I wonder if anyone in the US has converted their house to European appliances. The voltage is close enough, converting an entire house over to using 240V on all circuits is a trivial change, the hard part would be swapping all the plugs for European ones. And the frequency is probably the biggest part, but I'm unsure how big a difference 50Hz vs 60Hz makes with modern appliances.

I just find the thought kind of amusing. In a country this size I'm betting at least one person has done it. People are nuts.
