Last minute generator saved our sanity
Would RecommendWell above what i expected. This generator would last easily 14 to 15 hours on a full tank. Worked better than expected considering it ran nonstop for 6+ days and night.

Great product! Starts and runs great.
Would RecommendGreat product! Started right up and ran great. No issues. A lot better than a Generac

Very adequate for living purposes.
Would RecommendI live off grid and adequate power is always a problem until I bought this. It was hard to start the very first time,but changed places where I purchased gas and octane rating and it hasn't given me any trouble what's so ever. It is a gas hog because it puts out so much energy so I always keep something charging while it's running..
Its very heavy.
Would RecommendI haven't found anything that I don't like about the generator. Only used it once.

Nothing have not had to use it yet but got it if I need it.

We bought this generator before the previous hurricane and ended up not needing to use it. With this hurricane and the widespread power outage we have relied on our generator going on 5 days now. Starts right up every time and powers our fridge a few lights, small appliances, our router and WiFi connection, a fan and phone chargers. Pretty much handles everything we need other than getting a whole house generator.
Read Manual and other safety procedures.

Runs quietly while on back of a rv
Would RecommendThis generator is better and cheaper than my other one. I like how it came with it's own tool pack, but of course it's a craftsman. I got it on back of my rv and it's not really loud. Runs my roof air conditioner, microwave, fans, and tv.
