 Can't beat it for the price February 17, 2007

It is a very solid generator, as long as UPS doesn't drop it off a 10 FT dock. It starts quick and has plenty of power. There is actually what looks like a regular car muffler on this generator, so it is surprisingly quiet for this size engine. Similar generators are about $599 plus shipping, I believe, so you can go through 2 of these and you'll still be ahead. But from my experience so far (I've owned this generator for 4 months, and used it about a dozen times, I think it will last many many years to come.

Just used this generator for the first time during a power outage. It started first pull and ran through the night without refueling. We ran it for the entire outage which was about 24 hours straight. I stopped it three times for fuel and oil (it used a little oil during the first 12 hours but it was probably due to break-in). The 4KW surge is great to start the fridge and freezer. It's relatively quiet, and seemed to run for about 7 hours on one tank. Can't beat it for the money.

I recieved the replacment generator today. Gased & oiled it up & it started good on the 2nd. pull. Hooked up 2 drills on it & they worked. Hooked the Gen. to my 5th wheel trailor & the air cond. worked. The T.V. worked & so did the Micro-wave. This will make my wife happy next summer & makes me the Hero of her life. Thanks for the replacment & prompt service. Also thanks for a product that does what you say it should do.

For $300 delivered to my door (I also got the wheel kit) it seemed like a decent buy. I couldn't find anything near that rated wattage for close to $300. I ordered it on Monday 26-Nov, and received it a week later on Monday 03-Dec. (Although the shipping was prompt, I'm accustomed to being notified when something I get from Amazon ships, and I got no email shipping and tracking notification on this order.)
As a test I hooked up my 1000W work lights and ran a circular saw, and it did fine. It will not run my air compressor, but I didn't expect it to; the compressor has a 4HP motor, which would be ~2950W to run continuous, and it could quite possibly need over 4000W to get it started. This generator has a big honkin' muffler and runs quiet. The documentation that came with it is amusing, it looks like they used software to convert the text to English. So the wheel kit installation instructions were useless, and it didn't fit quite right, so I had to improvise to get the wheels on. But they're 'real' pneumatic wheels, which makes it easier to move the generator around.
My first impression of this generator is good, especially considering the low cost. I bought it to use on a remote piece of property, as well as an emergency backup when we lose power at the house. Unless this thing has serious issues down the road, I think I'll be pleased with it.

I bought this generator about two months ago. My son and I installed the wheel kit, figured out the instructions and started it up. So far so good. Yesterday, Ike hit the Houston area. We were without power for 36 hours. I ran 2 refrigerators and a freezer and threw an extension cord over the fence for my neighbor who also ran two refrigerators and a freezer off the unit. It performed flawlessly. I wouldn't trade this generator for anything. It is not extremely quiet but more quiet than other units I heard in the neighborhood. The instructions are not the clearest I have seen and we had a little problem with the wheel kit, but on the whole a solid unit. Buy the wheel kit because the unit is heavy. This is a great unit for the price.
