Received two days ago, easy assembly right out of the box, have only used it to see how it works, how loud it was and was it as good as advertising and ratings showed. Not as loud as I expected, not overbearing. I bought it for house backup, more than enough to handle all my needs. Probably more than what I needed, but it's a beast. Glad I got it
I recently purchased this generator and love the duel fuel feature. Runs good, generally quiet. My add some front wheels that lock for easier movement. Overall good value
I bought the generator during thanksgiving. Good delivery and very easy to setup. Big wind storm heading towards us. Pretty sure that it will take care of our whole house electricity need, if and as required.
It was surprisingly easy to maneuver around given its weight. When on gasoline, it was able to simultaneously power all four heating elements on our electric stove. According to our Sense home energy monitor, it was providing about 8500 watts continuously at the time. The energy monitor did report a frequency of around 62.5 Hz, which is slightly higher than the 60 Hz specification. Hopefully there's some way that can be fine tuned.
The duel fuel is on awesome feature and the remote start will keep me from going out in the cold to start it in the event of a power outage. So far it is working great
