After having difficult loading my 4500 watt generator into the back of my Jeep alone, I decided it was time for a portable generator. Many reviewed regard this as a highly recommended product, and I can see why. Started easily with one gentle pull, after an extremely simple unboxing and setup process (Just add oil and gasoline!). This unit is easily moved, has a truly professional appearance (love the blue finish) and is darn quiet. Even at a full load of 1875 watts, I was sitting next to the generator and could have had a conversation with someone. Of course I briefly considered some far more expensive products, like Honda's EU-2000i prior to purchasing this unit at about half the price - however for my price point and intended use, this is a superior product at an excellent price!
I just purchased this last week. Overall seems well built. First start it took ONE pull from the box - great start! Only reason I am not giving it a 5 star: I tried to run my 15 amp small air compressor and it kept tripping....I am assuming my compressor isn't taking more than 15 amps which what it is rated for. Also I would like to see a quick cover to remove to check the oil, rather than taking the large cover off that uses screws.
