I purchased a Panasonic Nogami home bakery. I saw information on the internet that transformers are good to buy in the U.S., so I am going to buy one. ? I hear that 3 times the voltage is good, but what about you guys ?
If you know anything about this, please let me know. I would appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you very much.

WAKA, Where did you purchase the home bakery? If you purchased it from an authorized dealer in the U.S., you do not need a transformer. There should be a label on the back or bottom of the product with the product number and specifications. If it says Volt " AC 115/120V Wattage XXX", then you can plug it directly into a wall outlet with the American voltage of 115 ~ 120 volts.

However, if you bought it from a dark vendor or an individual, or if it was sent from Japan, it may still be the Japanese voltage of 100V. Please look at the label above to judge. The Panasonic website in Japan says that the power consumption of the product is 370W, so a transformer that covers 400W-600W should be sufficient. However, please be aware that transformers themselves do not meet U.S. government safety standards for household electrical products, and therefore, all transformers on the market are, strictly speaking, illegal electrical products.

By the way, I brought a Zojirushi rice cooker (2007) and a Panasonic home bakery (2015) from Japan, and they work fine when connected directly to an outlet without a transformer.

If you are buying a transformer, the voltage ( V ) should not be tripled, but the wattage
should be higher than the voltage ( W ) 500W, so a home bakery should be around 1000W. \W By the way, home bakery consumes about W 500W, so you need to buy a 1000W class transformer to avoid burning
.

I hear rice cookers are replaced after 6-10 years.
What do you guys do ? If it works, do you use it forever ??

Thank you all !
I guess it can be used without a transformer !
On the other hand, I wonder if there are any broken ones without a transformer ?.
