Just bought this generator on May 19 and was delivered to my house on May 22 open it up read the manual easy to follow look forward to the electrician putting in a flip switch. There was no damage to the product package nicely thank you.
I wanted to be able to power critical components in my house and garage including two (2) freezers and my refrigerator as well as lights, fans, well, TV. I fired up the generator with no issues. The push-start is so much better than having to hand-crank. Surprisingly, the generator is not as loud as I expected it. My older 5200W aftermarket generator seems twice as loud. I tested connectivity to my house today and all devices worked great. I was even able to use the microwave. The only exception were the two (2) UPS connected to my TV and network devices. Even after adjusting sensitivity on these UPS, they still don't like being on generator power and switch back-and-forth between generator power and battery power. I understand an inverter generator is needed for this type of equipment.
Overall, I feel very well prepared that I won't have to sit in the dark during hurricane season. I'm very glad I purchased this product.
