Meets our needs

Purchased after we had a very high water table in May and the sump pump ran every few minutes for two weeks. Wanted backup for it and a few other essential things. Haven't had the need to use it in an emergency situation yet but set it up and tested everything with good results. Easy to assemble, commission, and start. I purchased a 40lb propane tank to use with it and haven't tried it with gas. When the power goes out here it is typically only for a few hours. I'll keep a full gas can too, just in case, and have two 20lb tanks for the grill as backup.

Easy Setup

Bought this and was very pleased to see how easy the setup was. Runs great, haven't had to use it yet other than just testing it out upon arrival. Only complaint I have is the funnel they provided. Makes it hard to get the oil in the reservoir due to its length and shape. Other than that, very pleased so far.

Easy setup

We haven’t needed to use it yet, but it was very easy to put the wheels and feet on. The owner’s manual gives a lot of information. One thing I wish was included was a packing list with amounts for each item. The manual said to verify we had all pieces, but it’s hard to verify if you’re not positive how many of each piece should be included.

Perfect for my needs

I bought a new home in Austin. The winter ice storm was a real chilly wake-up call. Been looking into generators. I like it has the dual-fuel option. I started up this weekend, It was fun to light up a campsite for some Glamping..Hope I won't need this Winter but feel more prepared.

First storm as a single female

I bought the duel fuel generator last month because a storm was heading in my direction. I thought I wasn’t going to have to use it until my lights went out. The setup was extremely easy, but when it came time to start it up I couldn’t according to the manual. However, I googled it and it started. I used the propane fuel and I most say there wasn’t any gasoline smell or a lot of noise coming from the unit. Also the propane ran for about 13 hours or so. Then at one point I thought someone tried to steal it because it was so quiet. I’m pleased to say that I’m satisfied with my purchase and look forward to using it again.

Starts right up!

Due to COVID, my wife now works from home and needs power for her computer, printer, phone and fax machine. We had a power outage last week due to high winds. I purchased this item and am very pleased! Filled it with the included oil, a few gallons of fresh gas and it started on the third pull. It looks well built and should last us for years.

Easy Setup and Use

Setup, and starting, for the first time was simple for a first time user. Recommend reading the instructions especially if you’ve never used one before. The oil input can be a bit of a mess with the screw on funnel so use towels or cardboard for clean up.

Great value

Purchased this generator this past weekend. It had great reviews and seems to be a good value $$$ wise. The wheels and feet were easy to install. It is easy enough to maneuver around. We will sleep better knowing it is here and ready to go if and when the need arises.

Great Generatot

An winter ice storm threat and possible power outages made me run out and buy this generator (based on other reviews). I got it home, unboxed it, put on the wheels, poured in the oil and a couple gallons of gas and it fired right up (and I'm 70 years old so if I can handle this generator a younger guy should have no problems). I plugged in a refrigerator and a couple lamps and everything worked fine. I'm ready for the ice storm.

Easy to use

I represent One Fellowship United Methodist Church. We were in need of a generator for our outdoor celebrations and festivals and Vacation Bible school. We were worried that it would be a complicated process to assemble and utilize the generator. But the instructions were so clear and easy to understand. We were able to power the outside lighting and (most importantly) the bouncy house for the kids!!! This generator is a great acquisition for our church.
