Runs nicely. I use it to power a 30 foot camper with a 13,500 BTU air conditioner. I did 3 oil changes in the first 10 hours to get out the break in debris, and I changed the plug to an NGK. Have been running Amsoil small engine 10w-30 since then, changing every 50 hours. Only used non ethanol fuel with a bit of seafoam in it. Other reviews say that it doesn't charge it's own battery, but it certainly must as I've never plugged it in and it's never dead. It always starts easily, even on very cold days. I've started it as low as -28 with no problems. The remote that originally came with it failed within the first couple of weeks, but Firman fedex'd me a new one immediately. It has 200 hours on it now and is going strong. Does not use any oil at all between changes. I have multiple other generators, and this is definitely the quietest of them. I replaced the Phillips head bolts that hold on the rear cover with wing bolts for easier access. The spark arrestor was quite plugged around 50 hours, but was easy to clean and hasn't plugged up or had any carbon on it since then. Air filter access is also easy. Now for the negative stuff... A few times it has revved itself up far beyond what it is designed to do, and I had to shut it down immediately to prevent engine damage. The customer service at Firman sent me a new carburetor to solve that issue although I have not installed it yet. I suspect that will solve the problem. The wheels are too small in my opinion. A large wheel option would be nice. Overall it's a good buy. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this brand again.

So far I do like this generator, it is extremely quiet, I love the remote start. Just trying to figure out why it won't run my entire trailer from the RV outlet. My old generator runs the trailer no problem.

We just got back from the White Mountains in Arizona. I used the generator for the first time dry camping with our 26' travel trailer. Each time, the generator started right up and worked very well. I charged the batteries and used the hot water heater which draws a lot of amps. It was fairly quiet compared to smaller units around us and we were very happy about that.

I bought this generator to use with my 5th. It has performed flawlessly. I needed to replace a part and the "on line" support was great! Part was replaced under warrantee and was sent in a timely manner. Very happy!

The firman inverter is easy to use after following instructions. It starts easily and has easy shut offs. The oil isn't too challenging to change however, it is the only downfall for this product in my opinion. I'd rather it have easier access instead of stationed behind a screwed panel. I'd still recommend this gen
