Purchased to use as a standby system for home. Assembly was easy, started easily with push-button feature and remote. Have not had an opportunity to use for powering house but satisfied with product to date.
I live out in the woods and needed a backup generator for frequent power outages. This unit is awesome. Easy to start with no hesitations. When the power goes out, this unit has it back up and running in minutes. The 9500 running watts is more than enough power for the essentials.
I just purchased this today and after the assembly I put gas in it and it fired right up. The only negative thing I can say is it was missing one bolt for the mounting foot besides that it looks great and runs great.
I live in South Florida and wanted something large enough to power my central AC, fridge etc during hurricane season. Last year I had an electrician install a 50A outlet outside so I could just connect the generator to that one outlet and power the whole house. It was astonishing to me how may generators of this size only offer 30A and not 50A outlets.
That is what ultimately led me to this model. I bought it back in Oct, but that was the end of hurricane season, so it sat in my garage unboxed until today because I’ve had so many other pressing home projects. This weekend was project free so figured I better inbox this and make sure it runs.
The set up was super easy, tip to it side, connect feet and wheels, add oil (which is provided in the box), add gas, connect battery, turn fuel Valve to on, turn electric on, hit start on the remote (a generator with a remote start is so cool, so had to use the remote). Hit the start button on the remote and it cranked twice but didn’t start (of course this is expected due to the fact that the carburetor was bone dry). Cool thing is, it re-tried starting again without me hitting the button and stated right up, ran like a champ for 20 min with no issues.
It comes with a battery charger that plugs right into the panel, has a fuel gauge and electric meter that monitors voltage, run time, etc.
I love everything about this generator, easy to assemble and use, 12,500W peak and 9500W continuous power and a 50A connection, have no doubt that this will power all the household essentials when that big storm hits
