Works well so far

Set up was very straightforward and simple. Battery was charged enough to start electronically as delivered and started right up. I don't have a sound meter but after reading how quiet this unit was to be, I felt that it ran a bit noisier than I had expected but certainly acceptable.

So quiet and perfect for travel trailer

Me and my wife recently purchased a travel trailer. When looking for a quiet generator for when in use for a park we found that many brands go up to 3,000 watts and then jump to much larger units and they are heavy. Then we came across this unit. The wattage is perfect as we do not need to run 2 smaller ones in parallel. I have now ran this unit several hours and love how it tells me the output as items come on and stay on. Our trailer with everything running comes in at 3600 watts and this unit does it without a issue and stays quiet. I love that I don’t have to run 2 generators to do this. The unit itself is very nice. Not very heavy and is well made. We have had no issues and don’t see why we would. Also we love the remote to start the generator from inside the camper. Very pleased and recommend this generator to everyone. Have had many people using 2 generators ask questions about this model as it is so simple and very quiet. Great model. Very happy

Doesn't get an easier than this

Out of the box it took less than 10 mins before we were up and running. Very manageable for one person and so quiet compared to my last generator - such an improvement! Do yourself a favor and add the oil slowly and in phases. My generator didn't quite take the full quart. I plan to use this for my camper and as a partial home back up generator. So far so good!

Great generator almost impossible to change oil

Had to get a bigger generator for my new travel trailer to handle bigger A/C unit. Runs great. Ran it for the first time to break it in. Just finished the oil change and it’s almost impossible to do. The drain screw does not line up with the access hole. A normal size male hands will have a hard time lining up and starting the threading of the screw plug. This is a major design flaw.

GREAT BUY

Straight out of the box, added oil, put in gas, connected battery. Hit the start button and it fired right up. Hooked it up to a variable load, my camper with AC set to turn on and off, it ran over 5 hours on one gallon of gas. Very quiet frome 100 feet away you can't hear it run. Also love the self stowing handle.

Justo lo que necesitaba

Ayer compre este generador inverter y rapido lo probe y realmente me encendio toda la casa! Lo mejor de todo es que lo hizo en el modo eco y el ruido era tan poco que creo q fue la mejor inversion! Me prendio demas de todo una nevera y un freezer pequeño y no llego ni al 20% de consumo energético!

Suggestions

Worked fine right out of the box. My biggest complaint would be to relocate the carrying handles further to the sides of the generator if possible. Being a bit aged the gen isn't the lightest for two to carry. Handles closer to the edges would make it easier. Also there isn't alot of black top/concrete where we use the generator making the small wheels basically drags in softer terrain. Bigger wheels would help drastically.

Great Manual and easy to operate

I waited until I used this generator to write this review. Getting the generator operational was very straight forward as the instructions in the owners manual are well written and easy to follow. We used the generator to run the air conditioner on our RV this past weekend. The generator noise was not a factor as we slept in the RV. The remote start is a great feature. We are satisfied customers.

Great generator

Just bought this generator, plan on using this with our 30ft fifth wheel RV. Like all of the features. Started right up after adding oil and fuel out of the box. Arrived in perfect condition. The one draw back is the remote start. Says should work from 99 feet away. It won't work enless I'm standing with-in 15ft of the generator. I'm going to re-pair the remote to generator as directions in book say to do to see if that solves the problem.

Great features

We are very happy with our purchase. It is much quieter than our previous generator. Extra features are remote start and electric start, so much easier than pulling the handle to start, which is no problem for my husband. Has a battery charger included and a pour funnel for the oil, they seem to have thought of all the conveniences to make the operation easy.
