new to me...
This seems like a very good unit; only ran it once on propane, started right up and it ran fairly quite for a half hour under various loads. My intent is to only run it on propane only, gas tank will remain dry; but I feel sure it would run fine on gas too. Sorry I can give no idea on longevity. Time will tell . . .Read full review

Nice generator
Nice generator, with electric start & the ability to run on propane it makes an easy to use standby power source. Minor nuisance is having to buy a separate battery charger to keep the battery ready.

Had it for several years
Love it. Found it on sale with a $50 coupon so got it delivered for $275. Use it camping regularly. Power went out to house, was able to run 2 small ac’s, the fridge, lights, and TVs for hours while they fixed it. It’s straight power, so lights flicker. But it’s run flawlessly off propane and gas. Would def buy another one if something happened to it.Read full review

Buy this generator!
A really good generator for the money. It will save a lot of trouble during a long power outage. It also takes two kinds of fuel so it’s easy to keep running. By one exclamation

Does just what we wanted
We bought this gen a month ago for our pop-up camper. We have a StarCraft 3608 centennial and we needed a gen for the AC. Living in the desert here in AZ makes it almost mandatory! The unit came excellently boxed with no damage to any of the parts. The battery was fully charged and after putting the oil and gas in, it stared on first try. A little louder than I hoped for but I knew it wasn't gonna be Honda quiet. As to date, we haven't run it for more than an hour but hooking it up to the Pup, turning on air and everything else electrical, it works perfect. Barely makes a sound or stumble as the air kicks on. It picks up the drain immediately on ac start up and runs like a champ from then on. I will admit to date we have only run this for an hour with full load from trailer so I'll edit my review shortly after we use on a weekend within a few weeks. We plan on running it almost the entire weekend as temps will be 105-110 degrees. THAT will be the review I'd like to give. Factory Authorized Outlet did a really nice job on the price too. Specil was 324.95 with no tax and free shipping. Hard to beat for a gen this size with electric start!Read full review

Love the LP option
I love the idea that this can run on LP gas! It is so much cleaner and doesn't have the smell of gasoline all over. The exhaust is clean too! I intend to run it only on LP gas to keep it nice and clean.
Unboxing it was kind of fun, seeing how they used every empty space to get everything into the frame of the engine and how they supported parts to keep them from damage during shipment. The assembly instructions were good and if you are careful and take your time, there shouldn't be any problem. It took me about a half hour to assemble it, and I was in no hurry. I was pleasantly surprised that they give you all the tools you need to assemble it! I didn't need my toolbox at all! They also give you a funnel with a long spout to reach the oil fill hole. Very nice!
The handles are nice and fold out of the way and it is balanced well so that once you pick it up on to the wheels to move it, there is very little effort to push it along. After reading some reviews about receiving it with a dead/low battery, I hooked my smart battery charger on my battery to make sure it was ready for that "first" crank, but my charger said it was "full" after only about 15 seconds hooked to my charger.
I ran it for about 45 minutes with a small load attached to test it and it worked well. It was much, much, much quieter than my old Coleman 4500 watt generator which had a muffler smaller than a soup can. You couldn't even talk to someone when you were near it. This one you probably don't even need to raise your voice if you were talking near it.
I don't know what more to say except that I LOVE IT! I hope that the durability proves as godd as the initial quality!

Nice size generator.
This generator is just the right size, the gas/propane feature is a real nice. The electric start is great for my wife, not that the pull rope is hard to use either.

Happy with my purchase
I bought this hybrid generator because I am tired with the endless maintenance required for other gasoline-powered tools. Therefore, I never plan to put gas in this as propane is cheaper, readily available and easier to store. My understanding is that it runs a lot longer on propane (although I don't have enough experience to verify this). The carriage was pretty straight-forward to put together and the unit started right up with battery power. It is a heavy bugger so recommend 2 person lifting unless you are 20 and don't expect to live past 30. I adapted the exhaust to exit up rather than to the front (for my purposes). My only recommendation is that they add an RV 30A outlet as many of us use these for camping. Decibles in front of my open garage averaged 77db at 3' with my smartphone app and 61db at 25' away. My price was $429 in 8/2016 and after extensive research I'm convinced that is a screamin' deal.Read full review
