About WEN 56475 4750-Watt Gasoline Powered Portable Generator
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
95% appreciated the long runtime
During the 28-hour power outage, I ran the generator almost nonstop, giving it a 15-minute break every couple of hours during the daytime. This demonstrates the generator's impressive runtime.
93% appreciated the high power output, but 7% found it insufficient
I was able to run 14.5 Amps in a 20 Amps outlet without popping the breaker on the generator.
I need a generator with a 240 volt output to power my new Hobart mig welder as my previous generator didn't have it.
I have noticed that the generator is advertised as 4750 surge watts and about 3500 running but it does not perform as advertised.
My only complaint with this generator is that the fuel tank could have been larger like my previous generator, resulting in less run time per tank of fuel.
96% found it easy to start up, but 4% experienced difficulties
With the choke on, I can easily start the engine on the first try, but without it, the pull start is difficult.
94% found it easy to transport
The unit is easy to move around and not too heavy, manageable even for my 80 year old parents.
I love the portability of the generator, although it is a bit loud, it is tolerable and not much different than a power washer noise.
93% were satisfied with the quiet operation
I can have a conversation with slightly elevated tones while the generator is running, indicating that the noise level is low.
I bought the generator because of its noise level. It is quieter than I thought and as other reviewers mentioned.
92% found maintenance straightforward, but 8% faced complications
I have to take care of the gas engine and not just leave it gassed in shed for a year and expect it to work at need.
After a year of perfect storage conditions in the garage, I faced major issues with the generator due to cheap parts.
90% liked the fuel efficiency, but 10% faced issues
The engine starts right up with the choke lever in the start position and does not require a prime before a start, indicating fuel efficiency.
The fuel gauge doesn't move until a gallon of gas is used, which could be a good thing if I push things to the limit.
92% liked the sturdy construction, but 8% found it flimsy
I found slight damage on 2 metal supports when I flipped it up to install the wheels. It looks like the box was dropped to cause the damage.
