Great product and service

Would Recommend

When I got home I discovered the box had been open. I did not realize a piece was missing until the electrical installed the electrical panel. When I went to customer service they went out of their way to find the missing piece and had it the same afternoon. The BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I have ever received.

Seems good but...

Would Recommend

Like everything about this kit but... It does not have any cabling or wiring from the power inlet box tor the transfer box.

Instructions are missing key bits of information

Would Recommend

Seems to be of good quality but even so also seems a little pricey to me for switches, breakers, wires and the box. I found the documentation to be a little lacking with missing information such as an unlabeled wire in Figure 5 connected to the house breaker and had to spend some of my valuable time to take the box apart to confirm how things are meant to be connected. Plus it would have been nice if a figure showing how the center of each switch connects to the house circuit and is a double thr...

Verify the open box has all the right parts

Would Recommend

The person who originally bought this returned it to the store after cutting a wire out in the exterior box and cutting off the end of the cord and replacing it with a different plug. If it hadn't been the last one on the shelf because the store put it back up, I would have returned it and got a fresh one, then my review would have been better. As it was, I fixed the cut wire, got a plug from a different vendor for a lot less and fixed the cord. Once the box itself is verified by an electricia...
