brewers are "first class" for single serve coffee makers and are well worth the money!

Yes, i'm using in my house 110v and 120v, it perfectly work in both places!!! and enjoy my coffee!!! you can try it!!!

I don't know but I would doubt it. you may be able to buy a separate electrical adapter though. I would recommend the Keurig mini over this one anyways. I owned both this one and the Keurig and found the Keurig just makes better coffee, even with the same water supply & same coffee.

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. After doing a search for dual voltage flat irons, I ordered this one.

No, sorry, it isn't dual voltage. You would definitely need to use a voltage converter with it for 220v.

Hi. No, it doesn't have dual voltage. You can only use it with 110-120 V. But if you buy a voltage converter, you'll be able to use it with 220 V.

It just so happens that I still have the carton! On the Carton it reads "120V 60Hz 1460W. It has a 3 prong grounded plug. IT IS NOT 220V.By the way, I LOVE IT! I had a Keuruig which I just gave away. I also have a Nespresso which I love also, but just for espresso and STRONG coffee. If you want a unit for coffee, just coffee, with many choices of type and ground, I would recommend the Nespresso. If you like all of the flavored drinks like Choccoccino, Machinatto, Flavord Cappuccino, buy the Nescafe.

No, it is not possible to use this unit on a 220 volt system. It is rated at 120 volt only. Do not attempt to use an "adapter" to plug into a 220 volt outlet because you will instantly fry the coffeemaker.

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.

Hi Omar, I am using my machine here in the US (CA) at 110V. The machine works splendid and I am enjoying my espresso's and cappuccino's every day. Best regards, Frans V

There are big differences in the machines. The Keurig is essentially a *coffee* machine. It makes a standard cup of coffee. Yes, it can do flavors, and there are dozens and dozens of different varieties, but it is pretty much limited to straight coffee. (There's a hot cocoa K-cup, but it's made by Green Mountain. You know how famous Green Mountain is for their hot cocoa? They're not. There's a reason.) With that much variety, you're just about assured of finding a coffee to your taste. The brewing cycle is optimized for straight coffee (though there is some flexibility there). Temperature is sometimes an issue; some people find the coffee not quite hot enough. The Tassimo, on the other hand, has far fewer varieties of coffee, but a much greater range of beverage TYPES. It makes latte, cappuccino (regular or skinny), espresso, chai tea lattes, hot chocolate, black and green teas. It makes a nice three-level latte macchiato. The temperature of the finished product is higher, and it has Starbucks pods that taste very much like the real thing. But in general, it probably does not do straight coffee quite as well as a Keurig, and there are certainly many fewer bean types, roast types, and flavors for the Tassimo. We finally decided on a Tassimo, and we love it. And that's something you'll generally find to be true no matter what you buy. It's been our experience that unless you're a coffee connoisseur (in which case, neither machine beats the more labor-intensive brewing methods), you will probably be happy with either machine.

Hello - my specimen of this converter was out of order - seller returned me back a money - so I have no experience with this one - at this moment I've bought another converter (but not typical electronic, It's bigger and more expensive electronic converter which contains heavy transformer). If You have coffe maker (about 2000W) You can try Conair TS2000 but maybe buying expensiver one will be better idea. Regards from Poland to Argentina :-)

Hello, I do not recommend buying that coffee machine at all, mine burnt out after 2 months of careful use. But if you still decide to make the purchase, make sure they send it to you with the right plug (or you get an outlet adapter), and compatible with the power in UK (220 V) versus 110V in USA ( a transformer/adapter will do the job). Good luck!

NO is not working at 220.Secondly I do advise you to stay away from this model (I returned after a week leaking all over) If you relay want an excellent coffee machine go with SAECO VIENNA Plus Little more money but you will be very happy. Ask for one with dual voltage or just for 220V when you place an order. Sincerely Lucian
