Good features and output for the price

Pros:
-electric start, remote start (not all that useful IMO, but it's there if you want it)
-trickle charger for the battery
-50A output, which is hard to find in this size/price range
-dual fuel is handy, if you want natural gas you can always get an adapter kit online, loads of people do it that way
-voltages are bang on, 240 and 120V both +/- 0.4V

Cons:
-heavy and loud, but that's the case with every generator. Not louder than any other genny this size, and quieter than some.
-my unit came didn't want to run at first, the governor was revving it up and down wildly and the engine would choke after 30 seconds. Finally figured out it was a kinked fuel hose coming from the gas/propane selector module. Undid the hose clamp and rotated the hose so it stopped starving the carb of fuel, and everything worked great. But it would be nice if it actually worked out of the box, especially if the consumer can't diagnose problems like that.
-nominally high THD (<23%), if you care. The overwhelming majority of modern electronics won't be affected by high THD, though I've heard computer uninterruptible power supplies sometimes refuse to recognize that they're plugged in when on generator power.

All in all, definitely worth a buy.

I bought this a few weeks ago and can't wait for the first power outage. It started right up and ran smoothly and quietly. It was bigger than I had thought but I guess that this is needed for the power it puts out

Just In Time

After Hurricane Beryl, we decided to purchase a generator. No power for 6 days was the main reason for the purchase. We want to ensure our family will not go without the next time.
