About MaXpeedingrods 3500 Watt Portable Inverter Generator Gas Powered
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
83% liked the sturdy construction, but 17% found it flimsy
The build quality of our product seems pretty good, considering it's a Chinese company and product.
After an hour of use, my generator developed a rattle which seems to be internal to the motor or inverter, indicating poor build quality.
I am dissatisfied with the manufacturer's quality control.
83% found maintenance straightforward, but 17% faced complications
I recommend purchasing a magnetic dip stick and an hour monitor during the first run of the geni to help in its longevity. The residue captured by the dip stick can only help in its longevity.
Within a year of purchase, my replacement generator failed with a broken crankshaft.
The generator keeps shutting off due to a fault in the overload switch, not because of low oil or overload.
I received a generator covered in oil residue on the plastic housing, front control panel, and inside.
93% were satisfied with the quiet operation, but 7% were bothered
For the price, the noise level is good, although not comparable to a Honda.
The noise level is quite low, but I wouldn't want it nearby for an extended period of time.
The generator's noise level is comfortable and easy conversations can be had 12 feet away from it while it's running.
The noise level is not as quiet as advertised. It is around 63-65 db at 20 feet away.
91% found it easy to transport
The outdoor generator is portable, versatile, and relatively quiet with good power output. It weighs 53 lbs and has wheels.
The generator has a pull-out handle, making it easy to move around where needed.
The generator is small and portable with 2 wheels.
86% appreciated the high power output
I tested the voltage with a 1000 watt load and it was steady at 123 volts output.
I am able to run my entire RV off of just this one generator and it has no problem running my heater, coffee pot, AC, etc.
With 1500 more watts, I can now run the A/C in my RV with no problems.
81% appreciated the long runtime, but 19% found it limited
Our generator has run for 44 hours and 16 minutes so far.
I ran the generator for a couple of hours with no load on less than a cup of fuel.
In reality, the generator only lasts for 4 hours on a full tank of gas when running an advertising searchlight that pulls 1180 watts, despite the advertised runtime of 4.5 hours at 50% load (1500w).
I noticed that the generator will start and run for up to three seconds, but it seems to starve for fuel.
The generator starts but seems to starve for fuel after three seconds.
87% found it easy to start up, but 13% experienced difficulties
The initial oil fill prep and plugging in for battery start was simple.
While testing the generator, I gave an A on output and a D on ease of starting.
