What a piece of junk!

I bought this almost a month ago in preparation for hurricane season. Two days after receiving it, our power was out for 7days. I had it connected to the main panel, and got the house powered up with it. After about 15 minutes I engaged the AC (my AC has a soft start connected), almost immediately the generator sputtered and died. I pulled this new unit out of service and ran the whole week with no further issues once I hooked up my older (less wattage) conventional generator. Thankfully I was able to sell this piece of crap to a neighbor who didn’t care about running their main AC.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Lots of power without the noise

I bought this generator about a month ago and finally got to put it to the test this weekend. I live in FL where we need to be prepared every year for tropical storm and hurricane caused power outages. I've had a Predator 3500 for several years and love it, but it's only 120V. I wanted something that was still relatively quiet but had the power to run my big loads like central AC and stove. To run the AC I first installed a MicroAir EasyStart and it works great! This generator has no problem starting it up along with everything else in the house. Electric start is so easy. You just push the button and it fires right up. If it doesn't start the first time, just wait a second and it automatically tries starting t again. I've only had it for a very short time so I still have lots of testing and break in to do but so far it has been great. The noise level is a little louder than my Predator 3500 but no where near what an open frame equivalent would be. Those can be quite obnoxious in a residential neighborhood like mine. My only complaint is that I wanted to test out the recoil start and the rope knot slipped out of the handle on the 2nd pull. So it's in there somewhere and I have no idea how to disassemble the unit to get it back out. Not cool at all because that's the only way to start it if the battery is dead. Now I need to find out where to get it repaired under warranty. Since they are out of stock everywhere it's not as simple as just returning it for another one.

Well packaged, starts right up, very powerful unit yet very quiet. Excellent purchase so far, only have less than 10 hours so can’t give any information for longevity. Very happy so far.

Easy Maintenance

Very smart build with great ease of maintenance features. Runs 90% of my house simultaneously, with a soft start module on my 3 ton heat pump. Will be a great backup power solution, far cheaper with cleaner and more fuel efficient power.

It's a beast!

Haven't put it to work yet but we feel better having it around. the 11000 is a big boy, thats for sure. Nice and inclosed shell so it should keep it a little quieter then the regular generators, and with much lower THD

Shipped with very little to do to get it operating

I bought this to use for home backup power and to run some power tools when working outdoors. A test run for home backup and it powered the circuits I ran to a transfer switch and so far there have not been and issues with operating a table saw and compound miter saw allowing me to setup shop where power isn't available. Push button start is a bonus.
