I am moving to Japan and was wondering if you know if the "washing machine and dryer"
I bought last year will work in Japan?
It is large enough to wash Comforter.
Japanese houses are spacious and have solers, so we don't have to worry about taking up space or electricity costs.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I wonder if he wants to bring anything home with him since he is an expatriate.
I guess a hair dryer would work if it doesn't need an exhaust port ?
I don't know about voltage or anything. LOL.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

The Occupation Forces in Japan are using it.
It is expensive to rewire the dryer to 220V and the washing machine to 110V 60W in Japan.
We recommend a coin-operated laundry.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

You are moving to a new residence in Japan, and you have a place to set up a fairly large washer/dryer that you will bring back with you even if you have to send it separately.
If so, the only thing you need to worry about is getting electricity, gas, and water. The gas and water are just new piping and can be left to the contractor. The remaining "electricity" is only 10% of the voltage supplied to Japanese homes, which is 100V, whereas the voltage of home appliances here is 110V/220V, but the electric appliances will not work properly due to this difference.
Either way, the voltage needs to be boosted and this cannot be done by amateurs. In some cases, the wiring may have to be done from a utility pole on the street outside. Aside from the cost concerns, the installation itself will be no problem. All in all, ask your friends who live in Japanese houses.
If you are moving to a residential complex in Japan, the above installation may not be possible from the beginning.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Assuming that it is the latest equipment
I don't understand why you are asking this question as it is so obvious, but it is possible to use it although it is subject to installation work on the house sideThere are many people who bring it home with them
But they don't turn off all the lights while they are doing laundry
The installation cost will be huge depending on the power consumption of the equipment they bring back.The construction cost will be huge depending on the power consumption of the equipment you bring back, so you have to check the Japanese side of the house.
By the way, # 6 above mentioned
> The voltage supplied to Japanese houses is only 10% of 100V, while it runs on 110V/220V, but electric devices do not run properly due to this difference.
when are you talking about? ? nowadays, the equipment is equipped with an inverter, so a difference of 10% or so is fine. Ignore the above opinion.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

> Today's devices have inverters, so a difference of about 10% is fine
inverter noun [electrical] inverter < a device that converts DC to AC >
An inverter is a device that converts DC12V power from automobiles and other ( converting ) 100V/120V AC inverts for household usedevice or circuit.
There was a discussion in another topic about whether a 100V powered "Electric Rice Cooker" brought from Japan could be used here in the U.S. The current electric rice cookers do not directly run 100V/120V AC to the heating coil, but rectify AC to DC and then run it through a stabilizing circuit before being converted to IH. The current electric kettle does not even shake when the input AC voltage fluctuates greatly.
On the other hand, the electric circuits of large white home appliances such as washing machines ・ dryers ・ and refrigerators discussed here use large amounts of electric power for motors, pumps, electric heating elements, etc. Therefore, if a circuit to control large currents with 100V ~ 120V AC is built in, the selling price will go up dramatically, which is a realistic possibility. Therefore, it is not realistic to incorporate a circuit to control large currents without changing the 100V120V AC voltage. Therefore, in the case of this topic, if you use 120VAC input appliances with 100VAC in Japan, there is a possibility that they will not work properly. Well, you can try it one way or the other.

For the time being, you can try to connect them as they are without any modifications, and if they cause any problems, you can take countermeasures.
Since it is connected to the one with lower voltage, it is not likely to generate heat from the circuit or catch fire.
You might say that the dryer is not fully dry after some time. If that's the case, just try turning it a little more.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Considering the cost and hassle of sending it to Japan, it would be better to sell it here before returning home and use the money to buy a new one in Japan.

If you retire now and return to Japan, you can expect a considerable increase in assets due to the effect of the weak yen.
Moreover, this is a country with deflation, which is very rare in the world, so it might be a good idea.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
