Unboxed and checked for damage, everything seems to be OK. Assembled the handle and wheels very easy. Owners manual instructions are very easy to understand. Fuel, oil and connected the battery and started on the 3rd try with electric start. Display works shows 244 v. When I plugged a circular saw in the ground fault plugs it wouldn't run. Upon inspection the reset between the 2 plugs on each were tripped. Reset and the saw works on all the receptacles. Haven't tried the 30 or 5p amp yet. Ran for 5 hrs and used the saw to put a load on it on and off. Now planning on changing and replacing the oil with 5w30 synthetic. Very happy so far as I started it several times after getting the 5hr run and it started right up. Put stabilizer in the fuel also. Will try it with propane later
I bought this 2 months ago and had to use it yesterday during a 12 hour power outage. It was easy to assemble and operate, with straight forward instructions and simple control panel. On a full tank, it ran over 8 hours straight and powered most of the essential electronics in our house, including 5 space heaters, lamps, fridges, TVs, and the internet. It worked flawlessly.
