Appears to be well built with excellent features. It started immediately after adding oil. I have run it for only 10 hours and I am well pleased. I would like to have a remote start feature . Also would like rear mounts and rear wheels. I could then remove wheels which would reduce the foot print for using in a fixed location.
After the hurricanes that have come through this past year, this product has become an essential item for our home and travel. If we have a need for another one my family will definitely be buying it from you guys.
Overall very easy to assemble and get started. But several minor kinks noticed: 1. When installing the two feet, one of the nuts is not aligned well, making it impossible to screw the flange bolt in. I had to screw the bold in from the other direction to force it through (kind of opening up the threads), then screw the bolt out and install as illustrated in the manual. 2. In Page 18, step 5 of "Starting the generator," I was looking for the breakers on the generator originally. After finding on such buttons, then realized this step means breakers on my circuit panel, etc. So please make this clear to minimize confusion. For standard-alone operation (e.g., on the road), this step is not needed.
