I see from previous questions that this dryer works in Germany, which uses C & F plugs, does this have a C or F plug?

It does work in Germany. I used it there 2 weeks ago. It's made for 220v. I did a google search and the same pictures come up for C plugs and F plugs, so I am not sure which one it is. But you can use it in Europe without an adaptor.

Italy for sure it worked fine for me..... We just got back. If you needed a ground like for a hair dryer. Portugal not sure have not been there but it should.

Yes! You will need a European adapter/plug-in, and use the dryer on the lowest wattage setting. I used this on the higher wattage setting and accidentally blew out the power in the villa we had in Italy. Easy to fix but embarrassing.

I think Spain uses the same plug type as Germany: F-type (two round column), that means this Braun 2-flat-piece plug cannot be used there unless u have an adaptor

The dryer is both 110 and 220 volt. You just have to turn a screw. It worked well but has only a low setting at 220v. Regards, Linda

I am not sure but I have had 2 of these blow dryers and the power on both started cutting out within 6 months. It seems to have connection issues.

I've oredered the same dryer twice and to my surprise, the second time I received the dryer with an European plug! It cannot be used in United States since it has a different voltage (220w). I have no idea what made the difference in the order since it doesn't say anything about European usage! It came from Spain, so I never returned it.

I'm not sure what the electrical standards are in Italy. I only used it in France. What I found in France was that though this has two dryer settings (high and low), only the high setting worked when using the dryer there while both settings worked in the US. I'd recommend you research to see if france and Italy have the same standards before purchasing. Hope this helps.

Yes, I have used the dryer in Europe, including Italy, by switching from its U.S. voltage setting to its Europe voltage. You would need a plug adapter, of course.

Yes it does, I think two different types.. I have two of these dryers and they are the best ever!! I keep one in a travel bag so I am always ready to go.

According to Wikipedia, a CEE 7/7 is a plug that works in outlets in both France and Germany. This power strip can accept both French and German plugs, so the answer should be yes. Remember that the wall outlet for this power strip is a USA 3-prong plug. You will need a adapter to plug it into the wall in whichever country you are in.

Mine does. Not sure if other models may not. I hardly ever use the cool shot feature though, so I can't honestly tell you how well it works. I love the dryer all in all though. I have used it daily for 2ish years now.

I would think so. It is a 220 volt dryer with the two pronged European plugs, though those do vary so the adapter might be necessary.

Yes, this hair dryer will work in Italy. It will work in Italian 2 or 3 prong outlets. It's a fantastic dryer and powerful. Don't waste time trying to convert an American dryer. They will work like a gutless wonder.

I'm sorry I don't know. I only know that it did not work for me in Germany it blew my hairdryer, thank goodness I didn't use it to charge my phone. The fuse blew on it and I misplaced the spare, so I didn't use it after that, thank goodness my daughter had another different adapter that worked.

Unfortunately I don't know and I can't test it either as our dryer is a regular US version. My Husband said that it depends how much capacity the dryer needs. He suspected that if it says 2500 W it might not work with 5000W transformer, also if you google it, you will find "recommend using a voltage converter / transformer which has a Wattage that is 2 to 3 times higher than your appliance. " http://www.220-electronics.com/voltage-converter-buying-guide.html Sorry, that I could not help much with your question!
