I bought this a year ago because of frequent power outages. Have not had to use it yet, but I have peace of mind knowing that I have a quality product should I need it in an emergency.

I have just purchased the generator and used it let. Hope it exceeds my expectations for electrical power outages. Can this generator use gas on one use, then the next use be on propane? During the same outage of electrical power? Thank you

Came packed real good.

Would Recommend

Went together real easy, the little things that came with made a big difference. oil funnel, charger, wheels, handle. Having duel fuel is the greatest, no storing gas a thirty and one twenty pound tank should work real well ( most of us have a twenty already). But time will tell.

Great features!

I bought this for portable power for our camper. It has all the power and outlets I need. Also, it will be handy for the occasional power outages we get here in Central Tennessee.

Looking good so far

Working fine so far, last generator was destroyed by a house fire so hopefully this will last 30 years as well.

This is a great product!

I bought this and assembled it after removing it from the box, the presentation in the box was great, after assembling it and filling the required fluid levels, I tried it on my patio & yard lights & it performed exactly as expected.

Like the options for start up

Would Recommend

Larger than I thought, but sturdy. I am 70+ years old and needed help from my neighbor for assembly, but otherwise, is fine.

Great purchase

We received this yesterday and the instructions were easy to follow. We started it after putting the wheels on and filling the oil. Started on the 2nd pull and works great. We live in Deep South Texas, so a good dependable generator is a must.

Peace of mind

Haven't had to use it in a real emergency yet but the one test run I've done it powered a oscillating fan and heat lamp for a good bit. I expect many years of service so long as I can maintain it!
