Good product

Good product and runs everything needed in my RV. Have it mounted on rear of motor home and can barley feel or hear it running over A/C. Good product but I over payed. I expected generator to have electric start for the price and was very dissatisfied it does not.

Great buy

Only used twice so far but can't get over how quiet it is. Even when close to the generator you can still talk to others. Haven't had many of champions products but heard from others that they are great and so far it has worked just as it should. It's a little louder than a Honda but at a realistic price. Great product definitely recommend to others.

Super quiet and nice features

I bought this unit to run sensitive electronics during any outages. So far it has perfomed perfectly. Easy to use and so quiet. This unit is my second Champion buy. My older one works fine, but does not have an inverter. Now I have more than enough power available to keep things going during outages. Very happy.

SO Pleased with this Generator!

We bought this generator for our RV. True to claims made by Champion, it is quiet and runs smoothly. As a woman, I appreciate how VERY easy this pull-to-start generator is! I assumed that I would have to rely on my husband to start it but, happily, that that is not at all the case. The open frame makes it super easy to handle and secure for travel. The fuel shutoff valve is a great feature - my husband normally installs one on all of our gas-powered equipment so it is nice that it is included on this generator. We highly recommend this generator and are thrilled with ours.

Quiet!!

Skeptical at first about the loudness. I own a Honda generator, but I needed more power. So I bought this one. Love it!! Great size, not too bulky, light in weight, and not loud compared to others. Ive been looking around. I can say im satisfied with my purchase.

Outstanding

We periodically have cold weather here in Georgia so we purchased this 4250 watt portable generator in case we need it. We followed the instructions and ran it for five hours and it works quite well. Hopefully, we will never need it, but have some peace of mind in case we lose power.

Amazing product

It was 103 degrees on 06/05/24 and power went out in my area only. My wife asked for us to buy a generator. I thought fine but didn't think we were going to need that fast. If it wasn't for this generator, we would have lost about $800 in animal medical supplies. So if you ask me if we're happy and satisfied with this product, we say a big YES!!!. Easy to use and long lasting. Don't foresee any issues.

Solid Piece of Equipment

Bought this generator in preparation of the possibility of having a winter storm in central Texas. Purpose of this equipment was to be able to hook up to a transfer switch on my smaller house since most of my major utilities are gas. I liked that this inverter was ready to use right out of the box, coming with oil and funnel, makes going to the store one less trip. Followed the recommend starting instructions and after 5 hours of use, changed the oil. Texas didn't end up having a winter storm this year yet, so I utilized it in building a shed, running my saws and all power off of it. Worked as it should and didn't lag power. Will be looking to upgrade with a parallel kit when my power needs increase.

What a pleasant surprise! It is much more than I expected!

Hi Gang, I have good news and I have bad news. Which do you want first? OK, let's get the bad news out of the way since it doesn't directly involve Champion. My #200954 Champion Inverter Generator arrived with a little damage. A screw missing. A crushed front of the shipping box. A huge dent in the front facia with a mounting tab badly bent and an inoperative LED display. Something whacked the carton in shipping and it has nothing to do with Champion. I am not really going to dock Champion for that, but it did happen. I will post a PS to this depending on how the situation is resolved. I have high hopes. On to the good news. I love this thing. It is replacing another unit about the same output but an old time generator generator called a RAVEN. It never did run to my satisfaction and I donated it to the high school small engine class. The Champion is an Inverter Generator so the first thing you notice is that about half of it is gone. I could barely budge the old one. The new one I can pick up and put on the picnic table. It is relatively quiet. The literature says 66db or 67db at 20 feet? My meter says 72 at 20 feet but that is just fine for me. My unit is not going to any campgrounds. It is very well made, very well finished, rugged when you get right to it and seems to be as easy on gas as they say it is. I just passed my 80th birthday and I decided that it is time that I have a little more comfort in my life. So, my Champion 4250 is going to bear the brunt of the responsibility for keeping the air conditioning going on my off-grid cabin. I was very surprised to find that it ran the A/C while in the econ mode and never did go UP to high speed. It runs the A/C, while the compressor is kicking in and kicking out, and does it all on Econ setting. That's the kind of generator I want. That, and it starts on one pull. I hope that champion sends me a new, undented facia and maybe a replacement LED. But, even if they didn't, I'm OK. I love i

Great Generator!! Highly reputable and reliable!! Buy it !

I've owned many generators in my life, and let me tell you, the build quality and engineering design of this open frame inverter generator is second to none. You can clearly tell the Champion engineers have thought of everything to make this build and design as close to perfect as possible. This is a very fuel efficient unit, the motor only works as hard as it needs to in order to handle the load that's put on it. You're able to achieve up to 22 hours of runtime on 1 tank of gas at a 25% load. Also, Champion offers an amazing 3-year warranty coupled with free lifetime technical support !! Champion's reputation for building reliable and reputable generators as absolutely outstanding and impressive. They truly do stand behind their products. With proper care and maintenance, you will easily get many, many years of trouble-free service and thousands of reliable hours of usage from their generators. If you're looking for a great quality generator with an outstanding warranty and excellent customer service, you need to buy a Champion generator !!! You will definitely not regret your decision !! I highly recommend this generator to anyone needing a great quality unit that's built to last for a long time.
