Robust enough to power our 2,000 sq ft home
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
from Grass Valley, CA
We recently moved to the foothills of the Sierras (Northern California). Power outages are common, so we bought a little 2,000 watt portable to keep devices charged. We are presently in the middle of an extended outage with no end in sight. My neighbor is an electrician and he told me he could wire this generator into our main so we can power the whole house with very little disruption.
I had been under the impression that a whole-house generator would cost five figures. This was an absolute bargain.
The only very minor quibble I have with the unit is that some of the threads for the nuts securing the feet are fouled either with paint or a manufacturing burr. I attached the feet using one bolt each but will ream them out later. For now, they're secure enough. That very minor defect is the only reason I did not give it five stars.
Being able to run on propane as well as gas is a huge convenience. We will plumb it into our 450-gal propane tank but use gasoline for backup.
The wireless fob to turn the generator on and off is a very nice touch. If we have future extended outages, it'll make life a lot easier.

I have looked at many generators for the past few months and finally chose this one due to its features and ratings. It did not disappoint at all. The model far exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with my purchase. I highly recommend this product.

Just received it today. Easy to assemble. Started right up with no issues. I'll be ready when the power goes out, again.

This is a backup electric supply. Plenty of power for all necessities in case a storm knocks out our service. Hope I don't need the generator but I'm ready if it happens. Tried it out and runs super.

Checks all the boxes!

I bought this generator to use as a full house backup power solution. I did a LOT of research on portable generators and nothing compared to this one when it came to features for the price combined with positive reviews. This generator had everything I was looking for including 12000 peak watts, around 10,000 running watts, dual fuel capability and a pushbutton start. It even came with one feature I wasn't looking for - the remote start capability. That's a nice to have feature that wasn't a requirement, but will certainly be nice to have. I also liked that it came with everything needed right out of the box, including oil with a funnel and a propane hose.

Dual Fuel is an Advantage - Damaged Product
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: jwil
from Wisconsin
I am happy with the product, I looked at my reviews before purchasing. The redundancy of dual fuel is nice especially in the event of an emergency. It is a heavy well built product. I plan on hooking it up to a home transfer switch for use during power outages to keep larger appliances and boiler system operational. The only issue is that the frame came damaged, as if a large object was dropped on it. There was no indication of this until it was opened which leads me to think it was done prior to boxing it up.
