Well packed for transit. I removed the top and sides. This unit is well built with two top mounted pickup locations. Engine and generator are well mounted in a steel pipe frame. Side door provides access to control panel and wiring connections. Simply a well designed and built unit. Can't wait to compete the installation.

So Far So Good

Review Posted 02/02/2019
I can only rate this on my buying, delivery and set up, as it hasn’t run yet, just set up two days ago. But I am very happy with the experience so far. After I had placed my order but hadn’t received product yet, I noticed the generator had gone on sale, I called them and they very nicely refunded the difference. Then I called them about concerns on how difficult will it be for me, a women, to accept delivery and move it into place....etc....Brian was so helpful with lots of tips and assurance and even called back to check on me. The generator arrived in good condition, well package. It couldn’t have been easier to get it. They had the lift gate and a power mover thingy and put it right where I wanted it. The man that set up the generator had no problems. So, I’m happy so far. I’ll update later if the site allows.
