Generator is just as expected. Performs well and looks fantastic. As of this post, I've experienced zero issues with the generator. It was simple to assemble. the only downside is that it is very heavy if you need to lift onto trucks for transport, but that is expected.
We live in Fla. bought this generator for backup to replace 23 year old unit of half its size. Electric start and operation on propane were features that helped me make this choice. Hooked it up and started the 5 hour break in period the manual said not to laod more than half load and to vary load for first 5 hours. Tried to vary the load by doing things that strained the old generator like running the microwave which is about a 1000w laod it didn’t even fade this one. So I disconnected one of the 4500w elements in my electric water heater and flipped on the breaker and could tell it put a load on it. Plan on doing this when using it for backup power so as not to strain the unit to its max. Preformed perfect it runs the rest of the normal things in the house with no problems runs window acunits with no strain. Will try the central ac unit after breaking. Impressive so far. Hope it lasts as long as my old unit witch I am confident it will
Bought this last month not knowing if I'd done the right thing, gotten the right one for our home! Answer is yes! Easy to put together and he is ready to go! Great value!
I bought this generator because I needed one with more power. I have only used it about an hour but it worked great. It is actually a smaller frame than my other one so it can easily go through my 30 inch door.
