Customer Reviews

I live in a big suburb of Columbus, Ohio, but even so, power outages keep happening, and more frequently every year. I have my own well, so no power means no water, either. Two years ago we had a 7-day outage after a huge windstorm; last year we had 2 days after a truck took out a distribution transformer station. I decided it was time to have backup. After trying several cheaper alternatives, I finally bought this generator.
Shipping took about a week. They delivered it right into my garage on a pallet. It took me half an hour to wrestle it out of the box (it's 290 lbs empty of gas!) and installed the wheel kit. I poured in oil (slightly over a quart, NOT included) and two gallons of gas. I turned the ignition switch, and it started in two seconds.
I was surprized, but pleased, to discover they included two heavy-duty plugs (L5-30P and l14-30P) which sell seperately for about $25 each. I used one of these to build an "extension cord" that I could toss through a basement window to bring power into my basement, where most of my power guzzlers reside.
I hooked up my well pump, sump pump, backup sump pump charger, two fans, a trouble light, the freezer, the refrigerator, a big fan, and my electric mower. I cranked up the generator, and turned on the power. No troubles. I ran it for two hours, and the engine idled the whole time, only revving up for a second each time the well pump started.
So, I have nothing but good impressions of this generator. I feel a lot better knowing it's out there in the garage, waiting.

My husband purchased this generator and it was delivered on November 17th. The delivery and experience with Amazon was perfect. However, 41 days after delivery (typical) a seal failed, dumping oil everywhere. My husband has used this only 10 hours. After calling the company (Powerland) and leaving a message, they have still not returned our call. There is only a 30 day warranty on this product, but a 1 year parts warranty. We are still awaiting to hear from the company about the parts replacement. This generator was $900 and I would expect that it would run longer than 40 days..Very poor product and awful customer service.
