What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this generator for exceptional reliability during power outages. Most highlight its ability to simultaneously power essential appliances—air conditioning, refrigerators, freezers, furnaces, well pumps, and microwaves—for extended periods without interruption. The 30A/240V outlet handles heavy loads effortlessly. Reviewers consistently emphasize the electric start's ease, with many stating they'll never return to pull-start models. The tri-fuel capability (gasoline, propane, natural gas) enables seamless home integration. Practical features like Velcro cord wraps, fitted cover, and large wheels enhance usability. Many find exceptional value for the cost. A few report isolated issues, but the overwhelming majority consider it a worthwhile investment.

Would RecommendI have a few things to share about this generator. I have owned a HF Predator 4000w (gas only) for about 6yrs now and have wanted to upgrade to a larger unit for a while. I could run most of the things I needed, but really wanted a "whole home" generator that I could run on NG for the simplicity and unlimited runtime. Fast forward to today, when I bought this workhorse! I brought it home, hooked it to the house and fired it up. I turned on all of the breakers and lights/ceiling fans in the house...

Great whole home generator for smaller home.
Would RecommendGreat generator that was easy to setup. Came with the 50a plug that I wanted for my home and removing bonded ground was effortless. Only issue I had was getting it to start on propane. The regulator valve is very sensitive and if you open valve on the propane tank too fast it will not flow. Wish it had a switch to alternate between bonded and not bonded ground.

Electric start generator
We purchased this generator during the recent freeze. We researched generators and found this one to be well rated. As it turned out we have not had to use it yet. However, we feel prepared for whatever weather emergency we may have just having the generator on standby.

Temperature specific
Would Not RecommendThis unit ran great the first night. The second night it got to about 3° and stopped running. Needless to say it was quite cold in the house. Neither Firman or Lowe's would take responsibility for this. Once it warmed up, it ran fine for the next 2.5 days. Don't buy this unless you're in texas or florida. I still have an open ticket with Firman and have yet to be contacted about any correction to this problem.
