I found the Power Bright VC2000w Voltage Transformer to be just what I needed. We moved from the Philippines and had several appliances that needed 220 volt power in the United States. While the transformer is fairly large and a bit heavy, it is not noisey. I have had no problem with it using it every morning for boiling hot water with my Korean water heater which boils water in less than 1 minute. The product was reasonably priced and we are happy with it.

It is 2000W and my device is using 1000W (load). The transformer is cold after using for about 1 hours (good sign). I do not notice any bad part of it, it works what it should be. It has hum noise some times, overall it is good. Daily use, it has been using for more than two month long, no problem.Best Deals for Power Bright VC2000W Voltage Transformer 2000 Watt Step Up/Down
I live in Germany and got this to use some of my US appliances like my Keurig coffee maker and blender ... it works great and very quiet ... there are just a few downsides: it's very big, very industrial looking and only can support 1 US or European plug at a time. That said, if you are looking for something to make US or European appliances work with 110 or 220, this is it!Honest reviews on Power Bright VC2000W Voltage Transformer 2000 Watt Step Up/Down
I purchased this to use along with my USA bought LED TV back home in India where the voltage level is 240.Pros: Has multiple input selections, and 2 output levels ( 220 and 110), so this is a very generic converter
USB charging works
RMS voltage (as measured by a multimeter) is pretty close to what it should be.
Cons: There is a big banging sound when the unit is energized, guess its normal with any transformer based converters
Somewhere the earthing is not correct. if you put a tester into the earth, it glows.This shows that somewhere there is current leakage. I checked the ground to output phase voltage, that is zero whereas my mains ground to phase voltage is nearly equal to the neutral to phase voltage.
if you connect your sensitive electronics items like LED TV or home theater receiver with improper earthing, it will be damaged very soon.
I bought 3 pieces of this type with different wattages, and all of these have the same problem. so I believe this is not a individual unit problem.
Verdict: if you are buying this for appliances like mixer grinder or heater, you can still use it, but not for sensitive and costly electronics.
On a side note, I bought 1 powerbright and 2 goldsource units, but they look very similar in construction/user manuals/packaging etc. I guess its the same unit but branded differently.

We had 2 transformers, but were looking for a higher wattage one for the kitchen here in Europe for our numerous American appliances. We went with this one and were amazed. It is the highest wattage and yet the QUIETEST of the 3. We couldn't ask for more. Honestly.Highly recommended.
