We live in an area that doesn’t usually lose power and bought this for the “just in case” scenario. My husband and I both are glad we did! It has served us well so far and would definitely recommend to family and friends!
Bought a week or so ago and it is working well. Easy to assemble and get running. Performing good so far. Will get a true test soon I’m sure here in Oklahoma. Seems to be well worth the cost.
Generator easy to set up BUT on initial start up directions are not clear on a couple things. First, on/fuel lever location not indicated—took awhile to find and get fuel to engine, also not identified in user manual. Second, battery hook-up cable is hidden under top of generator and although it is outlined in owners manual took time to find and connect. Other than that great, started up as soon as all connections were in place, electric FOB start saves back and perspiration, neighbor and I want to starts up before hurricane season, he has a 7500 watt Firman, only recoil start—he is still trying to get started my has been running 1/2 hour.
I bought this due to an extended power outage. Set it up and filled with gas, and it fired right up with the electric start. We put about 35 hours on it. The only downside is it is rather loud.
