Overall Feedback:
79% positive
88% found it easy to transport
The connections are easy to use and the generators are easily portable.
It is easy to maneuver and start.
The inverter-generator is easy to move, lightweight and quieter than the big generator.
I can easily maneuver the unit on wheels with a collapsible handle for pulling it.
80% appreciated the fuel efficiency
I was surprised by the fuel efficiency of the generator during my varied tests. The fuel meter hit zero but it just kept running.
69% appreciated the low maintenance, though 31% didn't
I plan to utilize all of the features of the inverter generator and also plan to run it on propane in the coming months.
I am frustrated with the maintenance requirements of the inverter-generator. I had to take it to a repair center straight from the box.
After following the directions from the manual for filling with oil and gas, the generator would only run for 20 to 30 seconds then shut down.
During a storm, the generator was inoperable and oscillating from high to low engine speeds, and leaking fuel.
87% liked the quiet operation, but 13% found it loud
The noise level is a bit louder than I thought, but it's not an issue for me.
The noise level of this small inverter is similar to others.
I was disappointed with the noise level of the generator, which was louder than expected.
The actual noise level was much louder than advertised, at 58dBA.
