It Looks like a well built unit. Heavy, but easy to put together. If only the thing would start. Im an aircraft mechanic, so adding the oil, and connecting the battery are not beyond my skill level. It turns over, but wont hit a lick. doesn't even try to fire off. So much for a thousand dollar investment in home preparedness.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is an excellent generator with lots of power. Runs the whole house including 3 1/2 ton A/C, Electric Range, Refrigerator, all lights and large freezer. Only wish I had bought the Dual Fuel
My wife must have A/C in the heat/humidity we have in south Mississippi. I purchased this generator with the primary goal to run the central air conditioner. This generator easily starts the A/C pulling about 3200w during startup and running about 2500w. I slowly closed breakers and increased the load for the generator to about 8800w and it performed well. Motor and voltage recover quickly with each additional load. I did the recommended break-in for 5-hours varying the load less than 4500w then connected it to the house for the A/C test run. I have not ran the unit beyond this yet. So for so good.
I am very happy with this generator. I love the remote start feature, The many outlet selections up to the 50 amp plug, which we utilize for powering up most of our house. It comes complete with a battery, battery charger, and the exact amount of engine oil needed. even came with a funnel for adding the oil!
It does have great features! 50 amp plug is great!

I had been looking for a generator with the 50 amp plug to run our camper! I think it's going to work great! Also, may use it for a back up for our house! So glad I found it and made the purchase! Very pleased with the generator!
