...but I should tell you some of the other appliances we brought from the UK overheated! Do always switch the power off at the mains just in case. Saves electricity too.

Our LCD TVs work but the neighbours brought and older analogue TV with them and the sound didn't because theirs only had one country setting.
My husband says that recent flat-screen type TVs work if different country settings are available and plasmas are uite recent so should be OK. He just went into 'set-up' on ours and chose Cyprus and off they went. Satellite boxes and DVDs are usually OK too

Hi there. Our steam cleaner gave up the ghost completely and a DVD player (if I remember correctly) would overheat. Our tv gets very hot if you keep it on standby but it works fine.
