What Customers Are Saying

The generator offers good performance and power output, able to handle heavy loads. It has dual fuel capability (gasoline and propane) for flexibility. The unit is easy to start and operate, with features like electric start and USB charging. It runs quietly and has a compact design. However, some customers reported quality control issues like bent frames or missing parts upon delivery. Longevity concerns were also mentioned, with a few experiencing problems after extended use. Overall, it is a capable and reliable generator, especially for home backup power and light/medium duty applications, but may not meet the needs of those with particularly demanding power requirements.

Power that will surprise you

Would Recommend

The 5,500 Watt Dual Fuel Portable HX Generator w/ CO Alert has been steadfast in its reliability. It consistently starts, runs seamlessly and has provided well over a hundred hours of power for our off grid cabin. The dual fuel feature gives us flexibility in fuel source. It is by far the cleanest, smoothest running generator to be utilized on our property and I would recommend the brand whole heartedly.

Great generator!

Would Recommend

This thing is a beast! We love it! The fact that it also runs on propane is pretty awesome. Only complaint is that there was some damage during shipping. Doesn’t affect operation but still kinda disappointing.

Good basics, solar backup

Would Recommend

Been using for over a year to run power tools and recharge batteries in my solar power set up. Starts well on gas. Doesn’t start on propane well.

A great generator that works for years

Would Recommend

Had this generator for a few years now and winterized it over a year ago, with moving and being busy I didn't maintain or test fire it up since. When the winter storm took out power this year it fired right up and ran 15 hours a day for 5 days straight perfectly. Great generator that works. Period.

Excellent product great value

Would Recommend

Bought this generator several years ago and it still performs as expected. Provides a quick back up for my breaker box when we lose power. Recently replaced the 12volt battery and the unit started right up during my inspection .

does what is intended quite well

Would Not Recommend

This was a Christmas gift. I have had to use it 5 or 6 times; it starts immediately, and is pretty quiet compared with various neighbors' generators. I keep a small solar charger hooked to the battery.
