The Smart Transfer Switch sold me on this unit, also like the remote start. The dual fuel is a big plus, I will probably just use it on propane but being able to use gas is great incase one or the other is unavailable. This unit is a good solution to keep the essentials running in case of an extended power outage.
I picked up the generator, was easy to set up. Needed more oil than came with it by just a little. Started up fine with electric start and remote. Have not tried it on propane yet. We purchased this to run part of our house as we live in a rural area that looses power in winter at times. So far very happy.
RECEIVED TWO WEEKS AGO. UNPACKING/READING QUICK START AND ASSEMBLY TOOK ABOUT 1 HOUR. FILLED WITH OIL (INCLUDED). ADDED PREMIUM GAS. CONNECTED PROPANE TANK. CHARGED BATTERY WITH UNIT THAT IS INCLUDED. TURNED FUEL VALVE ON. STARTED ON FIRST CRANK WITH GAS. SELECTED PROPANE. TOOK SEVERAL CRANKS WITH PROPANE. RAN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. BOUGHT L-SHAPED ELBOW FIXTURE FOR PROPANE CONNECTION. ALL READY FOR BACKUP WHEN THE NEXT POWER OUTAGE OCCURS.
I just purchased this generator and I am very happy with the unit. The setup was easy and the generator started and ran with no issues. The features on the control panel and the quick start instructions are easy to understand.
