  • reliable, easy repeatable start, good design and nice features
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
The electric start works every time. The gas tank has a gas level indicator, so no guessing when it needs gas. An hour clock keeps track of hours used, as well as frequency and current. Also nice. Location of oil plug is easily reachable and pan can fit directly under it to collect old oil. It is about 100 lbs in weight. But very maneuverable with the retractable leverage arms. It is very economical in gas consumption. It has drainage features for gas when put into long term storage. Thoughtful design. The only draw back is that the voltage frequency is not as stable as inverter generators. So it isn't a good choice for powering electronics. My dust collector 2 HP motor had difficulty starting up on this generator, even though it only consumed about 15A. Could be increased start up current. Don't have the equipment to check this theory. In short well designed, well built, and easy to use. Noise level is not as bad as my pressure washer. ... show more

  • Great generator
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
“I bought this generator a few months ago when it was on sale, and last week, during a hurricane that knocked out power for six days, it really proved its worth. It kept the house cool, the food fresh, and the lights on. I ran it for 36 hours straight without a single issue. It barely used any fuel and was extremely quiet! I highly recommend this generator.” ... show more

  • For the money? 8.5/10
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
Very noisy I will not lie. C02 sensor is beyond annoying at times and will shut off if anything is close to the generator blocking airflow. BUT. For the money. It starts first try. The electric start works great. It also won’t die if you accidentally leave the switch on “run” which was a nice surprise after that mistake. It currently powers most of my 30x40 shop until I can repair the in ground wiring to the property. And it does so very well. BUY A GROUND ROD AND WIRE. Otherwise lights will flicker. Etc. Power with no ground: shaky continuity. Otherwise. I’m impressed for the price. Again. It is a bit noisy though. Definitely not something I’d run in a neighborhood for long periods. You won’t live there long 😂 ... show more

  • Great RELIABLE Generator!!
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
I purchased this originally for hurricane season. It got here on May 9th. May 10th had two tornadoes strike the house. This generator saved my life for the entire 5 days that I was buried underneath all the trees and debris. Very easy to use excellent quality manufacturing wise. Tough sturdy little generator not that loud, excellent value for the money. Highly recommend if you value your life. Ran the refrigerator, freezer, TV, power banks and two fans no problem. Carries a good load on very little gas. Not that heavy. ... show more

  • So far *chef"s kiss*
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
Arrived over a day early (thank you so much) and my 23 yo daughter and myself (51 yo woman) just turned one of the window ac units to fan FROM ac. Got chilly...only about 4 hours after delivery, set up and a run to buy gas and go to Home Depot where all of the multi outlet cords were gone :/ In Houston without power since Monday. MONDAY. I should've bought one sooner but was intimidated. Shouldn't have been. Seems very loud but it's my first one. May check out adding a propane one in case gas is hard to come by again...like earlier this week. Will come back if I have to whine or ask any questions okay? Previous commenters helped me go with this one. After a very hot 5.5 days, this costing around $400 feels like a steal. Currently running 2 window ac units and a power strip with 2 monitors, a gaming pc, and we're charging our devices off of it. Plan on adding a dorm size fridge when a capable cord comes in. Fingers crossed. We'll be ready with confident generator usage this hurricane season. AS LONG AS I CAN GET GAS! Picture is something the manual didn't mention in the starting instructions. A neighbor I asked to crank it up told me. This lever needs to be in this position to start. GOT IT? Good, very good. Edit: one tank lasted 14 hours running both window units and the power strip (plus internet). Checked the oil, all good. It was an easy gas refill, the auto start didn't work but pulled the handle once and it fired right up (like when the neighbor did it). So pleased, life isn't miserable now! ... show more

  • Disappointing Performance
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
It frequently struggles to start and often shuts down unexpectedly during use. The fuel efficiency is poor, leading to constant refueling. Additionally, it's louder than expected, making it unsuitable for quiet environments.

  • Great but for a couple of issues
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
So far, this has been a pretty good little generator, main purpose to power our RV while boondocking. Not too noisy, and starts on the first crank, but... 1. The RV plug (see picture) won't connect as the bottom of the generator faceplate will not allow a standard 90 degree plug to fully insert. So I thought, no problem, pop the cover off and rotate the socket! Well, there is one wire that is 1/2" too short, so you either have to add a different wire, cut the bottom off the generator panel, or build an adapter. Still trying to decide what to do. 2. The CO sensor is WAY too sensitive. Wind was blowing the wrong way and shut it down. There doesn't appear to be a reset switch for it, and unplugging the battery doesn't reset it either. Sitting here for 10 minutes now and still flashing red. Will update with more fun after my next trip. Overall, I would buy it again. ... show more

  • Worth the purchase
Style: 5600W + Single Fuel + Electric Start
Purchase this Wen generator back on prime day and got a chance to use it for the first time when our power went out after hurricane Francine. Ran this generator basically non stop for probably close to 30 hours. It ran like a champ! Definitely worth it. Did have one engine mount that may have been lose that came off but was easy to put back. ... show more
