Lots of features!

We've been having frequent power outages, and I needed a portable generator to help get us through. I've used other brands and different types of generators and so I have some experience with this type of product. We did quite a bit of research (and some math), and decided to purchase this particular generator. So far I'm impressed with the features this unit has. The build quality is very good, and the feet and wheels were easy to install. You probably own a set of wrenches, but they include one for the bolts and the oil drain plug anyway, which is nice. The manual is also well written, with good illustrations and instructions, including how to set the valve lash. Pretty rare in this day and age, and most appreciated. The generator starts easily both with the recoil rope, and with the remote start. I like how many outlets they provide, which helps you use all the available power if you don't hook it up to your house. I also appreciate that they installed a battery charger port and included the charger! That's a nice touch, and means that this generator is ready to go straight out of the box with nothing extra to buy. All I needed to do was add the included oil, add fuel, connect the battery, set the choke (only for a manual start, but don't forget this step!), and pull the recoil starter rope. The running generator charges the battery, and after that both the start button and remote start worked perfectly. The remote start fob worked from up to about 30 feet away, and also worked from inside my house.
The day after it arrived we lost power for a few hours into the night. I used this generator to power our fridge and freezers, as well as a few lights. Not much of a challenge for a 9500 watt generator, but it worked flawlessly. Next I will try running my welder on the 240v/50a plug and see how it does. We plan to connect thus to our house with an interlock kit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Generator

I bought this generator in June 2023. It arrived undamaged, and was easy to assemble. It started up on the first try using the push button ignition. Follow a short break in period, I push a load on it and it worked as advertised. While I hope not to have to use it, it is comforting to know that I will have the necessary power if and when needed

Quick delivery. Ordered on July 3 and was delivered on July 10. Put wheels and feet on, filled with oil, hooked up propane tank and pushed start button, started right up and runs great. Very pleased so far.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
