Lots of Power and Easy to Use

Just connected this to my house's natural gas and breaker box using an interlock kit and was pleasantly surprised that it powers the entire 1800 sqft house (4 ton ac with a soft start) at only 50% load. Turning on the pool pump and booster bump only bumped up to a little over 60% load, electric dryer was about 50-60%, and electric oven was about 80% for a small amount of time before going back down to about 60%. This generator is super simple to start and it is a major relief to know my whole house will be powered during an outage at a cost less than 1/3 of getting a standby generator installed. I could have probably gone with a smaller unit and saved some money, but I am glad to have plenty of extra power.

Lives up to its Name!

I purchased Champion's 12,000-Watt Tri-Fuel Generator to run my home AC and key circuits during power failures. I was tired of running extension cords through the door to keep the fridge running and my old generator still did not have enough power to run my AC, so in the summer, we roasted. I installed a power transfer switch connected to the main panel and with the new Champion generator, I can easily run my AC, fridge circuit and a few other circuits to keep internet/WiFi and lights up and running in the house. Love the propane and natural gas fuel option, I do not have to worry about keeping the gasoline tank full.

"CHAMPION" OF GENERATORS

THIS IS MY SECOND CHAMPION GENERATOR. I WAS SO HAPPY WITH MY FIRST CHAMPION I BOUGHT A LARGER TRI FUEL UNIT AND IT HAS EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS.IT IS SO EASY TO SWITCH BETWEEN FUELS WHICH IS A HUGE PLUS. THE BUILD QUALITY AND FEATURES BEAT THE OTHER BRANDS . I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH BEFORE I CHOSE CHAMPION AND I AM CONFIDENT I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A CHAMPION GENERATOR.

Would buy again, heavy and large but sturdy and well built.

Love the natural gas option, starts up first time every time after purging the air from the natural gas hose. So far so good. Big and heavy but rolls well and I'd rather put up woth the size knowing it's essentially whole home backup

Loud but it works great.

Bought for upcoming hurricane season. Didn't know I would need it for electric for 15 hours when power was suddenly off. Made a big difference with temps in the 90's.

Wish I had known

Everything about it shouts quality. Unfortunately, turns out it is not suitable for me. Warranty not transferable. Boo. Expect this will cost me time and money to sell it.

Awesome unit. I would buy again.

Awesome unit. Has an oil cooler and oil filter. Other brands don't. That is a plus for long life and dependability. Came with both hoses for natural gas and propane. Easy to move around with the large wheels.

It's a beautiful machine

I purchased the 15,000 watt Champion tri-fuel generator to power my house during lengthy power outages, such as was caused by Hurricane Beryl. It starts easily and runs like a champ!
