Bought this for a backup electric source for camping trips. Works great and alleviates concern of the primary camper battery constantly failing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quiet

I appreciate how quiet it is for the size and the built-in handle and wheels makes it easy to move around. We purchased this to run a portable AC unit and refrigerator in our house as a backup power source. Being able to run with propane is a huge benefit since propane is a stable fuel and can be stored much longer than modern gas with ethanol.

Love this Generator

My generator arrived yesterday. It was well packaged. and shipped without any damage. After adding the oil and fuel I tested out all the features and it performed fantastically! I got this one because of the electric start and remote start features. My wife can now start it up without me having to be there. I also like the fact that it has the built in wheels and handle that extends out to move it about in the garage. It is a bit heavy but weel worth it because of all the features. It has the propane fuel feature as well. I will try that out later but it's good to know I can use an alternate fuel source!! I hope to be using this unit in power outage situations as well. I think it's a great addition to my power needs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good

Got it today. In process of filling oil dropped dipstick and it fell down under the floor panel. Because i’d added oil it made it way more difficut as tilting it would have lex to oil gushing out if the dipstick hole.
Took a plumbing camera a lond of long curved hemostats and an hour of fiddling to retrieve it. The oil fill/change system is this thing’s achilles heel.
Definitely not looking forward to the first oil change.
Once that was done on to the propane. The regulator assembly is super big and a but clunky to have hanging off the bottle with its weight riding on the connection.
Propane line is very short, necessitating keeping the bottle right next to the gennie.
Operationally it was fine. Started right up, ran for 5 hours powering a big fan and an rv converter with occasional a/c unit power which is ultimately the reason for the purchase.
And for that it appears it’ll do just fine.
Will update when its got some hours on it of real world use.
Thys far though it’s better than the pair of paralled Ryobi’s its replacing. They would often struggle just to light off the a/c unit, let alone anything else. While I cant fire up both the 13,500 and the 10,200 a/c’s (as least on propane) it does handle the big one woth biatloads of breathing room.
Much quieter than the ryobi’s were as well.

I just bought this unit to be used on propane, took 5 minutes to fire this unit and works fine even with the remote. Great, will use it on my RV. I pick this unit compare to many others for the low DB as for the power.
I would recommend this to a friend!
