How to use Indian Mixer Grinder in USA 110 Volts 60Hz.
For an Indian Mixer grinder to work in USA 110 volts will require a step-up transformer to convert the US 110volts current to Indian 220-240 volts. Since the more powerful mixer grinders in India are the 750 Watts type, like the Preethi Blue leaf range, it is better to get a step up transformer with a slightly higher rating, say a minimum of 1000 watts range like this 110V to 220V, capacity 1000 Watts, step-up (or down) transformer from Amazon.com for about $51 or this cheaper model 750 watts step-up transformer, 110 Volts to 220 Volts, from Amazon for about $39-.
The Electric Frequency in the US is 60 Hz or Cycles per second instead of the 50Hz in India. So the Indian mixer grinder in USA will run at a higher speed. The Indian mixer grinders are designed for rough and tough working conditions in India and not to fail in the frequent Voltage Fluctuations in India. To compensate for this 20% increase in speed when Indian Mixer and grinders work in USA, make sure you do not run this Indian Electrical 220V 50Hz appliances at full speed in the USA with 60 cycle electricity. Indian Electrical appliances are built sturdy for withstand unreliable Indian electric voltages and will not easily get damaged in USA, especially since all top of the range Indian Mixer and grinders have built-in overload protection.

You can get your mixer at best price, better than Amazon, eBay or Walmart. For me East West USA Store turned out great place to Indian Kitchen Appliances.
