It is light and quiet, but the power is sometimes inconsistent. It somewhat does the job for me but it is limited. In general it is a good product for the price compared to a Honda. The customer service experience I had was disappointing.
I used this generator at home under many weather systems from warm to cold front. It always started and ran very quit and smoothly. I did this in preparation of using it during my camping trips. Just wanted to know how it would perform. It performed very well and the maintenance of it is very easy.
I bought this unit to power my circular saw and recharge the battery packs for other tools. It runs very quiet and works as expected. I did try it on my rv 13.5k a/c unit, but the breaker tripped immediately. I'm still satisfied to use it just for the fan and charging system.
Pros: Easy starting, much quieter than old 3500 genset
I own a 31 Acres property with several outbuildings in constant need of maintenance. My full size generator is not easy to move around and frankly overkill in most instances. I love this little unit. First pull start and luggable. Surely Your Engineers can Come-up with a fuel gauge so I don't have to Guess.
