do oz electrical goods work in the uk
 
Hi All

Please could anyone confirm if plasma tvs, microwave music systems purchased in western australia will work in the uk and if anyone has
shipped these type of items and encountered any problems.

Thank you any replies would be appreciated.:p

Nu Shooz just took back an LG plasma TV and she posted saying it worked perfectly well on her return. I have read that you just need to check with the manufacturerer that your model is OK, but most are.
I have taken back several smaller electrical items such as hairdryers, hair straighteners and all work well. We are leaving here on Sunday and shipping back quite a few smaller items like our microwave and blender. All we need to do is change the plugs

Our Aus t.v works no problem. We just connect it through Sky.

Everything else, microwave, kettles etc all work fine too :thumbup:

Ours all worked fine too.

And that first cup of tea from that jetsetting kettle is probably the best cup you'll ever have.......SWEET!;)
