Not what we expected
on June 8, 2018
Posted by: 4plantes
from Candia NH
It was easy to setup and get started. Not nearly as quiet as expected, has a massive amount of vibration. We ran it in the driveway for awhile my husband said it doesn't sound like it is idling down properly. We don't have any camping trips planned till August this was bought for our new 34 ft travel trailer. We plan to do some remote camping with it just hope it runs our a/c and isn't too noisy. Also really disappointed that we couldn't get the cover for it as a bonus gift for leaving a review website said they were having an issue with supplier and only had the 15 ft power strip available......really would have liked the cover!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The generator works with the pull start, but the electric and remote start do not work at all. Very disappointed that I received this new generator and it was not working properly.

Great generator

Powerful, very quiet and very fuel efficient. My only complaint would be that it should come with an extension tube for the oil fill/drain. Trying to use the funnel like it says in the manual to drain oil is a nightmare.

Quiet & efficient

This is a beast of a generator that is extremely efficient, is super quiet and starts/runs reliably. Love the remote start! The control panel is well laid out and is feature rich. Looking forward to using this little baby at my off-grid camp.
I would recommend this to a friend!

As advertised

Followed set up directions. Started on the 1st pull, push start, and remote. Tested for a short while on rv. Ran one 15k ac but not two at same time. I am near 5500' right now in Sd. I will test more in a few weeks as I have a week long boondock camping trip planned. Plastic housing on unit fits poorly in a couple areas. RV plug still installed upside down as in previous reviews.
I would recommend this to a friend!
