Ah. I thought (most) small kitchen appliances in the USA run off 110v
(or thereabouts) - guess I was wrong. Do you use/need the 240v outlet
for anything?

We have 6 outlets in our kitchen - but two of them are situated in quite
an awkward (for me) spot. So I have an extension 'block' plugged in
that gets used sometimes - e.g. for the blender or the juicer (in a
more accessible spot). The tea kettle and our small toaster are
*always* plugged in. <g>
