I am surprised on the easy start and has pull to start in case battery is dead. I bought this generator for the natural gas usage when power is out for a few days can't get gasoline. Easy on the fuel consumption. It has great power output it will run everything in my house that I need in an emergency situation.
I just purchased this generator and am amazed by the price and all you get for this unit. I bought this one because of the dual fuel option, plus electric start with remote control and how much power it has. Planning on installing a transfer switch but for now, will use whenever we have a power failure and looking to power most of my house.
Great product, easy to assemble wheels and stand. Adding oil was easy, it even came with a funnel. Every thing is clearly labeled. Added gas and powered up, ran the entire downstairs and powered up my 2 ton A/C.
I just received this generator to use as an emergency backup for my home. Once I got it, it was fairly simple to put the wheels on - although it is very heavy to maneuver while doing so. I was able to test it and it started right up after I added oil and connected to propane. Good looking until and well built. Slightly worried about that the power it produces will not be "clean" enough to charge my laptops or power a TV without risk of damage. Time will tell. Overall, happy with the features and love that it's dual fuel.
Generator operated as advertised. As an experiment, was able to power home A/C, washing machine, hot water heater, kitchen refrigerator, wine and beverage coolers, and assorted lights with only momentary hesitation in RPM. Propane consumption rate was higher than expected, but considering the wattage requested for the experiment, it was not unusual. Delivered without damage. Started on first press of remote button. Instructions were understandable.
