We live rural in MI. Storms have been bad this year. We ordered this generator on the advise of our electrician installing a transfer switch for us. Glad we did. Right out of the crate it started up and then ran for several days while power was out. No problems
Great generator which works on gasoline or propane. Easy to set-up. You'll have to perform some maintenance on it if you're using it, but those instructions seem straightforward.
Bought last fall and sure enough ice storm in March knocked out our power . I have a very active sump pump was was running every 7 minutes. Hooked up generator to my hydrometer and I had instant peace of mind. Plus the comfort of running the furnace and two fridges , freezer, and other amenities!!!
I have not had a chance to use it yet, but it did fire right up. It’s a very heavy unit and it was a great value from Sam’s Club. Hopefully it’ll power my whole house.
