Very happy with the quality for the price. I gambled and won, as I couldn’t find this brand in stores to check it out before I ordered. But it lived up to the reviews. Would recommend and would buy again. Had to hold back a star because I don’t think the oil was drained for shipping it literally was covered in it, bleeding into the cardboard, but it’s for outside use so I rubbed it in for a rust protectant.

Seems like a solid unit with great features and specifications. Excited to try it out but need to get damage to air cleaner resolved (arrived cracked with hole in housing). Hoping for a quick resolution. Looking forward to being able to power my home during the next power outage!

Luckily I have only needed to use this one time since I purchased it but it was easy to start and use I have used it several other times just because. When the power went out, working from home was going to be a challenge. But this thing saved the day.

I received with no visible damages. I thought this was important to say since there were so many reviews that stated they received with damages. I also didn’t buy because of so many. I gave 4 stars because I have not added the oil or gas. Will do that tomorrow and hopefully it works fine.

our insurance policy for power outages here in Pa.being we are both in our mid 60's wanted to make sure my wife could start this if i am no longer around. well she got it started on her 2nd pull. feels good to know she can have electricity during an outage.

Electric start is great for those cold days. Large wheels for ease of moving. Well built and and quieter than my previous generators. Smaller size makes it easy to store. CO2 sensor and low oil indicators make for safe operation.Built in RV and 5 prong connectors are very convenient. Would definitely buy this product again.

When I am able to move it outside, the generator does exactly what I need it to, however, the muffler is pointed directly at the wheel base, which makes the tires and wheels very hot. The wheel base is also not sturdy. The unit I have has the hub spot-welded to the frame. The vibration and heat caused the wheel base to collapse after 1 hour of use and I had to go buy a cart and get a buddy to help me wheel it back to the garage. Its also kind of loud.

I Bought this only for a backup for my house .... I don’t have a problem with my electric Bill so I didn’t go with Solar panels ... that loan for everything was 19k and only want it for a backup ... tired of everyone with solar still got running lights when our neighborhood goes out so I got a Generator for under 500 and have me powered wtill lights are back up. Better investment than the solar panel system

Instant electric start, quick as turning a light switch on. Would have given five stars if owners manual was better. Directions was to add oil 'til in operating zone of dip stick.When I got it to the operating zone the full quart was consumed, so dump the full quart in and skip all the repeated checks of dip stick. Could not find capacity in specs. Over all quality of gen. is very good. Especially like the fuel shut off valve between gas tank and carburetor as this allows bowl to be completely emptied out preventing build up of carbon in the jets, a problem I had on my old gen.

This replaced a 20 year old 5k watt portable generator that finally gave up the ghost. Even though this has more power than my old generator, it's smaller which is nice when it comes to storage. Used this for a few hours on day one when power company replaced a pole down the street. Love the electric start and the fact that this generator runs much quieter than my old 10hp Tecumseh. Engine ran smooth and power was plentiful. Very happy with purchase. (4/5 rating because nothing's a 5!)
