Have just broken in my Champion Tri fuel generator for 5 hours over a period of a week. Started right up each time and the funnel and the oil drain hose made the first oil change a snap. Had my house outfitted with an outside electrical outlet connected to the breaker box with an interlock to make running the generator more convienient when using it in an actual power outage. Hopefully I won't have to use the generator often but I know It will be there to power the majority of my house when needed

After the big Texas freeze and subsequent power outages last year, I bought this generator hoping it never gets used! But should we have more outages this winter, it's ready to go. I particularly wanted electric start and tri-fuel. I have natural gas and propane on hand. I'd rather not use gasoline, as last winter the gas stations close to me were also without power and couldn't run their pumps. I followed the directions closely, getting it unpacked and started. The battery came charged and the generator started very quickly. I haven't hooked it into the house power yet (an electrician installed a transfer switch) but will before we get the colder forecasts. Just having it on hand gives me much peace of mind.

This was bought to power our house in the event of power outage.We have the option to use gas, propane, or natural gas.I have not used it in a real life situation yet but, it has been tested several times. It hooks up to the house and uses a lock out switch to prevent feed back to the power lines.It powers the entire house. ( we have gas stove ,water heater and furnace). It will also run our 2.5 ton AC. This is my third Champion used for different purpose. Never a problem with a Champion.

After hurricane Ida I decided that I needed a generator that ran on natural gas and could be independent from regular gas. A quick trip to the hardware store and I was able to adapt the generator to my existing gas line that I use for the BBQ pit. It started easily and I now have the ability to keep essential products running (AC, refrigerator, lights, freezer).

I am impressed with the build quality of this generator. Perfect unit to back up the power in my modest size home. Love the triple fuel feature, especially in these "green" times. I am still breaking in the engine and running it primarily on natural gas which is tremendously convenient. The engine noise is about what you would expect but it does run very smooth for a small engine. Only have one small complaint, the oil dipstick. Yellow is not a good color for the dipstick to see the oil level. This unit should be on your "short list."

After the major winter power outage in Texas in February 2021, we decided to get a portable generator. We were excited to find this tri-fuel option which offers natural gas. However, we had some questions and were disappointed with the 50 minute wait on the Champion Customer service phone line. We have not actually tried the generator yet but only gave 3 stars due to not being able to wait 50 minutes to talk to someone in customer service. Hopefully they can get more people answering their customer service phone.

I bought the 8000 Watt Trim Fuel Generator for use during power outages which have been getting worse during winter storms. This is probably a bit more than I need in power, but I wanted the ability to run it off of natural gas and not have the hassle of storing cans of gasoline or propane. It does the job superbly connected to a transfer switch next to my electrical panel. My only complaint is it's really loud, but I believe most of the competition in this price range have the same issue.

The main reason we purchased this generator was it's ability to run on natural gas. The electric start is fantastic and works like a charm. I now can face power outages without the worry of running out of fuel and having to wait in line for hours for gas. With the increased number of hurricanes in our area each year, it gives us peace of mind that we will be in a much better position to handle post-storm situations.

Electric start tri fuel generator. Iv run it for 8 hours so far on natural gas or propane. I bought for Emergency use and love that fact that I can hook into my house NG supply line or have the option between LP or gasoline. It cranks easily. Everything is well marked and easy to use and its quieter than my 3.5KW troy bilt generator (gasoline).

I second all the previous reviews. Well thought thru assembly and ops. What I'd like in future trifuel gen-sets 4-wheels with a simple brake/chocks built in A 50amp output engine Annunciation panel to show amps and power output. Helps greatly for managing loads on the engine
