What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this generator for its reliability, 10,000-watt power output, and dual-fuel flexibility, with most noting it powers entire homes during extended outages without failure. The dual-fuel system allowing gasoline and propane operation is highly valued for extended runtime, and reviewers consistently highlight the straightforward assembly, intuitive controls, and electric start as major advantages. Build quality is described as robust, with many long-term users reporting years of flawless operation. A few report isolated issues like fuel tank frame fragility, occasional faulty switches, or louder-than-expected operation, but these are far outweighed by strong overall satisfaction and dependable performance.

Lost revenue

Would Not Recommend

Product was only used 4 times and then locked up after only 8hrs one day and 4 hrs the next. Not sure why it locked up and piston hit the spark plug. We purchased in February and expected alot more from this unit.

Very Powerful

Would Recommend

I bought this as a substitution for a much larger generator. I ended up selling the other one and keeping this one very good generator and is powering my 5th wheel just fine.

Highly recommend this generator, well built!

Would Recommend

Time will tell, but this generator runs my Hobart MIG welder with ease...and I'm sure it will power my 1400 sq. ft. house during the many power outages we get here. Great price and fast delivery, and easy to assemble!

Excellent service

Would Recommend

Electrician said 8k, I got 10k. Want more power. Shipment was prompt. Delivery was a little slow but holiday and 8” of snow may have slowed things down. Was worried RL Transfer would have have tough time coming down my private road. Very relieved when I saw the driver drag the generator, on a pallet Jack, right up to the garage. Assembly instructions were excellent and went fast. Owners manual is well done and not in a dozen languages. Generator started up slowly the first time but now that...

No idle down feature as they advertise

I bought a 10000 watt started it and called to return it they would not take it back it was so loud and no idle down when breaker is on runs wide open so I do not recommend this unit if you want a quiet unit and I only ran it 10 min it was a 120 ft away from are cabin super loud

Works as advertised so far

Would Recommend

Getting to the battery is difficult, and adding oil due to location of filler is REALLY tedious unless the generator is up on a table or rack at eye level. Other than that, it runs fine, starts right up, and runs my power tools in the field without any trouble.

Registering Generator and Finding Serial Number

I haven't started it up yet, I'll do a separate review for the check out of the generator. In getting there, though, it was very tough to get a photo or even read the etching for the generator serial number on the unit itself. I found the label on the box, but I wanted to make sure the actual etching was the same. Here is a hi-res photo. I had to put the generator on end (haven't filled it with oil or gas yet), to get the angles to even be able to read and take a photo.

Gen . Spark Plug

Ran it about 3 min. to make sure it would start up and it did . Let it set a few days and tried again and it would not start . Tried several things but no luck . Replaced the Spark plug and it ran again as it should . THE original plug went bad on just a few mins. of running .
