Bought this to replace an older, smaller unit. This will take on everything in my house that I want. I like the design of this generator. It looks like it will be easy to do maintenance on it. Well pleased with it.
Yes, it's a bit heavy but still very manageable. I live in Florida and keep it in the garage for hurricane emergencies. To get to the lanai (caged pool area) I bring it thru the house using 5" high portable curb ramps to get up over and down thresholds. Much easier than going thru the yard. Also had a 10 circuit transfer switch installed which will also power a portable a/c unit in master bedroom. Generator runs like a champ!
