Meets all needs
on February 27, 2023

This generator came in last week. I put it together, added oil, connected battery and added gasoline. I opened the gas line, flipped the switch on the battery and pressed the start button. It took 3 start tries (probably to fill the gas line) and started running. Runs smooth and seems like it will meet and exceed our needs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Well-made generator. Comes with all accessories required to put it together and to perform minor maintenance items (wrench, oil, spark plug socket, battery minder/float charger). What more do you need! Once generator is all put together, battery connected and fuel/oil added it was time to start. REMINDER HERE: TURN ON FUEL, TURN ON BATTERY SWITCH. Once that was accomplished pushed start button, when light came on released pressing and after two cranking cycles generator fired right up. Connected load, turn on breakers and...NOTHING. WHAT?? Let me see, oh yeah the outlets are GFCI so pushed reset button on outlet and VOILA, POWER SUPPLIED.
Sound level is comparable to or even lower than older 5500 generator I have. Engine runs smooth and due to rubber engine mounts very minimum vibration noted.
So far this generator is well made, runs great and supplies electricity as required. Easy to transport and maneuver by integrated handle. Great buy!
HINTS: Open box, pull out booklet package, pull out cardboard accessory box, cut box down corners). Open accessory bag for bolts, brackets, wheels, etc. and set aside 10 minutes or less to assemble. Gather one side set of wheel and foot accessories, tip generator to one side and install. (Easier if two people do this but I did it with no issues at all by myself.) Repeat for other side. Add supplied oil, (REPEAT; add supplied oil), connect battery quick disconnect, add fuel and she is ready to go.

Great experience

Ease of order, and caught it on sale. The shipping experience was wonderful, and the "uncrating" was a breeze. It came on a pallet, strapped down and the guys thatt delivered it were great. Finished assembly with the detailed instructions, and threw the included oil in. So far, so good. Will fire it up next weekend when I purchase a propane bottle for it.
Based on the reviews, I dont see a problem with the build.....happy to have it for this coming storm season.
