Great generator

Found this generator to be the best bang-for-the-buck for our needs. Comes with everything you need to get started - wheel kit, tools, oil etc. dGot this unboxed, wheels installed and oil/gas added in about 15-20 minutes. Electric start worked right away. Ran the generator for a while with no load to break in the engine. Also ran a test with this connected to my breaker panel. Ran my boiler, lights, internet, TV, refrigerator and a small microwave and didn't notice the engine struggling at all. Unit is quieter than I expected. Every few weeks I run the engine on the generator to charge up the battery. We haven't lost power since purchasing this but, after the testing we did, I'm confident it will keep our house running when needed. The first unit I ordered did come damaged but the retailer took care of this immediately. I almost knocked off a star on the review since the packaging doesn't seem to provide adequate protection on some sides. However, my second unit arrived in perfect condition.
I bought this last month and am happy with the ease of use and features. I did observe the alternator cover was dented in at the bottom after unloading the generator. Not sure if this will affect the performance.
I bought this generator for backup power to my house. This generator is large enough to power all necessary circuits and 220vac capabilities for my water pump.
I bought this generator a month and it just arrived. Set up was smooth and easy. Started on the second pull and the electric start works great. We hooked some things up to it and it worked great. Can’t wait to use it more.
