Easy Enough for a Woman to Put Together and use

This actually has understandable instructions for ltd. assembly and for starting and usage. Very "woman" friendly. I live in a mountainous area that loses power for week at a time in winter sometimes so this generator with a Generlink allows me to power the whole house rather than to be confined to fire heat and candles because it has large wattage to handle the job. PLUS it has a little remote control to start the unit with from the house. What a plus. I am SO happy. Oh, and a handle to moving this 300 lb unit is a snap whether you are big and strong or not!

Great Portable Generator for the house

I bought this generator primarily in the event of a power failure at the house. It has enough power to run all the things I don't want to be without during a power failure such as the furnace, refrigerator, T.V.'s, lights, modem, router, and computer. I look at it like an insurance policy just in case.

GREAT LITTLE MACHINE

I needed this machine for the next time power goes out to run our well system. I had a plug box installed on the outside of the building which is run into my main breaker box. This generator was very easy to assemble and started right up out of the box. The remote control feature and the included battery charger was a definite selling point for me. All other generators this was an additional cost, It handles what we need very well.

Great machine. Heavy duty and ready to roll!

Very happy with my new generator! It’s a heavy but well made unit. Minor assembly was easy and the wheels make it a breeze to move around. Starts right up and does all that I ask! Plenty of power for the whole house, and I like the option for either gasoline or propane.

Remote start is an excellent feature

I purchased this last week and was delivered on time. packaging was good and all items were in excellent shape: Oil and even the oil funnel. Came with all the necessary tools for assembly. Assembly was quick and easy. I used propane and all hoses were included with the package. Used the remote start and clicked the button from 10 ft from the unit. Started immediately and ran it for about 10 minutes while testing various appliances without a problem.

GREAT FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE

This generator took about 45 minutes to set up. Great easy start, runs equally well on gasoline and propane. More quiet than our old Briggs & Stratton generator. We have been able to run one of our central air units as will as all of the required lights on our 3700 sq ft home, 2 refrigerators, hot water heater a couple of IMac computers, Internet, 2 TVs. Were in Central Florida getting ready for hurricane season. Great purchase. S. Polk

Great features for price

Ordered this generator to use when power outtages happen, which is usually 2-4 times a year. Should be powerful enough to run what I need. Love the remote start so my wife can start if I'm at work. Love that you can switch between gas and propane while unit is still running!

Amazing and powerful

I bought this a couple of months ago to hook up to my power pole in case of an outage. I haven't had an outage yet but since have used it with a blower around the property and a welder. All the power I need with a 220 amp stick welder. I am also looking into the smart start switch which automatically starts when the loss of purchase power. Really like this machine. The only thing is when it is super cold, you have to manually choke it until it starts.

Great!

We have had our generator a few months and have only had to use it a couple of times, but those times have been great! I work from home and need to have power and I was able to switch to this generator with minimal difficulty and disruption. We live in Florida and are getting ready for storm season.

Fantastic generator

I finally got an electrican to hook this up for me today. I was very impressed that when I pushed the start button that after a very brief pause it started on the first try. The electrician checked the voltage from inside the breaker box and it was what it was supposed to be. My wife even turned the dryer on while we were testing and it kept right on going while TV's, lights, internet, a window AC, ceiling fans, 3 refrigerators, a freezer and I'm not sure what else was running. I was very impressed. I'm very glad that we have this backup for the next time we lose power.
