First-class Inverter Generator

I became friends with my Champion Inverter when Milton visited us. She ran like a top for two straight days. My only complaint is that after doing the 5 hour break-in oil change, I found that screwing the oil plug was a bit challenging because of its odd position and the fine threads on the plug.

Great quiet generator

This generator is awesome! Right out of the box it was easy to setup and get running. Extremely quiet! I ran this thing for a week while staying in someone's front yard and we were outside all day and never noticed it. Only wish I would have gotten the dual fuel option but I am 100% satisfied.

Awesome machine GREAT JOB!

I don't know how anyone could mess up on the first start up. Just follow direcrtions and easy start up. I did test it up my 2023 Grand Design and it worked all I threw at it. Absoslutely no complaints here. If needed I would absolutely buy a Champion again.

Great generators

This is our third champion generator. We have an older 2000 inverter (for the boat) and a regular 4500 generator we use for the house. This generator is perfect for our rv and we love the remote start. We have had excellent luck with our champion generators therefore we are back for our third! Thank you!

Love it! Easy instructions. Quiet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this when we lost power during a storm. My only complaint is I wish I would've bought it sooner. Really quiet which is nice. Ran my refrigerator, tv, light and a small fan and was only using 10% of available power. This is also great on gas.

Go with something else

I bought this inverter 3 months ago and have used it for camping and it has blown up already. I have tried to get into contact with customer services multiple times and got a response about two days later and no follow up once telling them the issue.

Additionally, we can also be contacted via live chat through our website.

Nothing but problems

I found I can't seem to get this thing to start initially the computer office seems to be glitchy. I can get the fob to turn it off, but the fob doesn't even try to turn it on. It's been nothing but a problem since I got it when it finally does work. It works well but getting it starts sucks

We are very sorry to hear this. If the remote fob is able to only turn off the generator, then it is likely that the remote module itself is not functioning as it should and would need replacing. At your earliest convenience, please give us a call at 1-877-338-0999, submit a message via live chat through our site, email at support@cpeauto.com, or reply to the email notification you will receive once our response has been posted to your review, so we may help address this issue for you. Thank you for your patience.
