like I said so far so good. 3 minor things 1)tank holds less than 4 gallons 2)is kinda noisy 3) this sucker is heavy. We have only used it 2 weeks thus far if anything changes good or bad, I will update. -- So far, so good...
Received as a gift and didn't get around to needing it for a couple of weeks. It started right up after putting oil and gas in; but almost nothing came out. It will not generate more than a few volts - like 5vac and 0.4vdc. The manual sure doesn't address this problem. Don't know where to return or have it fixed at no charge. -- looks good, runs good; but doesn't generate power
Great value for the money. The only downside is that considering its weight, it really needs a wheel kit. This was for my husband. He is adding wheels, but would have preferred to just buy a kit. -- Sportsman generator
I purchased this in May 07..Started right up,worked like it should when testing it with a vacuum and such.Stuck it in the shed until about Oct 07 and noticed the fuel gauge sorta melted and is unreadable.Havent used it much so I dont have much to say about it. -- Good unit so far
I bought this Generator due to its' Prime status and still have not recieved it 8 days after purchase. I thought prime meant 2 day free shipping. If that is not the case, a little notice would be nice. I hope it works. -- still not recieved
