Propane, price, and remote start good, pulsing bad

We use this to charge out batteries in an off grid situation. Now we don't have to deal with gas, or going outside to start and to stop the generator. Had it plumbed to a 250 gallon tank, so we don't have to deal with portable propane tanks either. Had to have 10 PSI from the tank to the generator shed, then used a normal low pressure (11in water column) regulator from there to the generator. Works fine generally, but pulses/revs for a few minutes on initial start up. Not sure why. Hopefully doesn't lead to major malfunction.
Easy starting, runs appliances I need in tiny home

I love this generator. Love the dual fuel - use mostly propane. The remote start is excellent. I would have given it 5 stars but had to return 2 generators because the motor mounts were broken in transit - twice. But great unit for the price!
Very good generator, but the unpacking instructions could be better. A red sticker says "Remove support brackets from frame before operating." It showed an illustration of an S bracket. There were no other details. It took me a while -- and a call to customer service -- to figure out that they meant. As it turns out, you must remove the 2 RED L brackets on the bottom of the frame.
Seem like a well built generator with plenty of power.

Good generator, but unpacking instructions regarding the removal of the support clamps should be clearer with a few more details, i.e., description should be "Red L clamps at bottom of frame."
I have used this generator at my cabin for two weekends now and it is running good with no problems. The convenience of having a remote start is nice along with running on LP. I was able to get about 6-7 hours on a 20lb tank.
