Great features

I just purchased the unit and assembled , per the instructions. I wanted a dual fuel unit, so having already purchased a tank of propane(for my new gas grill), naturally I wanted to see it run on that fuel type. In addition, I also wanted to see if the wireless remote would work as well. The gas tank hook up was simple, and the remote started the unit better than expected. By that I mean; all you have to do is push the button once, the unit will then keep trying until it starts. It took three attempts initially, but after that, it only took one try.I plugged in a small appliance to the standard 120, and it worked. I hope I never have to use it, but I am confident it will work as advertised, should the need ever arise.

Very impressive right out of the box.

I was instantly impressed with the engineering features. It is obviously well built. I put it together and had it running in less than 30 minutes. Not as noisy as my older one. I like the remote start feature and was surprised how easy it was. I am positive I made the right choice.

Easy to operate after setup

This generator is easy to wheel into location and operate, but the initial setup wasn't as smooth as expected. The wheels too extra effort to get threaded in properly. The oil dipstick is difficult to reach and, being plastic, could easily get cross threaded or stripped. If you are patient and don't for anything during setup you will be happy to have this dual fuel generator with electric and remote start.

Easy to set up and use

I needed something to power two refrigerators, a small window air conditioner, and my internet while work was being done on my electrical panel. This unit was easy to set up, the electric starter was nice, had no problems powering the above mentioned items. An added plus, I did not realize it had a pull cord for starting the engine. Nice backup if the electric starter fails. I plan to use only propane in the unit. I have only run the unit for about 6 hours so far, no problems.

Great features:propane gas + petrol + fob

I was able to get it running with both petro, and gas. I was able to get the remote fob connected, and working. The manual is not perfect, so pay attention while setting her up. For example, the manual advises how to hook up the battery, but the unit came with the battery partially installed (there where two mid level wires i needed to connect together). Be advised that the unit is heavy, and produces noise level in line with this type/rate of generator.

Great Little Generator!!!

Bought this right before hurricane Beryl in Houston. This generator worked like a charm and saved me from misery! 6 days with no power and this thing worked like a horse without a hitch. I was able to run a portable a/c, some fans, tv, internet, blow dryer, coffee pot and the things I needed to make it somewhat bearable! Highly recommend for essentials during a big event with no power for days on end.

Great so far!

I just put this together and tested it out with a room heater. Assembly was slightly different than the user manual stated and they gave extra tools. First, the mounting feet holes were close to the radius of structure so it made a little rough tightening all the way snug (no problem for an impact driver). Second, the manual has you following wires to tighten up all the battery connections, mine came all connected and all that was needed to be done was a quick-disconnect at the battery which is not mentioned. Still make sure all connections are tight. Last, it comes with a double sided open ended wrench and a long socket with a removable torqueing bar. I didnt find a use for the socket, unless it is for changing the oil and I didn't need it yet and the manual does not mention it. On first start, and probably every cold start, the choke is not mentioned in the starting process but is necessary. It is located on the opposite side of the control panel and labeled with a lever underneath. It took me a few failed starts to find it then it fired right up.

Starts right up!

Generator was very easy to get up and running. Probably took less than 15 minutes to assemble and start up first time. It is much quieter than my precious 25 year old generator. The controls are easier to read and use. Love the remote and electric start. Seems to be easy to move around. The wheels roll nicely. It powers our fridge and separate freezer effortlessly. Overall very nice for the price! Would recommend if you need something for a few appliances during a power outage.

Very Good Generator; and easy to start.

Good Power and easy to start with the included remote FOB, easy to assemble with good instructions, everything needed (except fuel) to get it running is in the box. The rated power is about 350 watts lower than indicated if you use LPG. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Nice features and looks to be very well made

I bought this at the end of last month and when I took it out of the box, I was impressed by the features it had and the overall look of high quality. The only thing amiss is that the cover to the muffler was bent in but that doesn't appear that it will have any effect on its operation. I intend to fire this up later this week to see how it performs.
