Not necessarily. As I remember the last washing machine I had in England had two water connections, one for hot water and one for cold. In French flats there is only a single water connection, so a British machine wouldn't work. Sell the British machine before you leave and buy a new one in France; white goods are really cheap over here. Check the site below for French cheapest prices. |

No: It will probably spin the wrong way ;-)
However you can try with an adapter (current in France is 220V / 50 hz / European plug), but beware of the maximum power that the adapter can support compared the the machine's peak power.
Also, given the price of a washing machine, and the weight of it, it is probably not worth it to transport it. |

You should be able to as in France, we use 220V and in England, 210. You just need to buy an adaptor (very cheap) or have the plug changed (but I guess it's cheaper to use an adaptor).
I've never had a problem with any of my electrical equipments, although I have to admit they were small ones. |

With the proper electrical converters, you can use it anywhere. |

Yes, of course you can but you must use an adptator for the electrical plug ...
Have a nice day,

You can use a Swiss washing machine as well.
Most electrical appliances sold in Europe have to work in the 220 - 240 volt AC range.
Yours will work. BTW : 'White goods' in France are about 20% cheaper here in France than the UK.
It might be cheaper to leave your old machine and buy a new one. |

Sure! you'll just need an adaptor. |

ask Tony Hawkes, sounds like something he would know. He wrote about moving to France, all you need to know is in this book!! |
|

Stef
|
Yes you can. You just need to change the plug...however your TV won't work! You will need to buy a new one in France. |
|

Cutie
 |
No. You'll need an internation kit. And there might be a problem with the electricity. |
|

super answers
|
