Great Wattage Size and Features At Great Price

First Impressions of the unit are positive. The wattage size and features at the price point are very competitive in the market. Setup and initial start-up was a breeze and straight forward. Initially started up on propane and with electric start, and started first time turning over. Checked voltage and ran a saw with no issues. I have given it 4 stars as i wish the wheels were a little heavier duty with rims and tires instead of plastic with bearings. Also wish the battery tender cable was 2 or 3 times longer (only about 5 ft), but a bonus they even include this as other units I was looking at didn't. The charger also shows a green light if not connect to anything, so if it stops working internally or at generator circuity, you'll never know! I thought the remote start was a little gimmicky, but to be honest, its nice to not have to be right next to the unit to start it!

Nice Generator

We purchased this generator because it had numerous good reviews and our power has been going out more frequently. It’s big enough to power most everything in our 2200 sq ft home. We’ve tried it out and it works great. Not as loud as I thought it would be too! This generator is very well built and are pleased that it can be run on gasoline or propane.

Thoughtful design

I purchased this from the contractor that installed the outside-house wiring and cut-out on the circuit board. The unit is "reasonably" quiet. The wheels on the frame make it possible for 1 person to move the generator. The electric starter is working very well. There is a remote keyfob to start and stop, which will be nice when it's raining (how often does the electricity grid fail on a sunny day?). The gas tank holds 6.5 gallons, so it can run quite a while. Our house is all electric heating and cooling with well water. I can't say that I'm looking forward to using this generator, but the next time the electricity goes out we'll be ready to continue living in our house.

Great Power

We bought this powerful generator for the frequent power outages we have in Pa. My wife and I were getting tired of not having any power to our house during these outages, especially no heat. Looking to give this mega generator a shot at keeping our house up and running during our next outage!

Hard to start

I Bought this about seven months ago due to freeze and power outages in Texas. very satisfied with the power output , i have a sub panel away from the home to keep it from getting wet. I dose power all my major appliances and AC units. The only thing is that when i try to turn it on with the pull mechanism it is extremally difficult. Also if it gets wet it is hard to start as well. for those to reasons i am not 100% satisfied.

Whole house covered!

I bought this two months ago online. It's easy to start and hooked up and ready to power the whole house with a switch on my circuit breaker panel. It comes with motor oil, and a hose for propane use. There will be enough power to keep my water pump running!

My First Generator

I purchased this in light of power outages due to hurricanes and severe storms. Bought it after hurricane Beryl and it is Hot here in Texas. This machine has good reviews and a lot of features. Looking forward to seeing it in action. It is a great looking machine!! I pick this one for the dual fuel and power.

I can't believe the value!!

I have owned a LOT of generators over the years....but this thing, is absolutely incredible! It does things I would never have expected. I'm really just blown away. And the attention to detail, little things like the spark plug socket, the funnel for the oil, most places don't include that little stuff...it is definitely appreciated! I am more than happy with my purchase!

Great Generator

I bought this a couple weeks ago and the generator is really nice. Super easy to assemble and it started right up. I am having a transfer switch put in and will be using the 50amp connection most of the time. I recommend this product! Looking forward to using it!

Quality

Just received the generator, haven’t had the chance to use, (bought because we lose power every year due to hurricanes) but I can say that it is definitely quality built. Everything looks perfect and very well made. I have no doubts about this unit lasting a good while. Instructions are easy to read, setup is straight forward.
