Purchased recently and am very happy with how quiet and easily it is to operate. Push button start and remote start feature helps to not have to leave RV to start our generator. It also has a large gasoline tank and allows to run all night! I love the extended pull for ease of movement!
I bought a pair of these generators to parallel and provide 50a service to my rig. The generator is surprisingly quiet even under a load, starts easily, remote is a nice add-on, full of features and data so I can see what is going on. For the money you cannot buy better.
I bought this generator to replace a Honda 7000 that was stolen. I am very happy with it. I actually like it better. Just remember to turn off fuel line first and all is well. Change oil often and she runs great.
So far we are very happy with our purchase. This unit has an amazingly low decibel rating for the amount of power that it provides. Although we have not had to use it yet, this will be for our homes energy back up. This unit can power to fridges, our furnace fan, several lights, and some kitchen essentials. For us the quiet aspect was a must. If we have to use this overnight, we can trust that we will have enough runtime time to make it last through the night and not wake our neighbors.
Purchased this for my RV to run A/C and Microwave etc. Set up was easy. Started up right away. Ran initial oil for one hour unloaded then changed. Oil was surprisingly dirty and had metal bits. Ran another hour and changed again. Oil looked better. Ran third under 25% load for 20 min. Oil again somewhat dirty but much less metal bits. Seems to run well, has nice features. My only complaints so far are that the cover edges are too sharp and will cut you if you're not careful. also the fit and finish is somewhat sloppy...covers don't line up great and they rattle when running, and the rubber on top comes off if you brush up against it. Time will tell how it will hold up but I am hopeful. Would recommend so far.
Love it. I bought two weeks ago. I have used it for two weekends to power my camper. I ran AC, microwave and coffee pot at the same time and was super quiet. The unit idles up during AC start up but quickly idles down even with the 15k BTU running. I would certainly recommend at this time.
