great features

I haven't had it very long but one reason I bought it is because of the tri fuel feature. I like that it can use propane, natural and gasoline. We have power outages occasionally and will like having a backup plan. It's not too bulky and will fit in my garage without taking up too much room.

Easy to assemble easy to start

This generator was easy to set up following the instructions It also started right up using the start button . My old generator did not have electric start so this is a great feature.i also like the trickle charger included this guarantees it will turn over in cold weather.so far i have only used it to operare some small items to break it in but it has had no problems

Good Portable Generator

I recently bought this generator and so far have been impressed with the features. It has a pull start, push button start, and a remote key fob that all work in starting without issues. The sound is not too bad, but as expected with a generator it does have that common loud engine noise when standing next to the generator. From inside the house it's just a low hum. It does run quite stable. I have yet to test it's load. I am having a manual transfer switch installed and once installed will give the generator a full test to ensure it will support the rated watts. No complaints so far. It is heavy and having the wheels and handle making moving it very easy. Wheels seem rugged so far.

Great Machine, Good Customer Service, But....

Out of the box the machine was as advertised and looked amazing. The set up was easy and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. The price and features of this unit are amazing, Great Value! Now that it is running I am very satisfied. Here is where the "But" comes in. The issue I had was that it wouldn't start. I read many of the reviews and it seems to be a common problem. I called customer service and the agent gave me two suggestions, to add a little more oil so it is in the middle of the acceptable range on the dipstick, and to remove the solenoid off the bottom of the carburetor and make sure the needle is moving freely. Despite the fact that the process to removing the solenoid was a labor intensive and frustrating process, the two suggestions did the trick and it started right up. Once running it performs beautifully. But, having to do all this was a bit time consuming and frustrating. I would suggest that anyone purchasing this unit, and I DO RECOMMEND YOU DO! Make sure it is running well before you go out and try to get it going in the field or during an emergency.

Great generator to power my house!

I bought this generator 4 months ago and am very glad I did. I live in a rural area & unfortunately lose power more than I care to admit. I love that it runs on gasoline, propane & natural gas. I have my house wired to transfer power to the generator as a back-up and love the peace of mind that comes with knowing I'll have the essentials available no matter what happens

would not start at first test run

Out of the box it would not run. Fortunately I'm a mechanic. Testing showed we were getting fuel to the float bowl and the fuel shut off solenoid at the carburetor was not letting fuel in. After testing wires, found a loose plug. Fixed the wires and now it runs great.

Very nice generator for the price

I bought this generator so I can run more items in my home when the power goes out. I've only run it for about 30 minutes, but it isn't any louder than my smaller generators. I really like that it has a pull cord in addition to the electric start. The remote start is very nice though. It even came with it's own battery maintainer so I didn't have to purchase one.

Dual fuel is a must!!

I bought this a couple months ago and wanted to make sure everything was good with it before I left a review, and I couldn't be more pleased with it!! The dual fuel is definitely a must when it comes to a generator. We ran out of gas and it was so nice to be able to just hook up the propane and we were ready to go again!

Great generator with lots of extras.

I purchased this a few weeks ago and installed a transfer switch and I couldn't be happier. I don't have to worry about spoilage anymore. Easy to operate with more than enough power to help out my neighbors. I love the fact that I can use propane to power the generator.

Exactly what I needed

Bought this generator to power up a mother-in-law apartment that is now our mud room / pantry. We live in the south and it's common to get the power knocked out by hurricanes. This part of the house has it's separate water heater / shower. It was perfect to make a shelter-in-place with it's own generator. I wired in a exterior transfer switch / connector and this generator worked perfectly for the job.
