Great generator

I finally broke down and bought a generator after another 2 day power failure at our house. I decided to get one that would power our whole house and love that this 11500 watt generator produced low THD power. I put in a power inlet box to feed my panel. To comply with code the generator needed a floating neutral and this was super easy with this unit. Directions are even provided in the owners manual. It started on first try with the supplied battery. I am still in the break in period of first 5 hours but I have hooked it to my panel with no issues, being sure to stay below the 50% load. No longer to I dread the thought of no power.

Very Easy To Use!!!

I bought this to use for the hurricane weather. I had an electrician connect it to a transfer switch to be able to power my house. It runs everything as long as I am only using one big appliance at a time. During the test runs, it operated perfectly. I am elderly so I cannot pull the start cord, but the remote start works flawlessly!!!

OUTSTANDING

I purchased this generator for backup residential power. Under the threat of a near record cold and snowstorm, my wife and I decided to invest in this unit. All accessories were neatly packed in a skinny cubicle box with all the parts wrapped individually in plastic bags. The oil, wheels, whenches, etc. were all included. (No missing parts). I read the instructions that were well worded and easy to follow, installed the wheels and legs, added the oil, and in my case gasoline, plugged in the battery, selected the fuel type, opened the fuel valve, turned on the switch, pressed the start button on the key fob, and it started right up after the gas made it to the carberator. The feature I like about the key fob is, when you press the start button for 2 seconds, the starter will crank for about 5 seconds, and if it doesent start, it will stop cranking, then pause for about 5 seconds, then crank over again without re-pressing the button. It will continue the on and off cranking sequence until it starts up. The noise level is tolerable. I havent actually connected it to my incoming power panel yet, but I am anxious to try it out.

Highly Impressive

I made the switch from a traditional gas only generator (Dewalt portable gen) after fighting with it for years to get it to start at those critical power outage moments. The new unit came looking very clean and overall was extremely easy to setup and run. I've only run this generator so far on natural gas, but I'm extremely happy with my purchase.

Great Features and Value

This is a great generator for powering the whole house. The setup was easy, and the instructions were clear. I have three options for fuel source, so I can always be ready for a power outage. I have a house and a cottage, so I will use this generator for whichever place loses power. I love the electric start feature. It starts quickly and runs smoothly. This was a great choice!!!

Power when we needed it most!

We bought this generator a few months ago and put it to the test this week when a hurricane took out power in our area. It started immediately and worked perfectly on both propane and gasoline. The gas option proved awesome for us! On a full tank of gas it ran for 11 hours straight, powering our fridge, freezer, some fans and lights. Highly recommend!

Like a champ

I bought this particular generator over any other, specifically because it has a very low THD %. Beyond that, it has all the power needed for an entire house including two air conditioning units (2 and 2.5 ton) and anything else you can throw at it. I fired it up for the first time, running on propane, and it started up right away, all ports working as they should. This is a beast of a machine and hope to not have to use it, but am confident that if and when the time comes, my family will be just fine!

Preparing for winter

Happy we bought as we lose power normally a few times in the winter. Our winter has been mild so we have not had to utilize this as of yet. Easy to put together, Instructions are great for running the machine. Had it running and tested it out. Thus far good.

Amazing generator

I bought this for emergency backup for harsh winter and summer black outs in texas. Instructions are clear and easy to read. Tested remote start and I have to say it's a feature I think all generators should have. The unit runs smooth and with out a beat it runs my ductless system all lights and more this generator is definitely worth the money. It's a strong sturdy design and very user friendly.
