Extremely easy to start up and setup! I went with the 'DF' bc I didn't want the CO sensor shutting off the generator as I keep it outside behind the garage away from any windows. Love this generator so far.
We are new to Michigan and random sudden power outages from wind and tornados. We got this generator so that we could run a majority of the things in our home in a power outage without having to install a whole house generator. This was our first time using a generator and it was easy to set up and use, following the quick step guide. We used it with gasoline and found we could get about 11 hours of power off a full tank. It easily powered 2 full sized refrigerators, water pump, many lights, charging devices, and intermittent usage of things like blender, microwave, and coffee maker. We used it for 3 straight days until power was restored and we were thankful we had it! Worth the purchase.
Delivered this morning in good shape. Attached the wheels & feet, and added oil (included). The tool kit included a spark plug wrench and a very handy oil fill funnel.
Attached the propane tank, switched the fuel lever and the generator started right up and ran well for my five minute break in period. Very nice system. Looking forward to remote start when the power goes out next time.
