I have a Whole House Generator that is heavy, loud, and cumbersome. I wanted to get a smaller Generator to use for the 'usually' short periods of time that out power is out. I'm very impressed with my WGen3600v. After adding the supplied Lube Oil and Gas, the Generator started on the first pull. It's quiet and runs everything I need for our short (1 to 3 Hr) Power Outages. It's absolutely perfect for our needs.
Easy starting and not to loud. Also a nice size generator. Suppose to receive cover with this review. Other people said they didn't so I'll update later.
1. Delivery is pretty fast, product was arrived in well packaging.
2. Out of the box, instruction is very thorough and easy to follow; a good advantage is the generator comes with the wheel kit (with antiviberation pads). After unpacking and assemble it together, the generator is ready to use - hassle free.
3. The generator itself is well built, touches and feels durable, design/layout of buttons is perfect! It has the fuel gauge so you don't have to open the cap while it is running to check how much left - it also gives indicating how long it will last with one tank of fuel.
4. Noise level is fine, so far, no cons identified.
I bought this generator last summer in case of emergencies and got it out to test this week before a hurricane. Runs solid and quietly. Small issue though. It took me awhile to start. It for the first time due to turning the choke to the "on" position as the instructions say to when it really needs to be in the middle for it to start. Once I figured that out it was all gravy.
I've had this generator for several months, used it during a snowstorm. No more worrying about lights going out. I got it to keep my freezers and frig. going and if I lose power in the Summer I can keep a 110 AC going. Glad I bought it.
