Camper/RV Generator

Would Recommend

I agree with most all of the reviews...a great value for the money. Follow the break-in procedures and all scheduled maintenance. I know nothing o f Db ratings, but this unit is pretty quiet from the front and not bas from the back/muffler side either. The one tip I would give is to make sure the gas cap is on all the way, else the engine will stutter and fluctuate trying to get gas. For the occasional weekend of boondocking, where you want the AC running, this is a good solution. It will run al...

Complete satisfaction

Would Recommend

I used the generator in my home every night because the hurricane Maria damaged the power lines through the island. It works perfect. It is quiet and efficient.

It helped us si much, after Hurracane María. Thank you.

This powerful generator inverter helped us after Hurracane María. We where able to turn on the two door refrigerator, our cellular phones, my laptop, two fans, etc... You need to turn on as indicated step by step or it will not turn on your utilities. Strict step by step as indicated, do not skip steps.

Worked for Irma

Would Recommend

I bought this generator in preparation for hurricane Irma coming to Tampa. After receiving the generator I un-boxed it and realized there was no assembly to be done at all. I put in the specified amount of oil, filled the gas tank, turned on the choke and it started on the second pull. Interestingly, we never lost power at my home so I lent the generator to a friend who wasn't so fortunate and he used it for a day without issue. I was originally looking at a Honda or Yamaha but I am very impress...

Excellent value

Would Recommend

Originally bought this for dry camping and it did the job. First real use was when we went north after Matthew last year and due to road closures we stayed at a couple different WalMarts and it ran everything including the 15,500 ac. Even though it could run the fridge I kept it and the water heater on propane. Also, it struggles with both the ac and microwave so I shut the ac off briefly when I used the microwave. But the real test came recently with Irma as our house lost power. We plugged in ...

Right out of the box

Would Recommend

Bought this 5 days before Irma hit Florida. Followed the directions in the manual and the unit started up right out of the box. Very impressed. Will be using this for camping mostly but it came in handy in the emergency too.

Did not work right out of the box

Would Not Recommend

Right out of the box. Added oil and connected the battery. Added gas, cranked and let it run for several minutes and I could not get voltage to the 120v side. The 12 Volt worked. No circuit breakers were tripped. I bought this for Hurricane Irma. I am glad that I did not need it as It would have failed me from the start

If power is being produced at the other outlets on the machine, I think we might have a loose wire harness possibly from shipping. Hopefully you calle...

Wow!

Would Recommend

Bought this in anticipation of Hurricane Irma. When the power went out, I pulled it out of the box, oiled and gassed it up, and it started on the first pull. Running a large "dorm" fridge, small microwave, a couple of fans, a tv, some lamps, coffee pot, etc. in econony mode with no problems. So far, so good. I love that there was no assembly and that it worked on the first pull. Subtracted 1 star because the oil fill and drain are kind of awkward to work with unless the unit is elevated (e.g., t...

Great RV generator!

Would Recommend

Runs great, did everything I needed it to do... quietly. Easily ran my RV air conditioner, and when i shut the AC off, it would run in economy mode through the night on one tank of fuel. Easy to start, easy to lift and maneuver. No complaints at all.

I really like it

Would Recommend

Wanted a super quiet generator that could start a twin turbine blower that requires 23 amps to start. Found this on sale and the reviews seemed favorable enough to try it. Far exceeded my expectations in power, ease of starting, and quiet operation. Filled the oil and gas, 2 pulls and it fired and ran. We have run it about 15 hours so far, so I don't know about longevity, but for the price I can buy 4 of these for what a comparable wattage Honda costs.
