Plenty of power reserve.

This is a great unit with more than enough power for my home. The only thing it needs is a quieter muffler system.

Lost my fingers

The handle is a pinch point and very easy cut off my fingers. Do not install the handle. Extremely dangerous

This product is very good

Works great for everything, except, will not run steady on ethenol gas. Must be reguler gas. took me a while to figure this out.
