I haven't used it yet but I'm prepared for this years hurricane. There are a couple of things that I'm excited about on this generator. First, It's a push button start or key fob. As a back up it does have the manual pull start. That I hope that I never have to use .At my age, pull start is just to difficult. Second, is that it is dual fuel. I love that fact that it runs of propane. That makes storing it so much easier not having to drain gasoline out of it. The instruction manual is very detailed. This is my first portable generator. I feel confident that I can run it properly.
Glad I bought this. I need it for Houston. About to power it up for the hurricane. It is large and heavy, and doing the extra delivery help is probably a good idea. It requires a large-ish storage area but once it’s on the wheels it’s quite easy to maneuver.
I just purchased this generator and am very happy with it so far. It has so many features for the price. While shopping for a generator, this one was just such a good value, I couldn’t resist.
Researched a lot before I purchased this unit, it has all the important features.1. Name brand, 2. dual fuel, 3. electric start with remote start, 4. 50A outlet so it can plugged into a whole house system, 5. digital display, 6.low oil shut off, 6. overload shut off, 7. CO shut off. This generator will power my 3.5 ton Trane a/c 5200w, refrigerator 800w, TV 500w, modem, and lights 100w. An electrician will install the 50A outlet and whole house surge protector. I have only done test runs on this unit, but it seems to run well. My neighbor has owned several generators, he is jealous, so I guess that I picked a good unit.
Just got this yesterday, reviews were very good. Easy to assemble with good instructions and the oil necessary for the engine. Bought it to power our house if the power goes out, and the convenience of multi fuel is a bonus. Remote start works great, and will be handy during bad weather.
