There is no real advantage to the 220-240 other than wire size for the same amount of wattage/amps.
I agree entirely. 220V is OK with heavy equipment, a welder for instance, but 110 V is enough for working in a kitchen. If you lay hands on a live 110V wire you will (usually) be able to let it loose, it won't be that easy with 220V. Safety first !
