Very Quiet, worked flawless out of the box.

Bought to replace a loud generator and was not disappointed by how quietly it ran. Also had no issues getting it to work out of the box. I'm currently at about 40 hours and have had no problems thus far.
Started easily by cord. button, or remote. Loaded with Shop vac, saw and iron (simultaneously) during break-in. No problems. Changed oil after one hour and two hours as precaution to remove any machining debris, since no oil filter. Appreciate info display and quiet operation.
Bought for my father because of the remote start. He is 81 and I didn’t want him having to walk back and forth to generator. Starting works great. Stopping - you have to be pretty close to it.
I researched generators for a long time before making my decision. I am really happy I did. The more I read, the more this make and model stood out to me as the one to get. That decision was reinforced by it going out of stock as soon as it became available at all distributors. Like many others, I am anxious for the power to go out again.
