Please, does “precision cooker” work with 220 V in Italy? Thank you

Vito,
Italian voltage is defined as 230 volts… (at 50 Hz)
UK voltage is described as 240 volts, but it is in fact a variable 220 - 240 voltage range
Your voltage is similar in order to account for electricity transmission variables, congratulations for being wary & checking.
If you bought a UK plug 220-240v anova you would just need a plug adapter (our uk plugs having 3 pins, differ to a lot of countries.
France operates on the same 230 volts at 50 Hz also, so all I need with my UK Anova is a plug adaptor & it works just fine (yes, I take it abroad with me on holiday to cook with, …you should too 😉
See wikipedia if you wish to draw comparisons, however if you buy what Anova term a european model then take it elsewhere within europe apart from needing a travel adaptor capable of the wattage of the unit, you should be fine.

(For industrial machinery, see industrial and multiphase power plugs and sockets.) Some countries have more than one voltage available. For example, in North America, a unique split-phase system is used to supply to most premises that works by...
