engine seized failed – After about 40 hours of operation spread over 3 years the engine seized. Was always at full oil level,always operated on flat ground, oil changed each year/20 hours. Otherwise it started easily and ran well, quiet operation. Show details

Not perfect – I have only used it a few times,less than 20hours.it did run my air con in caravan just,electric toaster,kettle separately,not used for 12 month's,now it won't run the toaster.etc.tried running my 1000 watt Holegen light stand.and it won't operate them.just goes out on overload. I FIXED IT.,had to clean the carburetor,and I sprayed the electric throttle body with inbox. Show details

yes all good – that company seems only to stock great quality genet's and invertors. even have a fuel filter something other brands off internet don't have. and this makes them much more reliable. a fellow boatie has one next size down I could believe it had a fuel filter when I serviced it for him. it does blow smoke but. he has done many hours charging his battery bank with it.

Enough quiet power at a fraction of the cost – Brought this generator on eBay from Edisons. A fraction of the cost of the big brand names. Delivered in two days to Horsham (Vic) I filled it with oil and fuel and had it running in no time. I run it with no load for 1 hour then changed the oil (I use SAE30) and run it for one hour at 75 % load. Starts very easily and runs very quiet at idle.… Read more

With 50% load you can carry on a conversation right next to it. A bit louder at 75% and above. The cold start label is back to front so hot is cold and cold is hot. Had me stumped the first couple of pulls. If that is the biggest problem I have then I will be happy. Runs the caravan stuff but of course not all together. The way I have it figured I can get 4 of these delivered compared to one Honda so although I know this is not a Honda (I know I will be told this at lots of campgrounds) it does the job.
