Do you need an outlet adapter to operate this in the US ?

No, this comes ready to use. I have not had any problem with playing either UK or US dvd's. There are no adjustments needed and it works just great. Best purchase I've made in a long while.

If your player was acquired in the UK the simple answer is yes. BUT! . . . The power supply is likely AC 230V-240V, 50Hz . . . whereas in the US and Canada power is AC 110V - 117V, 60Hz . . . therefore your player will not operate properly without a transformer to get the correct voltage and cycling.

You do not. However, there are several DVDs made for the US that this player will not play (seemed like about 30%-40% the movies I rented/owned would not play.

No, this is made to be used in the US. It has a standard US cord and works in the US outlets. It plays all the different region DVDs, including region 1 (US and Canada).

It has a standard US plug on the external power supply you would need an adapter or different power supply.

Physically you can plug the adapter into a 3 pole North American outlet. Of course, you will NOT have ground connection and protection.

I'm not sure - I use a normal household outlet.You will need an (american style) 3-prong outlet.

It sounds like you will NOT need a transformer but just a plug adapter. The power supply of your item is capable of any input voltage from 100v to 230v, and 50 or 60Hz. The US uses 120v and 60Hz so it will work there. The only consideration now is if you have the right plug shape to plug into US wall sockets. I have moved between Canada/US [120v/60Hz] and Europe and Australia [230v/50Hz], so I have some experience with this. All of my electronics that are marked this way worked in these locations (TVs, laptops, most modern chargers). So you don't need an active transformer like this, you just need a simple physical plug adapter like this: http://www.amazon.com/Ceptics-Grounded-Universal-Plug-Adapter/dp/B0080SE6H2/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1413903131&sr=8-13&keywords=ceptics

i don't know for sure. it seems like a standard US outlet. i'd check the phillips site.

I'm assuming no because I wasn't given any additional power connections - But I have seen places(amazon included) where you can buy a 220v adapter if you need to have one. Not that expensive.

No, but you need an adapter for whatever country you are visiting outside of USA.

You'll need an adapter. See if its for sale on a UK or other European web site. Probably cheaper to get an adapter that you can use with all of your U.S. appliances.

Yes! Just used mine overseas just fine. Just needed an adaptor for the plug.
2181815
No, it comes hardwired with a standard US outlet. I'm not very pleased with this unit, and wouldn't recommend it anyway.
569659
No. It has the adaptor the US. But you can get the adaptor for the UK separately.

We do but it will not work with the outlet you have in China. You can use if you have a transformer for the electrical ouTlet. Thanks

I haven't been able to use it because it is not equipped for US electrical outlet.

Regular U.S. outlet, yes. Doesn't even have third (grounding) prong. Mine works like a charm, though it had a long break through the winter months.

Yes you need a specific adapter for the uk as they are shipped with us ones there was an instruction leaflet with ours advising not to use a travel adapter as this would not work and cause damage you need to find the right type of ac adapter that gives a regulated current and the voltage and current are in the box

I would assume that you couldn't. It has the standard two prong plug in for U.S. outlets.
