Voltage question

Would a component from Japan that is rated 100 volts be safe to use here on 110-120 volts, without some type of transformer or the like? TIA Mike

So far Ive been told: 1. Need a transformer2. Its fine.3. Dont even plug it in.Appreciate your thoughts. If I do pursue this I would probably look into stepping down the voltage. Where is a good place to look for one? Thanks again.
