Great generator
on February 8, 2022

Bought this generator the day after we got power back. We were without power for 7 days and said we won't be without power again. We figured we needed bare necessities to survive but the fuel consumption (approx. .55gph or .67gallons of propane per hour) is the same as smaller generators (5kw generators). So for a little additional upfront cost to get the bigger 9500w you can have all the power you could want while using the same amount of fuel and know you will never be underpowered. Also got the dual fuel because we found during an emergency gasoline is hard to find and you can run a grill propane bottle for about 7hours which will buy you some time for gasoline to become available to switch back to. The generator will scare you because you will push the start button and it cranks for a long time and sometimes you have to push start again for another cranking cycle but I guess that is just a characteristic of this generator. It has always started it just cranks for a long time before it fires up. Once it is running it is quiet and the wheel/handle kit is great for moving it around! Great purchase, I feel so prepared for any storm now.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We just received and so far everything looks great. The product was delivered nicely and in perfect condition. It is loud but as expected. The product is easy to move for my husband. Turned on and powered up. Just waiting to give it a whole house test once our subpanel is installed. So far so good, five stars.

As advertised

Watched a lot of YouTube and decided this was the way to go. It was 10 degrees when it arrived. I prepped it per instructions in the unseated garage. Took it outside hooked up propane and it fired right up. Just like on all the YouTube videos.
Home hook up is almost done, still cold. I should be able to test it this weekend, in the cold.

Easy to start, runs great on LP

Purchased this as a backup generator. Wanted one that would store without fuel in the tank. Ran it for several hours on propane without a problem. Starts easy. Remote seems like a gimmick to me, the battery switch must be on to use it, will probably never get used.
Had to get this before my liberal governor banned them entirely.
I would recommend this to a friend!
