Ratings & Reviews for Firman Electric Start 9400 Starting / 7500 Running Watt Gas and Propane Dual fuel Portable Generator

Saved us from ice storm

My old generator seized up during an ice storm, so I grabbed this one and ran it for two days straight. It worked perfectly to keep our house powered while the linemen repaired the damage.

Very Satisfied

I am very satisfied with the generator. It would have been nice to have help loading it. it is heavy but easy to move around.

It is very good

I like that it runs off gas or propane

Worked for 5 hours

Generator worked for five hours when we took it back to lowes with in 48 hours during a hurricane they would not exchange it with the receipt of purchase in hand and really dismissed us. Said because it wasn't in a factory seal box and had gas put in it they couldn't exchange it. Please explain tk me how you know of somwrhing qorks if you do not open it and try running it. Now we are out a Generator and the money spent to purchase the generator because the warranty through firman their certified...

Excellent customer service 👏👏👏👏

Generator worked well using gas and propane. It came with everything you need to use it including heavy duty extension cord. I was so thankful for Lowe's having a team loading these generators on the customers' cars before Hurricane Milton hit Florida. Excellent customer service during Hurricane Milton! Thank you Lowe's 👏👏👏👏

User friendly

This generator exactly fit my needs. It's for back up if the power goes out at my home. It has the higher capacity needed to keep the grinder pump for my septic system operational, so that I can continue to use the plumbing at my house. It is extremely user friendly, even for newbies, if one takes the time to read the manual. As gasoline fumes are extremely toxic to me, I was delighted to find a generator this powerful that can operate in propane.

Right out of the box.

It was too heavy to lift out of the trunk and carry it. so we used gravity and let it fall out. cut open the box, put the wheels & foot on and wheeled it to its location. put in oil, filled it with gas and I didn't shut it off for 4 days. Ran a 1 1/2 hour maintenance run on the first of the month, cranked right up and powered the house like normal. Sort of. Can't use the stove and water heater at the same time. But by using circuit breakers to turn things off and on, it will power everything but...

The propane regulator provided is too small

Works great with gasoline, I bought it to run 50amp with my propane tanks, which are 40 and 60 pounds. The regulator is for a small barbecue sized tank not the sized tank needed to run the generator. The regulator that I have for my tanks were frosting up and I was told I would need at least a 100 pound tank to run the generator at its capacity. Disappointing. Ended up using gasoline which has limits for storage etc.

Dependable

Great generator

Great product. Easy to set up, use and store. Comes with what you need for a simple use.
