Awesome duel fuel inverter generator!

I purchased this for use with our RV and emergency home backup. So far it's been good, worked right out of the box without any issues. Ive only ran it on gas but I do appreciate the fact I can use propane. The fuel tank is fairly large for the size of the generator which will help it run longer without refueling. For the price I got it I can't complain since others in price range can not compare as I got this on sale.

Generator of my dreams

I've literally dreamt about this generator before ordering it when camping. It is so nice to hook it up and not have to leave the trailer to go out into the cold and wet Oregon mornings and night to start it. Packed with features and the remote start and dual fuel are the selling points I'm stoked on. Plenty of power. I also love the wheels and handles I didn't know it had until I unboxed it.

Excellent Features

I just finished the recommended 5 hour break in and love this generator so far. I sold my Honda EU2000i as it would not power my RV's AC unit. This generator is not much louder, has over twice the power, remote start, and dual fuel. Amazing that the are both the same price.

So many great features!

We wanted a generator that was quiet, large enough to power our travel trailer while protecting its electronics, easily portable and able to run on LP so that we wouldn't have to carry gas cans. This generator has all that and more! We especially appreciate the remote so that we can easily start and stop it if we only need to use it for a few minutes.

Great little generator

I use a generator only a few times a year. So many times I have seen people having trouble starting their generator after sitting for long time due to usually carburetor issue. I am glad that this one uses propane. Now I don't have to worry about generator not starting from carburetor issue. It also is battery operated and makes it easier to start, and it also has remote controller. It is quiet and comes with two USB chargers. It is very user friendly. Well made machine! I am going to take it to my camping trip, and will be using it during hurricane season. Now I can bring all my electric tools on my trip. Oh, by the way I had hard time locating serial number, It was not on the generator. I found it on a sticker stuck on the front page of user's manual. It doesn't say it is serial number, but I just guessed then what other number would it be? I used this number to register and website took it.

So far so good!

Just delivered today. Added oil, connected battery, hooked up propane tank and it started up right away. Tested a 950W Microwave oven that drew 25% of rated propane load and all was good. Small, quiet, and transports well with wheels and handles. Oil compartment a bit too small for my taste but no problems to access.

Great features & well designed

I replaced my 15yr old modified-sine wave generator with this one. It is much quieter, more efficient, and the duel fuel source means less trips to the gas station during extended outages. The auto start is nice to have with the pull start as a backup.

Great Features for the Money

I have only owned this generator for a few days, but have been researching this unit and competitors for some time. The dual-fuel capability is a real plus for me, as I plan to use this to run a travel trailer, and we always have propane on board. Initial setup was pretty painless, and it starts very easily now that we've got it running the first time. The motor runs very quietly, and the output easily powers the A/C and other accessories in my camper. The plastic trim around the control panel seems to have been damaged in shipping, but it doesn't affect the operation at all, and I'm sure that this product will see plenty of scrapes and impacts as we use it for many years. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase, and would make the same choice again if given the opportunity.

Great Product

Really happy with this generator. It's super quiet, comes with tool kit, oil funnel, everything but the fuel. It starts right up and the remote works well for start and stop when you're not right beside the unit. I really like the propane as a backup.

Best Bang for you Buck!

Packaged perfect for those rough deliveries and couldn't wait to open it. Followed the directions and connected it to my 25 lb. propane cylinder. Once the air purged from the line it fired right up and my concern was running my 15,000 BTU air conditioner on my RV. Until I get to my Trailer, I ran this unit with an equivalent portable AC unit and it did not disappoint. This unit is built to last and the remote start is extremely convenient.
