Following the quick setup, this generator was easily made functional the same day it arrived (once I reread the instructions to turn on the fuel valve ;) ). Appears solid and well made. Loud as a lawnmower I'd say.
You lift the handle up and it rolls easily. It seems like I'll be ready this hurricane season.

4.0 out of 5 stars So far so good
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024
I ordered the product a little over a week ago and received it within days. It came complete with everything, and put the necessary accessories on it easily. I have only tested it a few times and everything worked smoothly. It's compact and not extremely noisy. I purchased this in preparation for the upcoming doomsdays and feel that we are one step closer to being prepared.

The generator was received in solid shipping container. The instructions were easy to follow though better illustations would have helped. Start ipand break in went well so far no issues

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice generator!
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2024
Easy to set up and operate. Noise was acceptable. Good quality and should perform well. Maintenance instructions clear and comcise. The oil spout could have been a little longer. Also, one of the black pins to secure the wheel to the frame was missing--I used a cotter pin in place of it.

So I bought this is 2019 after a bad storm losing power for days. Got a scratch and dent offer by Amazon Warehouse and seriously only the box was damaged... I've now put 240+ hrs on it though I have only used the electric outlets so far and it's a damn champ... I messed up the pulley recoil start (my bad) but the battery start has yet to fail and even with 'older' non stable gas this thing has got me through. It got a workout(for me) this week with the Maine 2023 Grinch Storm it started no issues.
I can't say for sure legally but I believe it doesn't emit as much carbon monoxide as some reports show in general (my news said 100 idling cars?!!) Yeah no not this one, it was in my barn with the exhaust out the door.. the location i had to keep it in wasnt ideal but 2 monitors read 0. I had a monitor in my lower barn with my farm animals and one near my interior house door where the extension cord went through... neither Kidde monitors registered ANY manoxide but I ran it only for a few hours a time... I will say... Its NOT quiet... No experience with other generators so I don't know how comparable it is(especially when properly placed out doors *how do people do that 20'???*) Moves ok.. it's not light but with the wheels and bar it's ok, I broke my foot and you can manage this on a hard flat surface ok.

Overall impression: worth it's weight in gold...

5.0 out of 5 stars Power Generator for Home Power Outage
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2024
Our power generator arrived on time, boxed up perfectly and looked exactly as shown on Amazon. We purchased it to accommodate our home during electrical storms and power outages in Houston, TX. We were also impressed with its dual fuel capability, high wattage an it intuitive control panel. It will help our generator be simple and easy to use. Our Portable Generator also came with a complete 3-Year Limited Warranty and Lifetime Technical Support.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good quality, not quiet
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2024
I have a window A/C unit that runs on a 240 plug, pulls about 2700 watts. This works great for that. The dual fuel option is great, works really well. This is a high quality machine, but it is loud, and 240 and 110 plugs cannot be run at the same time. But that’s the rules for all portable generators that are affordable. This is the best one for the price that will run a 240 a/c. Very happy with this brand.
