Just what I was looking for in a generator I’ve got a lot of compliments on it and my dad is using it now and I probably won’t get it back.

Left a lot to be desired. Thank goodness I am a skilled tradesman and was able to figure it out. A picture not a drawing for the average individual would have been better. It fired right up and was able to interface the generator with the transfer switch. Total cost including 12KW generator was around $5K could have been worse I guess

Starts easily, very strong and powerful. Though i hope I do not have to use it much, it does power up a whole house of 1,600 square feet with central A/C.

Difficult To Use. Expensive
By Gabe

Purchased 08/30/2019 |
Review Posted 09/26/2019
The quality seems better than average, although a bit pricey. The problem is that it is so tight fitting that it is difficult to install and remove. What would it cost to add a few extra inches? I should have just bought a tarp at Home depot.

As with most of these generator covers, it should loosen up over time, making it easier to put on and take off.

The quality of this cover is amazing. It is weather resistant and heavy duty to store the gen outside when not in use.

Please note, storing a generator outdoors, even with a cover on will reduce the lifespan of the generator.
