Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 50 State 6830 Starting / 5500 Running Watt Gas and Propane Dual fuel Portable Generator

Not so good generator..

We bought 2 of these & both failed to work. Manufacture defect

Disposable product

Customer service recommends disposing of this unit if it requires a repair because they do not sell the necessary parts for repairs. Completely unacceptable.

Great buy

This generator fired right up on first pull out of the box on propane. Surprised how quiet it is

Super heavy duty 💪

Very easy to assemble

Just Right for What I Need It For

I feel like the price was reasonable

Easy-to-use and portable

Great price for the wattage it produce and convenient as it's portable to use.

Perfect size and more than enough power

This generator was the perfect solution for our events and has the ability to power all of equipment when supporting our Veterans and First Responders. The size is easy enough for me to load and unload myself and the ability to run off bottle propane allows for clean operations and easy loading and unloading from our vehicles.

Doesn't bog down with 240 Welder

Starts easy

Heavy for one older lady to move in box, get help

It is a nice size for our needs. Easy to add attachments and start using. Clear instructions.

Works great so far

part busted

wish i could tell you it is good but when i opend the box a part was broken! spent 9 hours on the phone sunday talking to both kobalt and lowes trying to get this one picked up and get me a replacement seemed like no one knew how to do their job!

Plan to get an adapter for your RV.

There was a little work to put the wheels on, etc., but overall really appreciate that this came with its own oil and wheel kit.

Get one

Works when needed

Not worth the money

I bought this generator specifically to run a mini-spit that needs only 1500 watts, but despite supposedly having enough power to run the mini-split it constantly trips the circuit on the generator. Every time I want to use the mini-split with the generator, I have to reset the circuit at least five times after it cuts off. What's the point of paying for dual fuel capability and enough wattage if it can't hold up to the pull? In addition, there are times when the equipment just will not start,...

Bigger then expected

So far so good

Powerful and relatively compact, easy to use

I was able to purchase this generator on a discount that allowed we to acquire a more powerful generator than I originally intended and I'm glad to have more power. It will run my refrigerator and microwave with no problem in the event of a power failure, there are plenty of outlets and safety features. It is too heavy to lift alone, so think ahead about ramps. I've had a little trouble starting it, but found that it will fire right up if I leave the choke in the run position. The noise is what ...

Good service

We went to buy this item the manager helped us, we had it delivered no issues.
