A:AnswerI ordered my new Kitchen Aid mixer online. It was very easy, click, click, click, and it was on the way, with FREE shipping.
Best Buy really lived up to their name, the price was even better then buying factory direct.
A:AnswerHi Jolly, The 120 volt (U.S.) appliances are not compatible with 220/240 volt requirements of other countries (as well as vice versa).
What many consumers are not aware of is the potential danger that differences in cycles/second can create. Where in the United States electricity is delivered at 60 Hertz (Hz), most other countries deliver the electricity at 50 Hz. Running 60 Hz appliances in a 50 Hz environment forces the motor in your appliance to run at a slower speed, and can potentially cause immediate motor or operational failure. Not only is this failure not covered by any manufacturer's warranty, but has been known to result in electrical shortages and/or fires.
Additionally, KitchenAid does not recommend the use of a transformer for any KitchenAid countertop appliance. Doing so could cause damage to your appliance or the home electrical system, as noted above.
A:AnswerMine is created for use in the US. If you have a US type model then no it may not be used without an adapter. Please consider contacting support or a qualified electrician in your new location.
A:AnswerHi Frankmaui, Any KitchenAid Small Appliance purchased in the United States is manufactured to operate on 120volts, 60hertz. KitchenAid does not recommend the use of a transformer for any KitchenAid countertop appliance. Doing so could cause damage to the consumer’s appliance or the home electrical system.
A:AnswerHi Emma, KitchenAid offers many great attachments for the stand mixer. However, we do not recommend using any other manufacturer's attachments.
