Nice Generator

I purchased this mainly in case of power outage or emergency. It was $50 more than the other one I was looking at, but this one is larger, is duel fuel and came with a wheel kit. I really like that it is duel fuel which gives me options if I don't have one of the fuels on hand.

Powerful generator at a great price

High quality and well built machine. It looks like a professional rig and has a lot of great options for many different uses. I mainly bought it for backup power but according to the ratings on this unit will power a whole rv. I hope to be using this generator for a long time. The propane option is another reason that I bought it. The dual fuel option adds a lot of diversity in usage.

Great Features / Portable

I purchased this product after a recent power outage during a snowstorm. During my such I found this item to have better reviews, the size was perfect, it has dual power options and lasts a long time on fuel. I'll never go without heat during a snowstorm again.

So far so good

Started up on the first pull. It even came with oil! Unlike another product a friend of mine purchased. He had to go to three different stores to find the oil he needed. Easy to assemble (just attach the wheels and supports). Unit runs pretty loud. Handle makes it very easy to maneuver.

Easy to use

Bought it for emergencies in this crazy weather in Texas mainly to connect our fridge. Tried it for the first time and it was easy to turn on. I really like that I can either use propane or gasoline to be able to use it for a longer time if needed.

Excellent generator for emergency preparedness

This generator was easy to assemble the feet and wheels. The included funnel makes adding the oil easy. I plan on using propane to power it and it starts up quickly. 2 - 3 pulls and it's up and running. I like the power output, as we have it mainly to power the fridge and freezer during hurricane outages along with the microwave. Plenty of power for that (we use a transfer switch at the breaker box). I am very pleased with my purchase.

Worked wonderfully!

I purchased this generator to supply power while replacing the service panel on my house. This required the electric company to disconnect power for this job as the house was built in the 70's and was not up to 2020 code (eg. No external cut-off to the main service panel). Of course we still needed electricity to perform work. It started up right away after addig the oil and gas. This generator performed wonderfully providing hours of power. Since we were only running a few things, fuel consumption was not high and we still had half a tank or more of fuel after probably 6 hours of service. The wheels are nice for moving it around. The only drawback is that the could be made longer so that your ankles don't continually hit the unit while pulling it. Otherwise, it is a great generator!!!

Runs great but still brand new.

Bought June 2024. Haven’t tried gasoline yet. But runs great on a standard propane tank. Haven’t tested it with any load yet as this is mainly for emergency power during the very frequent power outages here where we live. Had to leave the review now to get the free cover. But if it doesn’t stand up to time I will back up and revise. I’ll try to do so even if it DOES stand up to time.

great value for price

Great portable generator, with enough power to run my house during a power outage, and also being able to use on my trailer when camping, and quiet enough not to disturb neighbors or surrounding campers. Also being able to run on gas and propane is an even bigger bonus.
