I received this earlier this week and was able to unbox it and get it set up and tested today. Everything was included as promised including the wheel kit and oil. It started right up and ran perfectly. I bought this to run my deep Edwards well and our pressure pump and tested it out this afternoon and everything worked fine. I kicked myself for not being prepared for our recent outages but I am ready for next time.

Easiest setup! Instructions are excellent. Cranks right up. Remote start is amazing. Machine is heavy but with the wheels and handle moving it is a cinch.

Well Built Unit With Excellent Features
on February 27, 2021

I bought this unit a little over a month ago now. I installed a 50Amp Outlet on the exterior of my home and a 50 Amp breaker with a mechanical interlock with the main breaker. This has proven to be a really good solution at a substantially lower cost than a standby unit. Yes, I have to flip a couple breakers and roll the unit out my garage and plug it in but that about it. As infrequent power losses are, this is more than adequate for me. The remote start is awesome. I use it to start the unit after it plugged in and I have flipped the breakers in my breaker panel. It’s nice that you can shut the unit down to conserve fuel at night or when you leave and start and stop it suing the remote. Really a great idea. The solid tires are a really good move as well. I have used units with air filled tires before and they leak and it makes it very very difficult to move them. The one thing I would like to be different is the location of the 50A outlet on the unit would be for that outlet to be in a different spot, swapped with one of the other outlets. The issue is, the 50A outlet is located on the far right directly above the highest point of the wheel. This creates an obstruction to the natural position of the heavy 50A cable needed to connect to this outlet on the generator. (See attached photo) All of the other outlets require a much lighter duty cable, due to their lower power levels, therefore it would be much better to have one of those (perhaps the 120 vac outlets) above the wheel. It was quite difficult to manipulate the cable to use this outlet with a bottom exit cable which is the most common and safest solution in the event of rain, etc. I gave the unit a 4 Star rating specifically because of this design shortfall. If a 4.5 options was available, I would have selected it. If it wasn’t for this, I would have given a 5 star without a doubt.
I would recommend this to a friend!
