I just purchased this generator for home backup protection. I live near Houston and we have hurricanes and flooding issues. Went through the setup process and it started on first try. I noticed two thing right away. It was quieter and lighter than expected for a unit with this power rating. After running it for an hour, I hooked up several items and it seem to handle them with ease. Only item in question was the fuel gauge. It did not register any change at all. At this point I am assuming it did not register because I only put a half a gallon of gas in the tank for testing purposes. Next time I'll fill the tank up completely and increase the load. I'll update this post should I have any additional observations at that time.I am pleased with what I have seen so far.
Very good product, I like the fact it came with the battery for the electric start, very simple to operate, the instructions are easy to understand, very simple to put together
We just received this generator. Having used a generator in the past, there were a few things in particular I was looking for. Fuel gauge, electric start switch, wheels and frame already included. This generator fits the bill, and will be powerful enough for a few needed appliances during power outages in Florida. We haven’t started it up just yet, so I’m giving it 4 stars for now. So far so good.
My first generator. Bought this as a precaution in case power goes out I wont lose everything in my Fridge. Easy to set up. Started right up. Not as loud as I thought. Very nice unit. Should cover what I need !
