Transformer

After my mixer and immersion blender started smoking when we plugged it in with everything we thought we needed, Jeff decided that we needed something heavy duty.  Especially if we wanted to use our Keurig coffee maker.  We had not plugged it in due to fear and we were almost ready just to ship it back to the U.S.  Then, Jeff saw on-line that you can buy heavy duty transformers, so we had one shipped.  It arrived and now we get to use our many coffee pods that we brought.  It's rather huge, but I don't mind, especially since my mixer is fully functional once again!
