7 Yrs And Going Strong
By Dave B
Missouri
Purchased 11/04/2017 |
Review Posted 01/19/2024
Bought this generator in 2017, great deal on price back then. Wired house to accept generator for power failures. Luckily only have had to use it about 5 times for electric outages. Always starts right up. I run it every month for maintenance so it’s always ready to go. Battery just pooped out but not bad for a three year battery. Got 7 years out of original battery and I do keep it on a battery tender. Very happy with my purchase

Going Strong After 9 Years!

Review Posted 12/19/2023
We purchased the older model of this generator in 2014, and have used it 2 to 3 times yearly during power outages in the frigid state of Maine. It continues to start up faithfully every single time and runs our household lights, basic appliances, and furnace. After nine years of use, we cannot recommend it enough!

Very Well Built

Review Posted 03/03/2022
This generator is built well. The remote start works well in sub freezing temps. It runs quieter than the competition. I bought this for a customer as I own a manual start one myself. I’m blown away by the convenience of the electric start.

I Wish The Electric Start Was Not Computerized
By Bennie C.
Campobello, South Carolina
Purchased 01/15/2022 |
Review Posted 02/28/2022
I would give it 5 stars all around if it were not for the electric start. I am not a fan of computerized everything. The old style of turning a key or holding the button in manually with a manual choke worked so much better. This extra gizmo is just one more thing to not work right when it is very cold or it just doesn't feel like working.

Best Power For The Dollar

Review Posted 01/31/2022
Plenty of power and pretty economical. It's a little louder than I was hoping for and it should have the 50a RV plug but all in all a great generator. I also love the remote start.

Quit Generating Power After About 70 Hours.
By Richard S.

Purchased 05/26/2021 |
Review Posted 07/08/2021
I bought this generator in June 2021 and used it for an irrigation system that needed power because of fall 2020 fires. It arrived quickly and ran great for about 70 hours. Now it starts and runs fine but it won't generate power and I cant get a response from selling company or manufacturer.
