It's not just the voltage / amperage. Even if you buy a really expensive over-under that plugs into a 220 the lack of an output vent slows down drying dramatically.

Dryers are only vented in the United States. Most of the world uses condenser dryers that don't require venting. They also use less energy.

They also take significantly longer to dry your clothes.
