Carries a load.

Just installed it. So far so good. It easily carries the whole house (only 2.3kw load). I tried it on my EV 6, charging it at 240v 7.5 kw, which maxed it out, but it carried it. I'm impressed. Easy to start, and quiet.

Quiet and powerful. 5 sec fire up first time!

Works great and quiet for its size. Paired with a Generlink and soft start on my 3 ton AC and it ran my house no problem. It is HEAVY so be prepared for it!

Superb generator

Started right up! Haven't had to use it for a full outage yet, but it powered everything we needed seamlessly and effortlessly. This generator is extremely quiet and it's compact design makes storage easy and convenient.

Well built unit. Seems to be what I was looking f

I purchased this after we had a two day power outage. I want it to run my AC when the power is out.. I have a whole house unit but the AC is not on it. This should be adequate for this use.

Excellent home back up generator. I wanted a generator that had a 50 amp outlet to run the AC, refrigerators, chest freezers, sump pump and lights in a house during power outage.

Lots of features, well-built, and quiet.

Loaded with features, well built, quiet, and very capable. Included in the box were all the supplies and tools needed to assemble it (which is very simple) and get it up and running. A propane hose connection is also included, which made it possible for me to start the break-in process using propane as my fuel source. It's heavy, but the pull-handle and wheels make it mobile enough to get it where you need it. You simply need to attach the wheels and handle, connect the battery with the quick connection, add the included quart of oil, and fuel it up. Then you're ready to go. During the break-in period, I fluctuated the power load by connecting some portable 1500W heaters to it and turning them on and off periodically (as advised). The instructions say to not exceed 50% power load for the first 5 hours of operation. The unit seemed to handle the shifting power load seamlessly. The remote start is super handy. But you can also use the push-button start or the pull rope. It feels and operates like a high quality machine. I'll likely need to add the high elevation kit to improve fuel efficiency since we're above 5000 feet elevation in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Had to pick it up in NV because they wouldn't ship it to CA even though it's CARB certified and on the approved list to be sold in CA. Not sure the reason for the hassle, but this is the one I wanted after reading reviews. I'm glad I could get it, and so far, I'm very pleased.

So many great features

This generator is packed with features too numerous to mention. We wanted to switch to a lower THD generator and finding this one, with this much power, with an inverter made this a no brainer. For our needs this can power every necessity in our home. Remote start is a great bonus!

Quiet and Versatile

Quiet, Quiet, Quiet - love this generator so far. Easy to assemble, and clear directions for setup and startup. The User Manual needs to be updated to include that there's a mesh, plug type oil filter, where it's located and how to access it, but other than that it was pretty thorough.

Excellent purchase

I just bought this igen11000DFc inverter generator. I'm very impressed with the quality. Came with everything needed to get it assembled and up and running. I paired the remote start to it and it fired up first shot. Ran it for 2 hours today. I need 3 more hours to complete break in. I was kind of surprised by the quietness of it. I thought it would be a little bit louder so that's a plus. I ran it on has today, next time I'll try propane. Overall great purchase and so far I'm very satisfied!

Great unit terrible safety co sensor

This seems like a great generator but the CO sensor is extremely too sensitive. Won't stay on but I'm sure if it had a less sensitive CO sensor somehow then it would be a great unit... however, due to this issue I really wish I would have went with a different brand.
