Great product. .

Very easy to set up and use. The covered outlets are a good improvement. The electric start is a real winner.

Very happy with assembly at home and convenience of mobility to move from storage to place of hookup on house. Happy with competitive price.

Good clean unit to setup and maneuver with a good price for what you get for performance and service.

Great for what I need...

Very nice, compact and easy to operate. Electric start is great! Good power to run what we need during hurricane season, if we get a power outage.

Great unit, nothing but pure power

This unit is even better than I thought it would be. It has the ability to power everything in the house with power to spare.
