This generator was the best Watt/Cost ratio. It has an easy pull start, you don't need a battery or worry about it being charged. I chose the gas only version over propane because unless you have a stationary tank, you still need to stop any generator in order to switch fuel type, you would need to take care of the additional propane tank, and running on propane reduces the maximum wattage.
Other features included that other generators at this price don't have: roll cage, wheels, digital gauge with voltage, frequency, hours, and use timer.
With a 5300 running watts limit, it runs with no problem my big fridge, a crockpot, 50" LCD TV, DVD player, 2 tablets, 2 cell phones, and a fan. Planning to add a window AC unit and when winter comes, a space heater. Also planning to add an interlock switch to run the lights and the furnace.
We just got in this great generator - wanted to test it out before writing a review. Arrived in great condition, quick and easy to assemble. It started on the first pull, and runs great - tested it out with my electric drill - works like it should!
Good features such as outlets for transfer switch and RV. Good amount of power to run all household appliances and easy to move around on the supplied wheels. A couple minor issues, could use additional regular 120v outlets and power could be cleaner, specs in manual mention <23% THD.
