Awesome product, packaged well, started right up, keyless remote, what an awesome Idea. runs quieter than I thought. Much nicer than previous generator. will highly recomend.
This is a great generator. It will power most of my 2436 sq ft home. I could not find one with these features at this price. Shipping was excellent and received in 3 days. I am not ready for a hurricane.
I just revived this item and was shocked on the size compared to my old one which is half the power, every way to turn on worked flawless, just added less than a quarter tank of gas to get it going and has not stopped running for a while
I bought this based on the numerous 5 Star Reviews and was not disappointed. The generator started up on the second try and performed as expected. There was one small dent on one of the braces and the cap on the quart container of oil was not tight and leaked.
I recently bought this generator. I am very pleased how quiet this generator is for it's size! Plenty of power to run my 300 foot deep well and other appliances during power outages. I never thought I'd need a remote start device, however now that I have it I wonder how I got along without one. I feel so much safer now that I have no need to touch the generator frame to start up if/when I have to roll it outside on the wet ground after raining. I love the smart panel design and blue color. If I could rate this generator higher than 5 stars I would. Great job guys!!! Love it!
Caveat...I have only assembled and started the generator. I have not yet needed to plug it in. That being said, the engine started easily, once I found and turned on the choke. It was more quiet than smaller generators I have used in the past. The electric and remote starts are great features as are the dual fuel capability, especially when a hurricane hits and gasoline is scarce. While waiting for your generator to arrive (mine took two weeks, Dorian came and went), I would suggest picking up a quart of 10W30 four-stroke motor oil. Although the unit comes with one quart, it needed approximately 1.3 quarts to get the oil level to the middle of the dip-stick.
