I just got this thing and couldn't resist unboxing it immediately! The thing turned right over with just a push of a button. No need to adjust the choke! It fired right up and sounded fairly quiet considering the large 457cc engine.
I just purchased this product and have not had a chance to run it yet. However during assembly, installing the feet to the frame one of the welded bolts were not aligned properly with the hole on the frame. I had to screw the bolt in from the back side, and bore out the hole a bit on the frame. This allowed me to bolt it from the feet mounting side, however it did strip the bold a bit. Besides that the overall quality looks good.
