Once I got it assembled, I was pleased with how quiet it runs. Also, the many features such as dual fuel, battery start, and info readout are great. But Champion needs to improve their quality control on mounting holes for the feet and axle. One foot would mount on either side with no problems, but the other made a tight fit for the fourth screw, on either side of the unit and no matter which hole was left for last. Likewise, and even more difficult was mounting the axle - which required a socket wrench and even then I was afraid I was stripping the threads, it was so hard to screw all the way in - which the directions said to make sure was done! Again, no combination of placement or selection of the order of fastening the screws could prevent this. Please improve your welding jigs for the axle, and implement better inspection and more consistently accurate metal forming of the feet. I was also disappointed in the rating of the highest-current output. For use as a home backup generator, one would expect that a user would want to get the maximum possible output current. But there is no such thing as a 37.5A transfer switch/breaker available. My electrician and I finally agreed on 50A breaker. I don't know whether even a 40A is commonly available. Also, there are manual circuit breakers on the unit's panel for every outlet EXCEPT the 37.5A, which is concerning - again since one would expect a user to want to access the largest current source for home backup. This should at least be addressed in the User Manual. Finally, Champion's covers' dimensions do not match those of at least this generator. The recommended cover had dimensions too small to fit, and the largest cover was too long, but that allowed me to cover my propane bottle, too. I look forward to many years of availability for home backup use, for as a whole the unit seems to be manufactured with very high quality, despite the glitches noted.

I purchased this Generator because of the features, capacity and the fact that it is an inverter. We had a thirteen hour power outage and we hooked up the New Generator and powered our whole home! This generator replaces a non-inverter generator that we have had for several years. I really like the quality of the Champion and the features it has. It started right up and ran as advertised. For a generator of this size it was reasonably quiet especially compared to my old generator which was not an inverter. Now we can run our sensitive electronics without worry about damaging them. Our HVAC is a super high efficiency model with a very expensive mother board and I did not want to take a chance with dirty power. I would buy Champion products again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I AM RETIRED FROM THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE , MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT. WE HAD CHAMPION GENERATORS AS WELL AS OTHER BRANDS. THE CHAMPION GENERATORS WERE THE MOST RELIABLE, EASY TO OPERATE AND MAINTAIN.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The main considerations influencing my decision were: (1) Positive customer and expert reviews (2) Availability of nearby service (3) Quiet operation that wouldn't disturb neighbors (4) Sufficient power to run our whole house during a blackout This generator exceeded my expectations in all these areas. It started right away and runs smoothly. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to service—especially for someone like me, who is not mechanically inclined. Overall, I’m very pleased with its performance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchase post Helene to never be without power again. I researched many inverter generators, and this one fit the bill for my intended use. Once available again, I purchased this unit. The quality of the machine looks great. So far, I'm very happy.

I just received this inverter generator and received it today. I was excited to get it set up and fire it up. It went exactly as expected and it started up immediately. This generator was very quiet as advertised. I am very happy to have purchased this generator and I would certainly recommend Champion Generators to anyone looking to "upgrade".

Ok this could not have been more simple. Order the generator and while waiting had the electrician come install a 50 amp connection and breaker. Generator arrived by truck on a small pallet. Unboxed it followed the instructions on installing the wheels and legs. Then put in the oil make sure you go slow otherwise it will overflow. Hooked up the battery. Took it outside hooked up to propane and it fired right up. Able to run almost everything the dryer is a little much for it but I am at 6000 ft so I lose a bit of power. Well worth the money.

This served us well during a direct hit from hurricane Milton; this Champion inverter came to our rescue! It powered our entire house with a soft start on a 4 ton AC compressor. What luxury it felt to have cool air, cold food and lights. Oil was easy to change. It was recommended to change to a NGK plug, so I did that right away. Heavy as you'd expect but it wheels around very easily. I'm so glad to have the dual fuel option, however, I'm dreadfully disappointed to see that a remote start isn't available. I read Champions repsonse on why for LP, but I think that's a bad decision to make, it should be up to the end user to practice safe use. I almost dropped a star for this. I also wish the screws and bolts were stainless steel. The closed case of the inverter makes the noise tolerable. We are pleased! (Minus the elimination of remote start)

Bought it a month ago and first one I received wouldn’t start. Tried calling CPE support but I was just on hold for hours so the retailer replaced the generator. This generator is a beast. I’m surprised how quiet it is for it’s size. I’m still breaking it in but it powers anything I plug into it.

Bought this generator to power my whole house when the power gets shut off. Ive only broken it in and tested it but it has plenty of power to power my whole house and the noise is minimal for a generator of this size. I am pleasantly surprised with it so far. Time will tell how reliable it is but so far so good. Starts easy and no complaints.
