I prepared it to start according to the supplied manual. Within 2-3 seconds it started and stabilized perfectly. Very quit as stated in description. Only time will tell, but I think this is a very good product for the money.
Just unboxed it and did the start up of the generator to test it out with my trailer. It works great and is quiet. Only thing I had a problem with was the gave me the “exact” amount of oil so I poured it all in. Now I have a oil puddle on my driveway because it overfilled it so be prepared and have rags available or fill slowly and check as you go.
