Almost perfect.

Set up instructions were clear and concise. Packaging was solid. Dialing in the correct oil level was somewhat tedious because of it previously being test run with oil at the factory. Residual oil in the motor resulted in only partial use of the otherwise exact quantity of included bottled of oil. Connected the battery and propane it fired right up an flawlessly powered through its break-in hours. My only gripes are it not having an OEM quick disconnect set up for the propane and the short propane hose. I very nearly went with a Champion for the quick disconnect feature. Only other suggestion is to move the rolling handle set up so it lifts from the top of the unit which would make deployment of the handle much more efficient.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought this generator and was very pleased to see all the nice things that was said about this product were true. very surprised on how less noisy this generator is compared to the ones I hear in my neighborhood. I have a Samsung refrigerator that didn’t like the previous generator, but with this generator, it worked like it was the normal electricity. I am confident this generator will perform very well.

I purchased this inverter/generator to primarily power the AC on my trailer while dry camping however the inverter allows me to power my other electronics. I've only had it a few days, but I have been running it to get through the break in period as I will be leaving on a trip shortly. I have been through the instruction manual and found it easy to understand. It has remote start and the pairing instructions were simple. It also came with a trickle charger, for the starting battery, while in storage. I wasn't expecting it with the purchase, I called to confirm it's function as I didn't find an explanation in the manual or missed it. Very pleased with the product and service thus far.

Dual-Fuel Inverter Generator review
on April 26, 2024
Posted by: Duke7777
from Monroeville, PA
I bought this generator for emergency back-up & to power my Makita electric chainsaw when removing dead & unwanted trees. I used it for a week to cut down dead & unwanted trees from 6-20" in diameter with a corded Makita 16" chainsaw. The generator functioned flawlessly, is very quiet, starts easily, & the remote eliminates a lot of walking back & forth to turn it on/off. The extendable handle is a nice feature but feels flimsy when pulling the generator to different sites in a bumpy acre lot for tree cutting.

What a crap generator...

We got this as a Christmas present and so far it's been nothing but trouble.
Leaks propane, so cold blooded it takes literally 20 minutes to start in freezing temps, doesn't start period on propane, and now it's just... Died.
Would not recommend!

It is quieter than expected. I like the battery charge feature and that it has a CO2 detector built in. Can't wait to try it out on the RV.
