I really don't know - but I sure would like to own one of these model
AR5 varimixers in the smallest (5 liter) size:

They're made in Denmark and look like they're built for small
commercial or institutional kitchens. The fact that they're "Bears"
is also a plus.

I just can't seem to find out if they're sold in the U.S.

Even if they're only available for 220v, I already have a European-
style 220v outlet in my kitchen to use with some appliances which my
wife had when she lived in Switzerland. Of course, it is 60Hz rather
than the 50Hz common in the UK and Europe.

Cheers,
The Old Bear
