We bought this to use on our 2016 Springdale camper went with a 4500 needed the extra for the air-conditioning kicking on and off works great it is so quiet you can’t even hear it when you’re inside the camper at night and the energy saver mode is the most saves on fuel five stars
Bought this for my boat and I continually get comments about how quiet it is, which is very important when you are out in nature. Had a little trouble at first with one of the internal gears sticking but it hasn't been a problem since. Also, it only shuts off when I turn off the fuel which takes a few minutes but is not an issue. I like how solid it is and doesn't take up a lot of space.
I purchased this inverter generator in winter, due to occasional power outages. Never used it or even set it up. Summer storms now creating uncertain conditions, so today I removed it from the box, and garage to get it ready to use. The setup was easy, the directions clear and (perhaps overly) comprehensive regarding safety and disclaimers. However, once I connected the battery, added oil and fuel, it started easily, both the automatic start button and remote control. This generator is good looking and I am impressed by how quiet it is (the reason to buy inverter type). So far, so good. Looking like a summer storm, so if I need to use it soon, I will update my rating, if appropriate.
I bought this for my wife to use for her horse trailer where I do no go with her, thus am not there to pull start a normal generator. She Loves the remote control start/stop button. Been having some recent trouble with the generator, but have found the service technician to be amazingly helpful in solving my problem. They want happy customers.
