[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Learned of the brand thru Mike's Weather Page. Perfect size and power to keep a freezer going during an extended loss of power. Unit costs less than replacing a freezer full of food. #sweepstakes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Added oil. Filled with fuel. Followed instructions and it started on 1st pull. Ran well for the 1st 5 hours. Changed oil and it still starts on 1st pull. Waiting to see how it works under a full real load.

Saved the day

I have had the 2100W generator for about 3 years now, I originally bought it as a emergency backup in case we lost power. This winter a major storm rolled through, with a wind chill of -47 C and we lost power. I fired up the generator for the pellet stove, and it ran perfectly for 23 hours keeping the house warm. I had a couple lights hooked up to the unit, the pellet stove, and was charging cell iphones or power banks, and the generator rpm stayed at idle speed, barely using any fuel. It stepped up and saved the day until power was restored. Great quality product and I highly recommend !

For backup during power failure. More power would be better though, but this is suffice.

I bought this W01781 genset from Princess Auto Canada in the surplus section. It was a return. After storing it for a year it wouldn't idle. Suspected car had jelled gasoline. Ordered a replacement carb and installed today. Fired right up and idled correctly. Presently using to try to charge my truck battery. Will update if I can with results
Pros: Customer service
I would recommend this to a friend!
