I purchased this unit due to using an older 2200 watt version at work. If this unit is as reliable as those other units, the price point and size compared to the other big 3 is a no brainer. It started right up out of the box, after adding gas and oil of course, and the sawzall i ran off the generator actually drowned out the generator noise.

Bought this generator so I would have enough power to run the A/C in my 5th wheel. The generator runs smooth and quiet especially on economy mode. The screen gives plenty of information especially on how much more power you have available. It is lite enough to easily carry around.

I bought the unit a few weeks ago and it's amazing. Super quit and efficient. I purchased 2 units for camping and house backup. 1 unit can run a 15K AC with no problems. Both units can run the RV at full capacity. Simple to use and the parallel kit is very simple to hook up.

I bought this to power critical loads at my house in case of an extended power outage. After the initial break-in procedures I backfed the generator power into my house breaker panel and selectively closed breakers to power up the essential loads. I was able to supply power to the furnace, refrigerator, freezer, sump pump, garage door opener, and living area lights and outlets simultaneously. It looks like to run the Microwave I will have to make sure some of the bigger loads, like the refrigerator and freezer are not running at the same time. The power is 'clean' enough that the sensitive electronic components of the furnace controls, the television, and the computer modem worked perfectly. The generator starts easy and runs smoothly. It has just the right power output capability to do what I need. The smaller 2200 unit was just a little underpowered and a larger unit was overkill for me. The digital display is a feature I really like. It is nice to know the actual voltage and watt output. I suppose in an extended period of use the remaining run time and fuel level will also be helpful. Total run time will be useful for keeping a good maintenance schedule. The sound level is low enough that it is barely noticeable from inside the house. The neighbors may not even know it is running. I tried to check decibel levels but I am not sure how much was generator noise and how much was normal ambient noise. It seems that with birds, wind, traffic, etc. I have about 60 decibels of constant sound outside. With the generator running the decibel level increased to 85-90 decibels. I don't have any long term experience with this unit yet but so far it seems like it is just what i hoped for emergency use.

After reviewing several generators I bought this model that was on sale. It has several features that are usable when camping. I will primarily use it with the propane mode although it is nice to know it also uses gasoline. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it is. In addition, this will be used in case of power failures at home. Very happy with purchase.

It is well built. The unboxing was good. It came with everything I needed, oil, funnel, a small tool kit, cables to run it in parrallel with another. I fired it up on propane with no problem. I plugged in my air compressor and the rpm's came up just as advertised. It has an ECO MODE. I'm not sure how that operates yet. i will do some reading.

Just opened the box. My husband did all the recommended actions to operate the generator ( adding oil, adding gas, checking spark plug). This little machine started right away WITHOUT using the choke. We let it run for a good while without any issues. The eco mode makes it a bit quieter. It hasn't been used for the main reason i bought it: run a well water pump ( 1.5HP) in case of power outage. It is in another location. so i will update this review. But so far i like it: easy to start, not too heavy for me to carry. The pictures in the manual are very well done and easy to understand. Instructions easy to follow.

Power went out a few weeks ago with no fix time established by com-ed Found this unit the following morning and by noon I was up and running; plugging in an unbelievable amount of stuff! I love the screen showing KW in use / gave me a great window into capacity of the unit / power came back on days faster than expected but so glad to own this beautiful little machine/ sitting on a shelf in the basement ready for the next outage!

My husband's dad has this and after we have been borrowing it, we had to get one! My husband utilizes this on job sites, our converted cargo trailer, emergency purposes and vacation. Runs pretty quiet and pretty light. Appreciate that it was factory tested before receiving it. Cost is more than fair with all its capabilities and qualities.

I have 2 of these. They run fine once you get them to start. Starting is difficult and most of the time requires deviation from the stated process. Both units do not turn off according to the manual instructions. You should cut the gas off and let it stop running. Both of mine will run for hours at like this. You have to end up turning it completely off. I had one of my 2 units replaced under warranty. Received an open box with no oil and still gas in the tank. My neighbor has the iGen2800 and i would recommend that version as it starts and shuts off differently. Once running, it runs great and is quiet. I own 4 generators (thus I am familiar with how to run and maintain. I am meticulous on the break-in and oil changes etc.
