Can KitchenAid 5-Speed Blender with Glass Blender Jar also be used with 240V 50 Hz in Europe?

Sorry about the delay. I deleted all amazon email thinking it was all junk.Didn't see this until I was deleting stuff from my phone. I dont' think it will work on 240. There is no switch to allow changing between 120 and 240v.

I got a Kitchenaid machine back in 2001 and bought a power converter. It is working ever since, no prob. But i have to admit, the converter did cost around $75.. So you have to decide, whether it is worth it. Since i have it already, it would make sense buying this blender here, and save, because they cost around $300 and more here in germany.

You can with a very strong adapter/converter. Those are quite expensive though and it may be more worth it to just buy one in EU. I lived both in EU and USA---the motors burn out quickly with this much power when using a adapter/converter. Hope that helps!

I would not suggest it. I used an adapter that was suitable and the motor burnt out.

I love this blender. It is very reliable. Mine came with a standard "american" 120 volt plug.

These dealers in Malaysia are authorized to sell 240/240 volt KitchenAid mixers:http://international.kitchenaid.com/dealer_supplier/

yes...120/240, however it is only 1 speed on 240...fast. You may need plug adapter in another country, or voltage transformer, generaly furnished by hotel.

It is 110 but you can buy KitchenAid toasters in 220-240V from other places on-line like ebay, I'm not sure if they have this exact model but they do offer it in the Artisian style.

I think the European units are about $1000. If you need one for Europe, I would check out the Enpee Blender on youtube. It looks to me like a VM knock off from India at half the price. There are at least 60 reviews on Amazon UK and people love it. You can't buy it in the USA but who would want to when the VM costs the same here. I think they only make it is the European voltage anyway.

If you want to use an US mixer outside of the USA, you will need a transformer which will increase the 110V to 220V. Concerning the hz, it works with 50 or 60, this is absolutely not an issue.

This blender is made for the US Market so it is 110Volt. If you are in the States all appliances are 110, If you are in the EU 220.

Yes,it can be used for a Mixer/blender which has 550watts on it.I am using it for a 600watts Mixer/blender,and it is doing a great job.

I guess the problem is not just the voltage conversion (from 220v to 110v), it is the frequency that cannot be converted from 50Hz in Europe to 60Hz (what the trimmer needs).

Yes. We are using this in India. Usually, 1.5 times the watts will be safe because of the initial load it needs during the start of the blender and you are choosing the right one.

You will need to get the KitchenAid Artisan Mixer 5KSM150PSE. This mixer will run on 220V. These are made for the overseas market. I hope this information helps.

Sorry, I do not know. Mine is a simple 14 speed blender and it works well with it.

If your power specs are 240V 50Hz, you will need a power transformer for it to work.

I can use all of my European 220V items. It is important that the power of the item is lower than the power of the power converter, as it is in your case. However, the U.S. power system works with a frequency of 60 Hz. When you are in a country that works with 50 Hz, I would not recommend to bring a washer. They usually need the frequency that they are made for. The converter does not convert the frequency.

I am not sure. you would need to check your electric voltages in your country. I am not an expert at this stuff and do not want to ruin the mixer! I suggest you contact a authority on voltage and eletricticity . Let them know what you are seeking to purchase and then ask them the same question you just asked me. sorry that I could not be more of a help. Good-Luck

Yes you can use this one. Remember to read the Watt on your foood blender as this one could be to big. You can get it as 500 ^ 750 Watt also. You will also need to ask for a cord with European plug.
