Used as a backup generator in a country setting. The unit arrived and was running within 1/2 hr of receiving it. The setup and operation were as described in the quick setup sheet and the user manual. It started first crank and performed well under load.
Used duting second power outage in two weeks. Had a borrowed one with 2000 watts and couldn't use our space heaters. The new geberator powered two space heaters, refrigerator and sump pump with no issue. Having it connected to house by an electrician. Big improvement, love it.
This generator was purchased because of power failure due to a big storm. I needed something that would be strong enough to power my whole house but not destroy my savings account. This machine more than delivers on all fronts. It has been referred to the "Mercedes" of generators by friends and family. The remote start/stop feature is an added luxury that most won't use but is fun anyway. When I unboxed all I had to do was install the wheels (simple setup) add the included oil then filled with super unleaded. Battery was charged enough to push button start. It turned over on half of the first crank. Ran like a charm. Next step is wiring it to my panel. Bring on the next outage!
I am not mechanically inclined, but am electronically enough so to be tired of not having power. I found this after research and reviews, and even my electrician has recommended it to his family and friends. As it turns out, this did way more of my Colonial-style house than I expected.
