It has saved me from burning up my mochi maker (a 100V unit) Review: Works Perfectly - The step down transformer appears to be well made with a most user friendly design... plug the grounded power conductor into your 120 V outlet and then plug your 100 V maximum 2000 Watt device (in our case a Tiger 900 100 V 900 Watt mochi maker) into either of the two grounded power out recepticals, push the power on button on the top of the attractive device and you’re all set.

I read that I may need double the recommended 900w on the rice cooker?** A: This converter allows maximum 1600W. I'm using this for a digital controlled toaster oven (100V, max 1350W) for a while and there has been no issue. Electrical devices such as motors require more power than steady-state power consumption because of the large current flow at startup. Rice cookers are heaters, so I don't think you need to worry about this issue. **Q: Do you make one with a higher wattage capacity? My Japanese rice cooker uses 1850W.** A: We have a plan to manufacture converters with higher wattage capacity that use Japan appliances in US or CA. But it need time. R&D and test and test and test... :) There also have some other brands of converters on Amazon. Hope that would meet your need and help you enjoy your life with the rice cooker in US. Any other questions about step up/down converters please feel free to contact us. We will get back to you asap. Thanks for your trust! **Q: Just to be 100% clear, umisound, the highest operating temperature is 105 celsius? or 105 fahrenheit?** A: 105 celsius. Kindly be noted that keep away from it if you feel hot. For continuous use over 2 hours, the max power 900W is recommended. **Q: what are the safe operating temperatures for the 1800W model?** A: 105 degree. Recommend using the 1800W step down voltage 120v to 100v converter with Japanese appliance which has rated power below 1500W. If you need to use the voltage converter continuously over 2 hours, the power consumption of appliance should be less than 900W. And do not touch the shell if you find it is hot. Any questions with our UMI power converter please feel free to contact us. Thank you for the trust and support! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works great *by R***L on April 2, 2026* Works great; I’ve only used it a couple of times but haven’t had any trouble with it. It has saved me from burning up my mochi maker (a 100V unit) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Perfectly *by D***S on January 9, 2021* The step down transformer appears to be well made with a most user friendly design... plug the grounded power conductor into your 120 V outlet and then plug your 100 V maximum 2000 Watt device (in our case a Tiger 900 100 V 900 Watt mochi maker) into either of the two grounded power out recepticals, push the power on button on the top of the attractive device and you’re all set.

Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally a step-down converter that's also easy on the eyes *by P***R on November 13, 2019* If you've bought power-hungry electronics equipment in Japan and you're worried about our US voltage causing damage over time (you should be!), the UMI 120V to 100V Converter may be your best bet. I've lived in Japan and Europe for many years and have used many converters (220V, 110V, 100V), but most of them sported a bulky, ugly, industrial design or were slim-lined solutions that couldn't handle higher wattage appliances. I've used the 120V to 100V step-down model for a few weeks for a Japan-made Tiger "donabe" rice cooker with a 1,000 watt rating and have been operating it without issue twice a week or more. The UMI Converter looks good -- almost like a small, slim desktop PC, and has a clearly labeled input and output outlet. I have it permanently situated behind my rice cooker along the backsplash of my kitchen and it blends in nicely. It's easy to turn off when not in use and has clear read-outs for voltage and wattage on the front. It's not cheap In case you're confused, even though most US appliances are rated for 110V, if you measure the voltage output of your outlets you may actually encounter 120V and 125V current. Since my rice cooker is designed for sale in Japan only and has electronic logic modules/timers/displays and speech output, it probably doesn't take kindly to voltage fluctuations. With 1,600 Watt capacity, it can handle my 1,000 Watt cooker without problems and guarantee a long lifespan. I'll report back in in case the converter bows out prematurely, but so far, it's exactly what I was looking for. ## Frequently Bought Together - 120V to 100V Voltage Converter 1600watts Step Down toroidal Voltage Converter for Japan appliances Used in US［CE, CQC Certified］ - Panasonic SD-MDX4-K [Home Bakery Bistro 1 loaf type black] AC100V Japanese Language ONLY Shipped from Japan 2021 Released --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/99548412-120v-to-100v-1600w-step-down-voltage-converter-for-japan](https://www.desertcart.us/products/99548412-120v-to-100v-1600w-step-down-voltage-converter-for-japan) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
