Motley Crue

We are a Motley Crue tribute band that gets out of hand in Key West. We were getting ready to rock on when - YEP power goes out. A fan yells out we got a genny (British dude). Comes back 10 min later. We had to down size our power but we rocked around the cabana. There was enough power for bartemder to run his Vitamix too. You be the best Champion.

Beast

Bought this as a stand by source of power for those pesky winter outages. Assembled easy and purrs like a kitten, Very minimal noise. Outside of having to re-work the ground , this is pretty much a plug & play product that produces plenty of power with minimal sound pollution. So far pretty happy with it.

Works great

I just got this to keep my house going while Southern California Edison has our power out for days. This generator has been a workhorse. I was using a smaller much louder generator before this arrived and it was night and day after. It has given us some of our creature comforts back. The assembly is quick and easy. It’s literally 10 bolts, plug some battery cables together and add some oil. I recommend being ready with more oil for after the break in period.

As Promised

Due to our location we have several power outages annually. A automatic whole house back-up generator was not practical. After much review I choose the Champion model 201407, 11000 watt Inverter/generator. Many of the trades people that I spoke to recommended Champion as a reliable generator on the job site. I purchased the unit From Acme Tools which should be a different review. It arrived on time with all parts and peripherals included. I followed the easy instructions and it fired right up. I let it warm up and then shut it down. The electrician connected it to the manual Transfer Switch he just installed and we fired up the generator again. It supplied the whole house, freezers, AC, Well, and lighting at 50% load. This is just the unit we needed.

Great generator for the value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After waiting over 3 months for this product due to shipping company errors, I am very happy with this generator. My wife and kids finally have a generator that they can operate easily and not have to deal with very loud noise. It was easy to assembly and the instructions were easy to understand.

Excellent generator with great features

Bought this as a backup to change my split phase solar camp power hookup during the gloomy winter months in northern New York if needed. Love the fact it has remote start!! As I don't have to go outside in the single digit đŸ¥¶ this generator has exceeded my expectations!!!!

Remote Control Great Feature

We were impressed with the simple few steps needed to get this generator up and running. I am thrilled to start this with the remote control. It is easy to maneuver to the area we need it with the wheel capability. Much more quiet than our previous generator. We made a great choice.

Makes power outages almost fun!

I bought this inverter generator to protect the circuit boards in my very expensive heat pumps! I actually changed the oil twice during the 5-hour break in period and happily found no metallic residue that I have usually found in other small engines! This machine can run my whole house which includes 5.5 tons of heat pumps, electric range, water pump, refrigerator, freezer… everything is electric in my house! I have tied into a 30 amp receptacle which connects to an interlock kit in my breaker box; it is an awesome setup! The remote start and quiet inverter engine are bonuses. I always use non-ethanol fuel to avoid carburetor and gas line issues! Highly recommended and totally happy living in an area where power outages are common and lengthy!

Whole house backup power

We run a pet boarding business in SoCal and having power at all times is extremely important as some animals need heat or lightning. We decided to purchase model 201407 as a backup power source for our home. So far the generator has worked perfectly. Easy to get setup and break in. This is our first generator and we have been really impressed with the craftsmanship. The only thing that isn't a big deal at all is adding oil could be a tad bit more convenient. But as I said not a big deal at all.

I would buy this product again

Generator has nice features and looks like it will work well although I have not used it yet. One complaint I do have is a couple of the fasteners that hold the side panels on were stripped when I removed it from the box. There was also a loose bolt that I have not figured out where it goes laying in the frame of the generator. This generator looks nice and has nice features only time will tell if it holds up.
