I’m very happy with this purchase. I was looking for a reliable back up generator in case of power outages and this one runs all of the essential elements of my house without an issue. I’ve found that it’s more reliable to use the pull rope instead of the electric push button starter, but that may be because I only use it occasionally as a backup instead of using regularly. As with any machine - read the manual and follow the directions to ensure it operates properly.
I bought this product for my husband for his at home projects and it’s wonderful. He enjoys powering different equipment and I enjoy it as well. I would recommend this generator for everyone for its power outlet, features and price.
Easy setup after generator arrived. Added oil and gas and it fired right up with the electric starter (the remote control start/stop is a nice touch}. Power was a steady 122/244 volts at 61 HZ. The power meter built into the unit seems accurate compared to my meter. Haven't used it for an outage yet, but I have no reason to doubt its quality.
Given the overall great reviews everywhere online, the price and features, I decided to purchase this generator and can safely say that it is the best bang for the buck. However, I am surprised to say that this generator is as well, if not better built than other brands priced higher. Totally worth the price!
We bought this after a 98 hour power outage and are sp happy to have made this investment! It's easy to start, easy to use and will save us $$ in the long run
