This generator has started on the first pull every time so far. I haven’t even tried the electric start. It runs perfectly. I highly recommend it.

Purchased this generator for my elderly Parents. It works well. The float charger keeps the battery well charged and it starts on the first or second try every time.
Two issues 1 the packaging did not provide adequate protection for the contents. The bottle of oil that came the the unit was damaged and leaked oil. The unit had a spot where the paint was scratched. The machine is less noisy than I expected. You really don’t hear it from inside the house.

Easy setup. Had it up and running in no time. Nice power output for size.

Found generator to function perfectly. At 82 years of age,I reached a point where I could no longer depend on starting generator by pull string.
I was also able to keep it out doors by building a house over it to keep
it dry and it starts right up with the electric starter.
It makes me feel very secure knowing that the next blackout will not effect the normal functions of my home.

A VERY nice machine. It was easy to assemble, and after filling the oil reservoir, it started on the very first pull! It runs very quietly for an engine of this size.
Unfortunately for me, I found the same machine for $100 less the day after I ordered it — Oh well. . . . . . . .
