Purchased this product to prep for hurricane season. Started right up on both LPG and gasoline fuel. Ran it for the 5-hour break-in period and then drained the oil. Will be ready to go when the time comes by just adding oil and fuel. During the initial run time, I powered a large refrigerator/freezer, a separate chest freezer, a few fans, a battery charger, and used a shop vac. Everything ran as if plugged into public utility power. Generator was not straining - seemed like there was plenty more power to spare. Ran about 4hrs 15min on first gallon of gas.

I bought this product based solely on the reviews of others and it dual fuel option. I have never purchased a generator of any kind before. However, I recently purchased an Airstream Bambi and looked into the necessity of having a dependable generator when " boondocking." Champion came up consistently as a dependable generator for my needs. Further review supported the benefits of have the dual fuel options as LP was preferable to gasoline in most cases. So I purchased this model for it reputation, features, and it price. Haven't taken it out the box yet, but I'm trusting the reviews and Champion's long history of dependable products.

Just finished a weekend of camping with this machine. It powered my travel trailer well and was easy to start. comparatively quiet and easy to use. i plan to use it primarily on propane but having the ability to use gas is a big plus. I have recommended it to allI have encountered. Good job Champion

I'm a solo female RVer and I bought this to use while boon docking. Setup was easy and it started right up. It was a little loud but I expected that. I wish I would have paid a little more to get the electronic start but oh well. I do plan on purchasing the wheel attachment as it is quite heavy for me to move around. Overall I'm pleased with the dual fuel generator.

The 3500 watt Champion generator is just what we needed. The ability to run on propane or gasoline was the primary reason that I purchased this. The startup instructions are easy to follow and the wheel kit that I purchased will allow easy movement. In Texas, we have to be aware of grid failures and I love to go down to the beach on fishing and camping trips. This generator is great for both without being too big

I only gave it a 4-star rating because I haven't had any long term experience with it yet. I have only used the generator for a couple of startup runs. It seems to be a well built piece of equipment but only time will tell how good it is. Planned Use: After spring / summer storms or winter ice storms knock out electricity for an extended period. It will keep essential services going in the house; fridge, lights, TV, etc. Good price. Don't have to tie up a lot of cash for a generator that will not get used much. Dual fuel is a nice feature to have. Maintenance startup runs are easy with propane, don't have to drain the fuel lines afterwards. Ran perfectly out of the box so no problems yet. Adequate supply of accessories are available for add-on improvements. Only drawback for me was having to purchase a wheel kit separately. It should have come with wheels already on it. It weighs about 100 pounds so it needs wheels and a pull handle (also in wheel kit).

First generator I've ever owned. Very easy to get up and running right out of the box. The dual fuel sources are a huge benefit. One note about the unit....if there's not enough oil in the crank case it will not start. It has a "low oil" sensor that'll stop the engine. I think this is an awesome idea however we read right past this piece of info in the manual and called Champion because it would not start. They quickly knew this issue and we we're up and running in no time. Good customer service. Highly recommend.

I am in Louisiana and here a generator is as essential as a coffee pot. Last year I bought a competitor's generator and it was a nightmare... Firman. The Firman product failed after 3 days and there were no Fedex deliveries w new parts or shops open... I had a dead generator so choose wisely. My neighbor bought this brand of generator and it ran for the entire time that we were without electricity while I cooked in the heat. I really wanted an inverter but this will do me for now and the price was great compared to everything else on the market. I paid 3x as much for the competitor's model. My judgement won't be final until I get it out, fire it up and use it under desperate conditions and actually call the company for help if I need it. This was a quality that I really needed last year and the competitor didn't come through for me.

I bought this generator in case of a power outage. I have only had it for a few weeks so I can't say how it will hold up over time. I tested it out for about 30 minutes on both gas and propane. It was a little difficult to start the first time on both fuel types. Hopefully, it will fire right up when I really need it. I deducted one star because it did not come with any oil for the engine. I had to make another trip back to the store to get oil. Also, it should come with wheels already on it because it's too heavy to pick up and move around. I have a wheel kit ordered and on the way. I hope you find this review helpful and happy #sweepstakes.

I bought this generator because it was dual fuel and because of the price. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was one of the quietest out there! The generator cranked on the very first pull. I use the generator for camping and it runs everything in my trailer trailer to include the air conditioner and microwave. I have owned several generators in the past, but this Champion is by far the best one I have ever owned!
