Generator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Generic power systems portable generator. This generator came in handy. We used it for the bounce house we had a party. It worked amazing. The noise was a little loud but to bad.

Better than expected !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very heavy ! Very sturdy , does not budge when running . Easy to maintain and runs extremely well and very powerful . It is a big noise but as long as it works it doesn’t matter !

This product started up with little time, and is what I expected.

The oil which came with generator was not enough to fill as the manual stated 1.6 quarts. Needed to add almost another qt. Not sure of the weight of oil that was provided with the generator, not on qt container..

Good Product so Far

Cranked this for the 1st time yesterday and didn't even need to be choked. Assembly was quick but could have been a little clearer in the instructions and more oil. It is running well now and have not have any issues.

Product is just what I wanted

Generator was easy to set up. Added oil and fuel. Motor started on first pull. I ran it for 20 minutes with torpedo heater and shop vac pluged in. Should be ready if power goes out.

Good value for the price

I put a couple of hours on it this weekend and seems good. A little noisy but for a home back up generator it will be good for the once or twice a year we use it.

Powered our house for 6 days.

Purchased this generator due to all of the freak weather events in Massachusetts. Saved the house when we lost power for 6 days due to the October snow storm. We had heat and hot water and a full kitchen to keep us safe and in our own home.

Best so far

I have two other different brand generators and this is the best. Filled it with oil and some gasoline, connected battery, pushed start and she started right up.

this product will let you down!

Pull starter is very cheaply made(plastic parts!) broke the t handle in only 36hr. of run time and the rest of the recoil broke and now I can not start the generator! also very noisy!
