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.

Decent, had faulty spark plug apparently.

Would Recommend

As soon as I received it, I put everything together, and connected to propane per instructions. Fired it up and ran it for approx 4-5 minutes. A week later I went to use and it would not start up. Appears to be a faulty spark plug. Other reviews I read on this product, others also had spark plug issues with the one that came in it from the factory.

What a generator…XP 10000 HX

Would Recommend

Came a day earlier than expected, but that’s good. The driver placed it close to the garage and I sled it onto a dolly and rolled it in. If weight is an indicator of quality we are doing good. Unpacked and assembled in about 1/2 an hour, very intuitive instructions. Added the oil which is hard to find in my area and ready to break her in another day. Came with all the plug ends and the propane hose that it is supposed to, also a few tools to get you started. One thing that I will add is a ground...

whole house unit

Would Recommend

This new unit will replace my 4800 that I used to power part of my house when power went out. Now with this one set it up with a plug in to an outdoor box to the house and now the whole house can run on this. Had great experience with the 4800 duel fuel did not look any where else for a bigger one.

Whole House NP!

Would Recommend

This is a POWERHOUSE! It runs my electric stove, center air, washer and dryer, and well pump without quitting. My only complaint (and why it’s only 4 stars) it’s VERY loud!!! I have multiple site generators and this war horse barks obnoxiously…

Depends on manufacturer support

Would Not Recommend

Started on propane on third started and seemed to run fine. Broke in for an hour, then changed the oil. Next day, very hard starting with a couple backfires. Ran for an hour again on partial load. Changed the oil again. Attempted to restart and nothing but backfires and pops. Would not start. Listened to trouble shootng tips on the phone. Tried closed choke, open choke and partial choke. Still nothing. Not impressed at this point at all. Will see if customer service comes through.
