Bought this unit at the end of last year and haven't touched it until hurricane Isiais knocked out our power for almost a week. Started right up, ran on both LP and gasoline and kept our refrigerators running without issue. Nice selection of outlets, compact size and remote start are all great features.
I’ve only had the generator for about a month now, and so far it powers up consistently, and I’m only using propane so far. Next step is to wire up the house so I can do the real kid testing to see how far I can go with the various appliances. Stay tuned!

I bought this in late July. It came on a wood pallet. Delivery was smooth through a trucking company to my residential home. It was delivered by a truck with a lift gate on the back of the truck on 8.6.2020. It was wheeled up by pallet jack into the garage. I just recently put on the tires and assembled it, followed the instructions with a friend here, battery, oil, etc. to give its first test run on Propane gas, only. On 8.8.20, we fired up without a problem. I ran it for about 40 minutes. I turned it on and off a few times at the end of the run and tried all 3 different start types (button, key fob remote, and the choke), which all worked. So far, so good after 1 week of ownership. So Far So Good. The volume isn't that bad once you get inside the house. You want some distance between the generator when running and the structure or vehicle you would be inside nearby. Time will tell if there are any issues when it is used again.
Impressed with the generator so far. Lots of nice features for the price. Connected a grill tank and it fired right up. Will perform a test run in the next few days but don't expect a problem.
Did 220 interconnect and this unit runs split system AC unit plus 3 refrigerators/freezers and still has plenty of power for lighting, TV. Very pleased so far.
We bought this for our RV and any disaster that may come! It runs great and the fact that you can switch from Propane to fuel is great. We have been remodeling the RV and we have had the Generator Running. It Runs the window Unit AND the Roof unit at the same time, Win Win for us
