Initial Impression- Great! Time will tell...

Ran it for a couple of hours and connected different items to it. Responded well. Some very slight surging in rpm's under a steady load. No big deal but will keep an eye on it. Display codes to identify what is being displayed do not all match manual, but you can figure it out easily enough. In my opinion, it would be much better to display the power draw in Watts rather than Kilowatts, but again, a minor thing. Tried shutting it down after running it for a couple of hours, then restarted. As I've seen in some other reviews, it did not restart as easily as a warmed-up engine should. Took a number of pulls and trying choke versus no choke. Maybe just have to figure out the right combination, but that issue could be annoying if I don't figure out the right combination. After allowing to cool down, restarted on the first pull. Being from the U.S., I would prefer the Fuel Level to be displayed in quarts or tenths of a gallon, but the visual fuel gage mostly makes that a non-issue (and it is a minor thing anyway). So overall, with my minor nitpicking, I still give it 5 stars as my initial reaction. How it holds up, hopefully over many years, will tell the final story. Also, the ultimate test will be a power failure when I see how it handles things. (I know it is not a whole-house generator. I mean using it appropriately, but under extended times of heavy load)

Easy setup and thoughtful design

So far very impressed with this generator. I bought it as a backup generator to keep my fridge running when the power goes out. Setup was easy. Added the included oil and my fuel and she is up and running. I'm doing the 5 hour break-in period letting it run with light loads but all is good so far. I noticed some very thoughtfully designed features such as the fuel bell drain hose. All in all, very impressed so far.
