Still Evaluating

The quick start guide is in error in the very first step. No need to take the access cover off to add oil. There is a dedicated access cover for oil. An oil fill funnel is provided, which is nice, but the spout is so small, it is a challenge to add oil w/o spilling. Maybe a slightly longer hose on the funnel would be better so it could be bent to more of a vertical pouring position. The leads on the battery are too short for people like me with big hands. It is difficult to get my hands into the small battery compartment. My knuckles are now scraped. I plugged in the AC adapter to charge the battery, but there is no indication (like an LED light) to indicate it is charging. Something as simple as you find on an electric shaver would be an improvement. My next step will be to add fuel and see how it actually works. At this point in the process, as you can read, I am a bit frustrated. Hopefully the rest of the process will be better.

I just bought this generator. I am happy about the ease of set up. Also, it is very easy to move this generator around which is an added bonus for a little lady such as myself. Generator started up first push of the button and ran smoothly.

Simple to Use and Great Features

I bought this in September of 2024 after a major extended power outage in Duncan SC. The setup was easy and took about 10. Fortunately, I haven't had a reason to use it since I purchased it other than a 30-minute break in period which went flawlessly. I feel confident that we are ready if we experience an extended power outage in the future. Definitely worth the peace of mind moving forward.

I bought this 6 months ago to deal with frequent power outages. Starts-up flawlessly every time with the push of a button, powers the whole house and runs extremely quiet. Very satisfied with this inverter.

Easy Setup, Runs Quiet!

I bought this to have piece of mind at home when I'm away and my family deals with inclement weather. Very easy to use, runs quiet, and set up was easy. Great pick for keeping necessities running off you don't need a whole house standby generator.
I would recommend this to a friend!
