The rental units in Germany have tremendously improved. Newer homes are much larger
with modern amenities, all have built in kitchens; additionally, single homes are more
common now than in previous years. The power supply is 220 volt and 50 cycles
opposed to 110 volts and 60 cycles. Unless your small appliances are dual voltage you
will need power transformers. Furnishings Management Office (FMO) will issue wardrobes, kitchen
storage cabinets, microwaves and major appliances (stove, refrigerator, clothes washer
and dryer). They will also provide a limited number of transformers. You may want to
purchase additional transformers from AAFES, Thrift Shops, or departing service
members through Ramstein Yard Sales. FMO Einsiedlerhof Building 720
