Nice Unit
By Melvin. 
Carmel, New York
Purchased 08/17/2020 | 
Review Posted 10/08/2020 
Extremely happy with this purchase. Fair price, quick shipping, quality product. I’ve only seen it turn on during weekly testing until now but the power briefly went out last night and it kicked right on and sent a text and email to let me know! The peace of mind with having this unit can’t be described.

Solid System
By Steven M. 
Mora, New Mexico
Review Posted 12/05/2019 
The non-wifi (4 stars) unit I installed 3.5 years ago has operated flawlessly through numerous short outages lasting from minutes to several hours, and two long term outages during catastrophic grid failures due to very high winds and snow conditions, lasting several days each. I maintain the unit per factory specification, that I do not have to worry about scheduling as the unit lets me know when this is called for. It carries the whole home without struggling as I oversized by 32% for our 8000' altitude. The only thing we do not run during a power outage is the dryer - who does laundry during an outage? Otherwise, it is business as usual.

Our friends from Paris were with us during the last 2.5 day outage and they were impressed with this feature of our home. Also, being at 8000', we do not have any kind of AC system in the mix. Our new home was supposed to come with a whole home system, however, it turns out is was a small portable unit that I have to, drag out, start by pull, plug in and then switch over to it in the main panel moving specific blocks to allow the transfer - what a pain during the last major snow even at 0200 when the grid failed, again. High on our list of improvements is the addition of a unit like the previous one!

Review Posted 04/15/2019 
This was our first genset and we have been very happy with it. The intermittent use throughout the years has been reliable and unfailing. It is why we purchased a second unit for our Barndominium.
