Which Japanese rice cookers work in Spain?

Reasons:

• Different plug shape; you need a plug adapter (41)
• Needs a step-down transformer (coil type, 230V to 100V, rice cooker wattage ÷ 0.8) (19)Why: Choose a coil-type step-down transformer with 100V output, not 110V. Electronic travel converters marked "for heating appliances only" cannot be used with electronic rice cookers that have an LCD panel. Rate it at least the cooker's wattage ÷ 0.8; 2,000W or more with pure copper windings is recommended, and transformer makers are more conservative for heating appliances (at least 3 times the power consumption). Connect only one appliance per transformer. A 2,000W transformer weighs about 8–10kg and costs a few hundred yuan in mainland China. Manufacturers do not support use outside Japan, and there is no warranty; plugging the cooker straight into a 200–240V outlet will burn it out.
• Local mains is 230–240V, slightly above the rated voltage (220V or 220–230V). Check the manual before long-term use (8)Why: We found no manufacturer statement on using this model at 230–240V, so we rate it neither "works as is" nor "will not work". Check the manual and the rating label before use, and ask the manufacturer or service centre if unsure. Models the manufacturer limits to their rated voltage are rated "will not work".

Reasons:

• The manufacturer says to use it only at its rated voltage; the local voltage differs, so it will not work as is (1)Why: The manufacturer's manual or website states the conditions of use (e.g. "For 220 V AC only", "for use in mainland China only"); see the specification sources on the product page. Choose a model whose rated range covers your local voltage.
