Good design

from Hickory, NC
Worked well right out of the box. Used as a rural house backup generator: 3500 sq.ft., 1 hp well pump, 1/2 hp septic pump and 5 ton heat pump. Handled the electrical loads with some minor dipping of voltage. Used only propane only so far.
Opportunities for improvement:
1. Instructions on how to use the battery charger. There is a light on the plug-in charger that is red when charging and turns green when charged.
2. Reroute the battery wiring away from the oil dip stick
3. Relocate the battery so the wheel does not have to be removed for battery replacement
4. Improve muffler/housing to reduce noise

Easy start!

I've had this generator for a while now and haven't needed to use it much but when I do, it is reliably ready. I love the dual fuel option and easy push start feature. The generator runs practically the whole house when needed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Couldn’t be happier

Saved us during a winter storm. My wife wanted to make sure her freezer stock of breast milk would survive if we lost power. Sure enough, we did, and this pulled through!

I purchased this Generator back on Jan. 12 - 2025 , placed it in my utility building , never opened it until today , ( 01/24/2026 . I was unaware of the Free cover offer until today and I hope that I can still get the free cover. Also, I am aware that any / all warranty items began the day I purchased it . I have not yet assembled and can not evaluate it yet .
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
