I bought for occasional power outages and to run my non stop sump pump after heavy rain and thunderstorms. Electric start is great and it started right up first time no hesitation.
Seems well built. Heavy duty frame. I like the rubber engine mounts. I assembled the feet and wheels. Put the supplied engine oil in using the provided funnel. This was a nice feature that made it much easier to add the oil. Put about a pint of gas in the tank, turn on main switch, set the choke to start and 3 pulls later it fired up. No vibration when the engine is running. Metered all outputs and everything checked out. The only thing that was off is the owners manual says the oil capacity is 074 qts. This only brought the level up to the low end of the dipstick. I added a few more ounces to bring the level up some and will keep an eye on it. Other than that it seems to be a well built machine and will make the next power failure easier to navigate
