Would RecommendI have never owned a generator, but very happy with this one. Lowe's associates helped me load it in my vehicle, which was extremely helpful. Runs great and performed the way I was hoping it would. Would highly recommend this product.

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.

Electric Start is a MUST!
Would RecommendIce storm they said....I looked at my husband and said order two of these. My kids and grands will not freeze. We ordered two. They were ready for pick up the next day. Picked them up assembled them and delivered one to Chapin and one to Simpsonville. Now they will have one ready and waiting for any storm. My husband was impressed with the electric start and really liked this feature. So thank you Lowes for having them in stock.
Good bang for the buck
Would RecommendHave run my 4 bed house on it for 1 hour with no problem. This doesn’t include the AC or double oven, but TVs, gas heat, electric water heater, lamps, etc. No problems on gasoline. I still have yet to get the natural gas option working. I am thinking I need to upgrade the supply size. It is 3/8 flex hose. When finally warm out, may go with 1/2” hose connected to 3/4” black pipe into the 3/8 generator hookup. The thing is heavy, so appreciative of the big wheels and handles. The cord that...
