Sometimes older technology is better.

It's old, it's heavy, it's solid as a rock. It's the most reliable Yeti we own. This was the first Yeti we acquired. It was provided to us to provide power for two CPAP units and a refrigerator during power outages. With 2000 watts of capacity and over 6000 watt hours of battery life, it really can power most of the necessities in our house - fridge, lights, CPAPs, internet, etc. (Plus the occasionally luxury such as the espresso machine.) It doesn't offer all of the bells and whistles on the app that new units provide, but unlike our newer units it remains connected to WiFi all the time. Our smaller units shut the AC outlets down if there is any type of power fluctuation, but the 6000 does not. The problem with the AC outlets shutting down is that you have to manually start them - not easy if you're not around to do it.

Reliable and easy to use

After being very pleased by the performance of the 3000x that I purchased five years ago, I'm excited to add to our power supply with the 6000x. Operation appears to be identical to the smaller model, which is straight-forward and easy to use. We also like the packability of the briefcase panels. We use the batteries in two different locations, so the design makes portability fairly convenient.

6000x great batter, problems to know beforehand

I like GoalZero. the 6000x isn't a good fit for me. I should have understood how slow 600w solar input, and zero wind would turn out for me. The one part that was harder to understand was that out of the box (it is a beautiful unit, and great wheels) - but OOTB the 2 AC plugs didn't work. 37 reboots and steps later, the AC plugs still didn't work, so I am returning it. Factory testing before shipping would have caught this problem, i have to believe. But I expect that will get fixed. If you have a need for 6000wh for a light weekend or more of battery power, and don't mind plugging it into the wall, this will be perfect for you, that's just not my scenario.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When our power was off for 3 days in January because of the fire danger in our area we thought we were pretty well prepared with a Yeti 3000X and 2 Yeti 6000x's. One took care of the kitchen, one took care of the internet/WIFI/cable, and one kept the aquariums filtering and circulating. All worked great. Unfortunately the refrigerator and freezer in the garage weren't running and we lost a lot of food. So we added another Yeti X6000 and now we're charged up and ready for future incidents. Tried the new one and it performed nicely!

We have a 3000. Been very happy with. We are off the grid in the summer in northern Michigan. Just wanted more capacity.

My wife & I got it specifically as a house back up when there is a power outage. I also have a smaller generator for my CPAP & both seem to do what I got them for. It is just what the Doctor ordered.

I love this product, I've had issues with my in home power due to electricity being powered off. This happens everytime the Santa Ana winds comes knocking on my door. I've been a customer 4 years ago purchasing my 1000x station for camping and emergency power for my apartment. Now living in a house, I've had more power outages and decided to purchase this 6000x. I have 2 full sized refrigerators one in the kitchen and one in the garage. Now, I have no problems powering any of the refrigerators
Plus, i still have power to plug in all the lights, fishtank, TV and internet for a good amount of time. Also, I like to use the 30' goal zero extender to mount my nomad 100 to charge either the 1000x or 6000x to trickle charge. I absolutely love goal zero products, truly is a life saver. Bye bye generator and hello power stations.
