Would it be suitable for a laptop?
When you say appliances what do you mean exactly?

A laptop power cord usually can handle power ranges of 110-240 Volts - this means all you need is to adapt the plug to either US - UK - Euro etc. The voltage is listed on the power adapter (the rectangular box) you need to make sure that it is compatible with 110-120 volts for US

An appliance is different. If the power supply does not support the voltage then you need a step down or step up Transformer
