Great machine

Would Recommend

Would Recommend

Loud Heavy Powerful Gas Guzzlin Generator

Would Recommend

Our 4K unit, which was just enough to keep our essentials going during outages, died in the middle of a 3 day wind related outage recently, so we picked up this unit as a replacement. First it's HEAVY! Definitely a team a lift situation just to get it in/out of the truck and to get it up on blocks in order to put the wheels on (thank god it has wheels!). Second it's LOUD! If you have neighbors in close proximity, they're definitely going to know when you're running this thing. Even when it...
