Very nice stable speed, quick recovery and solid!

I have put about 20 hours on the genset and it purrs like a kitten. Great governor (for such an inexpensive generator set) and it's very quick to restabilize during swinging loads.
The documentation for the unit is clear and concise, very well written (something sorely lacking with most merchandise these days!)
I use this for my camper which has the 120VAC 30A circuit. Since the generator is 120VAC (not 120/240) it's a perfect fit. Runs the rooftoop AC unit, water heater, microwave and other basic plug-in style items with no problems whatsoever.
When used with a circuit monitor/protector (one that monitors for 8-30 seconds before closing an internal breaker that connects the camper to shore power) the remote start/stop feature is extremely convenient! It ensures the generator does not try to start under load, saving the time and hassle of disconnecting this and that each time you want to start the generator.
The shutdown sequence appears to be about 5 seconds, not 15 seconds. I would prefer it run for 30 but that's just my opinion. It's great that it has a delay at all.

It would be a better value if they could include a propane quick connect feature instead of the typical threaded connection but this is a very minor setback.
A primary voltage/current/hz monitor would be nice as well, even if it were available as an option.
Overall I wish I'd have purchased this unit years ago. It's been a pleasure to have!

Love this little generator

Bought this for backup power for our home as well as for doing some odd jobs away from the house. Works great and plenty of power. Only negative is it is a little heavier than I had hoped, but power and ease of use make up for it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very nice piece of equipment

Purchased this generator for the dual fuel aspect, the hours per gallon of fuel ratio and quieter running engine. I was not disappointed. The dual fuel is great and works as it should. I haven't been able to test the hours of run time yet, but trust from reading other reviews that it is as good as it says. I was pleasantly surprised by how much quieter it runs compared to the generator that I used to own. Attaching wheels and filling with oil was a breeze and the remote start works great. Very nice product.

I purchased this generator because we kept having power outages. Thank goodness! The power went out for 18 hours this time. Saved my food in the refrigerator! One of the best purchased I have made.
