I followed the break in instructions and ended up having to babysit the unit to keep it running. I needed to keep the choke on for the first hour or it would shut down on the "Run" setting. Now that I am into hour three it will run on the "Run" setting with a few stutters every so often. Hope it keeps getting better and runs steady when I get to using it under load.

Wow, what a sweet piece of equipment. Added the oil (supplied) filled up the gas tank and one pull and it started. Varied the load and with the ECO function enabled it quieted right down with no load. And I just love the LED readout. Lets you know what load it's carrying, how long it will carry it, running time, fuel level and voltage. It's a very well designed piece of equipment.

Great looking unit....Had issue of smell of melting plastic or rubber on initial start-up...I removed end panel at exhaust side and found a large rubber cap laying in the air intake used to cool the motor....i put the rubber cap in the end of the motor where it belonged...Don't know if any damage was caused by over-heating

works as advertised. I don't have anything else to say except, what's up with the minimum letter count? all I needed to say was it "works as advertised" and the system kicked me out for leaving to short of a review. Goofy, I didn't need to add all the rest of this except for the systems request.

I just bought this but so far I really like what I see. I’ve tested it and it’s very quiet. It usually starts on the first pull. I haven’t needed it yet, thank goodness. But I’ve plugged in several items at the same time and didn’t have any problems.

I have just received my generator but everything seems to be well made. Hopefully it will serve me well. I like the features other than you have to unscrew 2 screws and pop the cover off to check the oil. I could see getting lazy about checking the oil.

Been running for an hour, doing the breakin as we speak. Packaging humidity packet broke and all the pellets were in the generator housing. No big deal. Cleaned out, added the oil that came with the unit, added gas and started up after about 5 pulls. After generator was warm I shut it off and restarted with 1 pull. Hopefully it lives up to others reviews that have had it longer.

I bought this generator in Jan after my Yamaha generator took a dive. This generator is mainly used for remote camping situations where we need to charge our trolling motors. Sometimes this generator will be used for tailgating and other applications. Overall I’m happy with the purchase and would recommend this generator to anyone.

Got this at the HD. Everything was in the box except gas. Literally followed the instructions, put the gas in it, pulled the cord once and started right up. Only had it a month but so far so good. I run my refer, tv and portable AC on it because California no longer has dependable power.

Just got it today opened it up looks very nice. Sounds good will test it out this weekend. For a longer run time. Quiet compared to others. Came with spark plug tool, small Phillips screw driver, 4 cycle 10w-30 oil, instructions and if you leave review you get a cover for it for free.
