This gen is great, but im not giving 5 stars bc is missing a load gauge and also bc the gas top it doesn't close as well and you always smell gasoline, I had a Champion gen that was great in this two aspects. Other than that great portable generator handles a big load. My 3.5 ton AC, led lights TV, fans and no issues so far.
The starter makes this the easiest generator I've ever used. The tires and handle make moving the heavy piece around with ease. I really like all the outlets, though they need to make the outlet covers a little more sturdy.
I've used it to power my house in power outages during the recent tropical storms that hit south Florida and it works great. The remote feature ensure we didn't have to get wet when we needed to turn it on.
Started right out of box, powered all test equipment but I purchased for hurricane and have not used it for that purpose. Push button starter is great for me being a woman. Tested perfectly for my oxygen tank.
