This inverter generator was purchased for use with our travel trailer but it will be great portable power for our farm as well. We love how quiet it is and all the extra features that we did not find on other comparably priced units. For example, all the outlets are covered, it is RV ready with no extra adapter needed, and with the extendable handle and wheels is very easy to move around. Little design things like a screw on funnel and easy access panels make it a user friendly unit. Overall a great unit for our needs at a very reasonable price!
The initial startup was a pain. It just cranked but wouldn't fire. I had to remove the side panel and manually choke it and it fired right up. Seems to be running fine now. Looking forward to putting it to the test this weekend.
My city commonly looses power every year and needed a good generator for my appliances and maybe a small heater. I was able to easily set this unit up and had it running quickly. This will certainly do the job I need it to do.
I bought this inverter/generator to take camping. It is fairly quiet, has a large fuel tank allowing for long run times and will power the air conditioner on the camper. It's a good solid unit.
I use it at high altitudes (9000 ft +) so I purchased separately and installed the high altitude jet before adding fuel or oil. Would be nice if jet kits were included with the unit like some competitors do. Anyone using over 2000 feet is recommended to replace if I remember correctly. Jet install could have a little simpler but the directions were clear.
