My 3500W generator is easy to start and runs smooth. Noise level is within what I would call normally acceptable. Good product, very satisfied.

Easy starting generator

Would Recommend

I bought this generator a few weeks ago and was glad to find that it fit under my bed cover in my truck with the wheels off. In my application, I wanted to keep it in my truck, and I’m able to do that. I’m using it while I build my house and plan to camp with it in the future. It starts really easily (one pull)

Good quality!

I bought it a few days ago and the build quality seems to be great, I expect it will last a long time. And it comes with a 2 year warranty!

Good service right out of the box!

Would Recommend

I bought this in an emergency and it performs very well right out of the box. It generates less noise then my other unit which is a different manufacturer. Very happy

Great for camper

Would Recommend

I’ve found the Champion 201286 to be incredibly reliable and easy to use, providing a solid 12-hour run time that’s perfect for long stretches of power. My only real complaint is that the unit is quite heavy, making it a bit of a chore to transport manually. If you plan on moving it around a lot, I’d definitely recommend opting for a model with wheels to save your back.

Compact and gets the Job done.

So far, I'm enjoying the generator. I'm currently working on installing custom DIY Wheels with Pneumatic Tires along with a Pull Handle and Front Swivel Wheels. I'm also looking at someway building a rack to store a power cable. I'm currently looking to build or buy a 120V AC 15/20A GFCI pigtail with GFCI receptacles to use in either the 20 or 30-amp plug-in receptacle on the generator. This will allow me to be able to plug-in more 110v/120v appliances if I'm not using an AC unit. Later on, I m...

No Problems

Would Recommend

Bought this not too long ago, is a little louder that I wanted but is still pretty quite. Have had no problems at all. Wish it had a electric easy start. The CO Shield is a nice safety add on that is worth the money. Hopefully it will last awhile!
