 Very Satisfied With My Purchase
I just got the time to check out my new generator and I simply love it exactly what I needed. Called a rep from company and he walked me through steps to properly and safety start it. 😁

 Great Generator
This generator is RV trailer ready, (a $40 savings) with a 30 amp plug. It started right up (big surprise and is not as load as I was expecting. As I am using it when not in campgrounds noise is important. I saw Champion generators at a camping show/rally. I think they are looking to break into that market. This unit will do it.
Pros: I'd Buy It Again, Price, Easy To Use, Exceeded Expectations Cons: none George Recommends This Champion Product Product Expert George, Please remember that these generators are not designed to be run in an enclosed area. This will cause the generator to overheat and will void the warranty. more Was this review helpful? 0 0 |

Great Generator
Purchased this generator on sale a few days before Hurricane Irma. I live is southern Florida and Electric Generators Direct was able to have it here before the storm using expedited shipping. We went 4 days without power and this generator ran the entire time. I started it as soon as it arrived and it started with one pull and continued to start with either 1 or 2 pulls from then on. We were able to power a 12,000 BTU portable air conditioner, a double door Samsung refrigerator/freezer, a box fan, some lamps, a TV, and recharge electronic devices without a hiccup. Gasoline consumption was economical with a 4 gallon tank lasting about 8 to 9 hours since it was running at more than 50% capacity. Have used it since to power the RV BTU air conditioner plus the 8 cubic foot refrigerator/freezer from the 30 amp socket. It has turned out to be an excellent and reliable bargain. Just ordered a wheel kit which is available for it. Purchased this generator on sale a few days before Hurricane Irma.

Love This Generator!!
I would recommend this generator to everyone! Your company made sure this reached me one day before Hurricane Irma. The instructions were easy to follow, filling with gas was simple as was checking the oil. Starting the generator was easy. I consider this generator high quality, a good price and fairly quiet. Thank you!

Great For 30a Rv
Purchased due to low cost and built-in RV plug. Was able to run everything in the trailer at once except the electric water heater. (Not an issue, just used propane mode)
Since my purchase I've seen no less than 4 other people with the same model. Everyone I spoke with is happy with their purchase. There Is a wheel kit available.

Good For My Use
I bought this generator for use with my RV trailer. It runs the AC with a slight bogging of the rpm when the unit first kicks on. But it is minimal. I was surprised this unit is as quiet as it is. Not as quiet as a Honda, but certainly not that bad. If I am in a campground, I plug in. If I am BOONDOCKING I use the generator. So the noise level isn't as much of a problem for me as it might be for others, as I don't normally have any neighbors, or am in a noisy parking lot or rest area anyway. The price isn't that bad either. All in all a good unit. I bought this generator for use with my RV trailer. It runs the AC with a slight bogging of the rpm when the unit first kicks on.

Specs
We bought this generator because of the specs for the dimensions so it would fit in our storage area on our R.V. When we got the generator it was taller than what it said on the computer..We then bought a wheel kit so we can move it into a storage shed that is a ways away from our unit..We know it is a good generator as we used our son in laws for a week when our other one went out...
Jolene Recommends This Champion Product Product Expert Jolene, Sorry to hear that the dimensions were slightly off on this model. While we try to be as accurate as possible, there are times that errors occur. The dimensions that we have for this model match what Champion has on their site also. more Was this review helpful? 3 0 |

Storm
Bought it in October 2011, runs great won't run my air compressor 1.5hp. 17gal. But that's okay, use it when lights go out. It works good for that we have a storm coming here in south Georgia, northeast Florida, so I will need it shortly.

I Recommend
We purchased the generator to supply our trailer. It does a good job of that. It has about 50 hours on it now at elevations up to 9500' and temps from the mid-thirties to about 100F. After the first couple of starts during the break-in, the first five hours before the first oil change, it starts on the first pull no matter the temp or altitude. The only issue, and it is a very minor one, is that it rattles when under a high load.
We were fishing at about 6000' and in the afternoon it was in the mid to high nineties and we had the AC on in the trailer and were charging the boat batteries and the generator was rattling rather loudly. I have had difficulty fully duplicating it at home but it seems like it might be a loose baffle in the muffler. All in all not a great big deal. Also it is easier on fuel than I expected, which is nice. We purchased the generator to supply our trailer. It does a good job of that.

I ordered the generator online on a Tuesday, I received it Thursday afternoon, put gas and oil in it as instructions, and it started up on the first pull and ran perfectly. Our power went off next day during a wind storm and it ran everything just fine for 6 hours on 2 gallons gas.. Love It!!

Good Job
We purchased the generator to power our camper while out on trips. We just do check all the fluids and 1 pull later it's running like a champ. It powers the camper with no problem. Overall we're very pleased with it.

Boyfriend Really Loves It! Best Christmas Present He Received
Ordered it for him for Christmas he really loves it easy starting and enough wattage to run things in the house in case of power outage. They are predicting ice and snow in our areas for tonight. I feel good knowing that I even with power outage can still have a hot bath and hot food.
