Ratings & Reviews for CRAFTSMAN 49 State 2500 Starting / 2200 Running Watt Gasoline Single Fuel Portable Generator

Expensive for few features

This is an adequate generator. It has only 2 110v outlets, NO 30amp, NO 50amp. We bought it as literally the last one on the shelf during a power outage that lasted 3 days. It ran a freezer and seperate fridge/freezer as well as cable tv and internet fine. Would not handle adding a keurig. Fine for emergency, expensive for no 30A outlet at $650.

Ok so far

Only used one time so far for power outages. Did what I expected ran a refrigerator , fans and TV.

works for what you need.

It's lighter than I thought, and pretty easy to move around. I was able to keep my freezer and refrigerator running, plus the tv, and chargers.

Outstanding

I purchased this generator to power a 10,000 BTU window air conditioner. It runs it perfectly. It starts the fourth pull every time. It runs the AC unit for over 9 hours on its coldest settings on 1 gallon of fuel. It's quiet. It's relatively lightweight and the design makes it easy to handle and transport compared to many other generators. The Honda model had a 30 amp receptacle that allows you to plug your RV into the unit. That's the main advantage of the Honda generator in my opinion.

Nice generator at a good price

Hard to start the first time. But, after we got it running, it ran for 12 hours on each tank of gas. After the first tank it was much easier to start.

Easy to use

Easy ordering and easy pick up. Directions was very easy to follow. I now have peace of mind when the electricity goes out.

Very quiet

Great

love it

it's quiet, very efficient I'm happy I got this!!!! Great generator

Do not buy and boycott Lowe’s

Purchased this generator and set it up exactly as stated in the manual. It was not easy to start like Craftsman has on box. Pulled about 15 times and finally got it running. It died with 20 or 30 minutes. Lowes will not take it back as I was told I used the generator. Lowe’s and this generator are garbage. I have been arguing with their store for almost a month and my thirty days to return is about to run out. I am a contractor and spend a lot of money at Lowe’s. I will never spend anoth...

Dont trust this store

Went to pick it up. Already picked up. Credit Card scam. Store didnt check id. Was a physical card transaction supposedly. I have my card. No way physical card was used. Lowes and personnel are horrible.

excellent electric generator

Excellent equipment I recommend 101% It is very quiet,
