Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only issue so far is the clock looses time, about 25min. Each year ,so timers for run exercise times aren't consistant

Briggs & Stratton Home Generator
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought a home that had a 15 year old Briggs & Stratton 22kw generator, that performed without any problems. Just prior to Hurricane Berol, the generator had a bad ignition coil, but ran on one cylinder for over 100 hours, providing power to our house, except for the AC. I am sold on Briggs & Stratton, natural gas generator, full power and runs smooth and quiet.

Stand-by Generator
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the generator in April of this year. It is a great investment for me because I no longer need to fear losting power whenever we have several weathers. I also like this unit because it is very quiet when it is running. I am very pleased with this unit even though it has longer been used once because of loss of power. I am very happy with this purchase. Recommend it to my family and friends.

Keeping the lights on.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Wife and I bought this generator to protect us from the bad weather we have here in Texas. We have a small generator and a manual transfer switch that I would crank up. When I was diagnose with Bladder and Prostate cancer my health prevented me from doing it manual. My wife was unable to do it either.
