Tuft the World’s AK-I, AK-II, and AK-III tufting machines come with an AC/DC adapter, which converts up to 240 volts of AC (alternating current) power to 30 volts DC (direct current) power. Adapters have a Type A plug compatible with household electrical sockets in the U.S. and several other countries.
Most international customers will need to purchase a universal plug adapter to use in combination with the AC/DC adapter we provide.
KRD-I tufting machines are available in 110 volt or 240 volt models. We currently only sell 110 volt models.
International customers will need to purchase a power converter to change 110v to 220/240v. Tuft the World is not responsible for electrical problems that may arise from incompatible usage.
