[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] just recieved my new inverter and set it all up. all went well and unit ran nicely and was extreemly quite. Would have gone 5 stars except the owners manual isnt always clear and there was no thought put into the product around using a trickle charger that should have been built in, if you have a battery on a product that is only used 1-2 times/year you have to think about how the customer will charge it and make it convieneint for them. The display cycles between the modes makes it somewhat useless , would be better to have a button that allows you to cycle between the modes and leave it where you want.

Just bought. Impressed how everything you need to start up is in the box. Instructions easy and clear. No issue installing handles/wheels. Once ready, started right up by electric start but also tried the pull start which I can do but when my wife tried she was unable to do. Although it wieghs 205 lb I can move around easily but on this one my wife was able to wheel around. We are currently waiting for our electrician to come to get set up into our main panel for the house. We are confident this is going to be a great back power supply.

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)

Just received my model 201417 inverter generator. I had a smaller Champion Generator before and was very satisfied. After following the easy instructions and firing up my new, much quieter and easy start inverter generator, I know I will be very satisfied with this model also.

[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.

Bought about a month ago for emergency backup and powering some equipment when far away from wall power. Haven't tried the second part, but it handled powering the house extremely well. One thing to note is that the 30A fuse is off by default and it's not covered in the manual at all. So if you're trying to connect the 30A socket to the transfer switch and the electricity gnomes don't want to make your stuff work, don't be me and re-check every connection for 5 minutes. Start with the fuse.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I very happy with this generator. I love the easy start and information read out. I had to buy a new power cord for panel inlet and change inlet box at panel. No big deal. This generator has a lot more watts than my old one which was a pull start. It's big and heavy but the grab bar and wheels make it easy to move around.

i just bought my generator and i could not be more excited about my purchase to know that i have such an amazing state of the art product to get me through an unexpected event and an item that is going to be useful anytime i need backup to power my home..

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.

I’ve been waiting for Champion to come out with a duel fuel generator with a very high wattage. I currently own the 8750w open frame inverter generator but wanted more wattage to cover my whole house. The 201417 model does just that. I can now hook this generator up to my interlock kit and run my whole house. The bonus is being able to use propane to run the generator. No more worry about a gummed up carb. It was very easy to set up. Fired right up and so much quieter than the open frame. I own other Champion power equipment and have never had an issue. I highly recommend this generator.
