What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this generator for powerful, reliable performance during outages, with most highlighting its ability to simultaneously power furnaces, well pumps, refrigerators, and electronics without strain. The tri-fuel flexibility—running on gasoline, propane, or natural gas—is highly valued, especially for those with existing natural gas lines. Electric start, easy assembly, and quick setup earn consistent commendation, while the LED display, carbon monoxide sensor, and low-oil shutoff are appreciated safety features. Some note quieter operation than older models. A few report propane startup issues or occasional mechanical failures, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by strong overall satisfaction.

Powered my entire house.

Would Recommend

No gas is available where I live so when power goes out we're screwed. This machine powered a 30 gallon electric water heater, 3/4 horsepower well pump, 2 ton heat pump and all outlets, lights and appliances with no problems. Only appliance not operated was 25 year old electric range, didn't need it with a microwave and hotplates. Moving the 200 pound beast isn't the easiest when rolling through grass and mud. Just like every other generator it's noisy, but I have mine in a well ventilated shed ...

An outstanding generator!

Would Recommend

got this one today and went straight to the backyard to test it out. output power is great, the included cover, propane hookup hose and 30 amp power cord are huge pluses and were definite selling points for me. my old generator was from 2005 and was "hearing protection loud". the firman, you can be around it without earpro, but its is NOT 72dB.. that is absolutely not correct. at idle its in the mid-high 90s, still significantly quieter than my old generator (which is what i wanted). dB ai...

Lowes arrived ahead of schedule to my delight and delivered the 250 lb generator right to the front of my garage door so I could assemble. Easy assembly once out of box. Thank you Lowes and thank you Lowes delivery contractor......great job by the two men.

runs on gas but not on propane yet

Would Recommend

this is a very heavy generator, you will need help lifting it out of your truck etc. I could not get it to run on propane, I think it is the regulator hose, it started right up on gasoline. I do like it but im wondering about the propane regulator and if they will replace it.

Wouldnt Stay On

Would Not Recommend

Great while running, plenty of power. Had the generator in the middle of the driveway with nothing around it and the carbon monoxide sensor kept shutting it down. Had to put a box fan on it to keep it from shutting off and taping the carbon monoxide sensor. Returned it, also had a gas leak from the line running directly behind the tank to the panel. Apparently the sensor is a known issue online, most peolpe bipass it, but for the money i shouldnt have to modify the equipment. Will be gettin...

Perfect generator for those power outtage times

Would Recommend

I cannot say enough good things about this generator. It has plenty of power, maybe not whole house, like AC and other large items, but other than that, it will provide power to everything I need in the event of a power failure. This includes refrigerators, freezers, microwaves, lights, ceiling fans electronics and more. The Trifuel feature means you are not limited to just one fuel source. For me, natural gas is accessible and I never have to worry about gas cans. However, to be prepared I ...

EXCELLENT VALUE - PERFECT FOR 2200SF HOUSE

Would Recommend

I have tested the unit running it on NG with a 3.5 ton HVAC unit (with soft start installed). The generator powers about 85% of the house. I had installed a quick connect on the generator and already had a QC on the house bib. Not gonna lie, it's loud. For hurricane Beryl, every other house had a generator so noise really isn't an issue in HTX. I got it on sale at Lowes for $799. Also, Firman has 7 day a week support. I have chatted with Firman on weekends several times, they answer you usually ...

Great Value and Great Support by Firman

Would Recommend

Just bought this generator last week on sale for $799. Ended up getting 2 day delivery. Paid a little extra to have it brought into my garage. The Firman support is amazing. I was on the chat on Saturday asking a boat load of questions and, amazingly enough, I was getting my questions answered. This thing is a beast weighing over 200lbs. I followed the YouTube directions from Firman to lay the generator on its side and put the wheels on. If you're going to run this on NG, you're going have...

Worth the Money

Would Recommend

The generator does everything I need it to do. It has enough power and it is a bit more quiet than my previous generators. It is important to know that this generator does have a carbon monoxide sensor, and it is very sensitive. The generator shuts off even if you are using it in a confined area outside. A work around was necessary.
