What I like: Love the remote and push-button start! Really impressed with the design - everything is well thought out and well made. Generator runs smooth once warmed up and auto-choke turns off. The included oil-fill spout (screws into oil inlet) is a nice accessory. Manual and operation instructions are very well written. What could be better: Manual choke lever is a bit small, somewhat tucked away and not easy to find first time especially in the dark. No information is provided for battery trickle charger that is included.
Only had it for a week , so far running good , I do like the toggle display , which prompts codes that are almost right on , like when oil is needed to be changed , gas cap is loose, only thing is I think the starter on the unit already froze , or a bad connection , I'm having to use the pull cord , which is not bad at all , an old lady can pull it to get it going , thumbs up for that ...!!!
I bought this item a few days ago it's easy to put together and it has a start button. Thank goodness no more pulling to start this Generator. Well constructed and very easy to move. As you get older you look for something easier to work/use.
Living through hurricanes without a generator can be difficult and stressful, if you live in areas where they can knock power out for weeks at a time, you need a generator. I picked this generator because of the name and price point, a Black Friday purchase. I can power the necessities in my house with this generator, we are now prepared for the weather come what may. It was easy to set up, too.
