Bought this after a recent hurricane extended power outages to be ready for the next one. Quiet, compact, portable, decent output and simple to operate. Only one minor issue on initial set-up.The engine cover had one screw installed so tight from the factory I stripped the head trying to remove it. Had to drill it out to remove and install a new nut insert and bolt.
Bought this generator for the sound level and maneuverability. It weighs just under a hundred pounds and I can load and unload this without any help. Have no issues with the unit at all. Added oil & gas, connected the battery and started it up. Done.
I purchased in August 2021 to augment my on board rv generator that was having issues (1997 generac). I plan on using in camp for hunting. I have been using over a month now and this unit was the talk in camp. One guy had the honda 3000 and was considering selling his and buying this unit. It has remote start, more powerful, just as quiet and comes with wheels, that the honda did not. I am at the 23 hr point and am changing the oil today (recommended is 25 hrs-close enough). I did put on the high altitude kit because I use it at 7000 ft. Runs awesome. The kit was a bit of a pain to put on. Could not find a good westinghouse video for installation of the high altitude kit. Onan has a good video and the units are nearly identical. Onan costs about 20-25% more.
