Hello.

I have been scouting the net for La Valentina which I can order to Iceland. I only find online stores with La Valentina in the US which don't sell outside the country. Also US has different Voltage than in Europe (we use 220). Can it be that the machine is hard to find in Europe or does it have another name here and that's the reason that I can't find it?

Any help would be very appreciated.

Regards,
Johann

It's known as Junior/Junior Plus/Junior Extra and manufactured by BFC. Here's a link to its product page. Grimac Royal Falcon Corp is a US importer based in New York. I searched on "BFC Junior Plus" and saw many matches on European websites.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I also search "BFC Junior Plus" and found some sites in Europe which sell the machine. One store in Sweden seems to ship to Iceland so the "problem" seems to be solved. Thank you very much.

I'm sorry for the cross-posting, I should have read the instructions more thoroughly before posting.

Hi;

Would you please let me know from where in Sweden, I can buy spare parts for my Valentina?
I live in Denmark, so it might be easier for me to buy spare parts for my Valentina from Sweden, than US.

Thanks
