What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the generator for its strong, reliable performance and exceptional value. Most highlight its ability to power entire homes including air conditioning and multiple circuits simultaneously, with many noting successful operation on natural gas, propane, and petroleum. The tri-fuel flexibility, easy setup, and intuitive design are frequently celebrated as standout strengths. Reviewers consistently report quick starts and confident readiness for real outages. A few mention the unit becomes very hot during operation, and one reported initial startup difficulty, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by widespread satisfaction and approval.

Easy operation, plenty of power

Would Recommend

I bought this generator about a year ago. I have a second Duromax generator also. This one I run strictly on natural gas. So far it has exceeded my expectations. It basically can power my entire 2000 sq ft home including central air.

Cool Days & Nights

Would Recommend

Connected 13000 Watt Durostar Tri-Fuel Generator to our 50 AMP plug and natural gas. It worked flawlessly to run our 3 ton split system air conditioner and 110 volt outlets.

The generator is compact and powerful

Would Recommend

I like the compact nature and power production of the generator although I’m a bit apprehensive about the 6 month oil change schedule given the generator will get very few hours during the time period

Remote start works great. Fairly quiet.

Would Recommend

I have not put a drop of gasoline in it. It runs perfectly on natural gas. It is not very loud either.

Starts right up in all fuel modes

Supply power it advertised both using gas or natural gas. Generator performance was impressive under heavy load. Initial assembly and breaking in were simple and instructions were clear. The unit started immediately utilizing petroleum and natural gas. Regulator, hose and quick connect for propane were supplied also twenty five foot natural gas line with quick connect fittings.
