Great Little Generator

Smooth, quiet, starts with one or two easy pulls. This generator is much easier on my aging shoulders.

An excellent generator, especially for the price!  I would say it is equivalent to its blue and red competitors where their price is double or triple the Champion.

I bought this unit to use while camping to provide power to my mobile electronics and gear.  So far it has provided me with an excellent alternative to having to carry a generator.  But keep in mind, it doesn't provide NEARLY the power of a generator.  So you really have to think about what you plan on charging or running off this.

It contains an 18amp-hour Sealed AGM battery.  This will provide 18 hours usage for an item drawing a 1-amp load.  The unit is very solid and well built.  It has an easy to read battery gauge that reads in 20% increments. (100,80,60,40,20, and 0%)  It has a built in 80-watt 110VAC power inverter, a 5v USB charging port, as well as a 12V plug that you can attach a cigarette light to.

In a nutshell, its a great little unit to take camping, but at 18 pounds, I probably wouldn't take it backpacking unless I had to.

This lil generator will do the trick. ONE trick at a time though. At night it runs our heater or light at the campsite. During the day it runs our music, coffee pot, pumps the air mattress or any other select appliance.  Just don't try to run them all at once. I like the small portability of it.

I have the15k portable Generac with the black frame. Its a beast heavy to roll into position over grass, but makes lots of good power where the little guys can't handle it. The frequency regulation is excellent stays on 60 hz. The voltage regulation is just as good stays right on 120/240 doesn't matter the load. Runs a business with nearly 50 amps load on the NEMA 14-50 outlet. with power to spare to run more freezers and ice chest off the L14-30 plug. In Michigan its run average 2 or 3 times a year for over a day in the last 10 years. with some extended power outages lasting near a week. No issues adjust valves, change oil and new battery in over 10 years. The generator  uses less oil than a smaller generator. Its been reliable backup power that replaced a small fleet of 5k units. You can't get a better generator unless you find an 1800 rpm unit.

I purchased this generator to use at a primitive hunting camp with no power... mainly for light, and for power outages at home as it can supply enough power to run the fridge, sump pump, and a few lights. I have since used it 4 times at camp and it has not failed me yet. The 7.5 hour run time is fairly accurate as we run it about 4-5 hours per night and usually get 2 days out of a full tank.
It's definitely not nearly as quiet as an inverter generator with the same power specs, but it's not obnoxiously loud and came in at about $300 less, so I'm happy with that.

I was initially very hesitant to purchase this Chinese made generator, but it was well reviewed, had the specs I was looking for, comes with a 2-year warranty and has US customer support. I took a gamble on it and I'm glad I did.

I have had mine for a year now (Dec, 2017). I got this model because I wanted a generator that I could carry to a detached screen house in the event of deep snow that would prevent me from transporting a heavier model on wheels.  I have a gas furnace so this is plenty to run my furnace and refrigerator and charge some batteries I use at night.
I had a 20 hour outage this past spring and this did the job.  I recently tested it to make sure it was ready for a winter outage and it started right up. My furnace is only two years old.  It has a variable speed motor and is duel stage, so plenty of electronics and it runs fine when powered by this generator.  I've checked the voltage under load with my Kill A Watt EZ Electricity Usage Monitor and it is fine.
So, even though this is a low end generator, it has done the job for me.

I needed a generator for a photo shoot I was on.  It is a great generator, started everytime on the first pull. Very simple to operate. But make sure you have a funnel for the gas filling, using a 5 gallon drum to fill can be akward and messy.  It is about the same sound level as my 6hp Gas Mower.  Not quiet but not super loud either.  I wouldn't want to use it at night at a campground, but for emergencies and non night use, it is fine.  For the price I don't think this generator can be beat!  I would buy it again in a second!

I use this for a MPG trailer with AC unit and microwave. Generator has plenty of power and always starts. My wife is able to start without any problem. Use fuel stabilizer and starts in spring without problem. Have also used for powering some household appliances when power was out for a few days.

I bought this generator in preparation for the predicted increase of hurricanes (and lengthened hurricane season for Hawaii). The generator started on the second pull. But the thing I like most is not having to fool with gasoline and having to add Stabil when the generator will be shut down for (hopefully) long periods. I highly recommend LP generators for anyone who needs a standby generator. The lack of wheels can be solved by moving the generator around with a hand truck (dolly) or, as I've done, placing it on a small garden or child's wagon.

I purchased this generator mainly for yardwork when I was too far away from the house to use an extension cord.  It does not disappoint.  It is easy to start, simple to use, and is very very quiet.  I cant imagine anyone being disappointed with it.

I purchased this generator August 31st 2011 and then we had "The Great New England Power Outage" less than 2 months later. Talk about timing. Having not even unpacked it yet, we set it up, added oil and fuel, and proceeded to run it non-stop for 7 days and nights. It worked flawlessly, started every time on no more than 2-4 pulls of the starting cable, and ran as much as 7 hours on a 1-gal tank when lightly loaded.  4-5 hr with heavier loads. It ran our refrigerator just fine. For other loads, we'd unplug the fridge and it would run a hot plate and toaster oven without a problem. Only saw the "overload" light once when we tried (and backed off) trying to run a microwave. Quiet, easy to use, and dependable when we needed it: I give it 5 stars.

I purchased this generator for my mother-in-law.  I own a Generac myself, which I am quite happy with, but decided to take a chance on DuroMax, given the better price and more favorable reviews on Amazon.

Pros:
- The generator started right up with the electric start
- The generator powered almost the entire house, and had no issues with voltage.
- The box came with a bag of wrenches to put it together.

Cons:
- As noted in another review, some of the bolts are located in hard to reach locations.  Luckily I had a slim profile ratchet set to put it together. I managed to cut up my hands a bit negotiating pieces into place.
- The wrenches included with the generator, specifically the one for the axle nuts, were not the correct size.
- In order to attach the negative battery terminal to run the electric starter, you have to unclamp the battery and take off a side panel in order to slide out the battery to get sufficient access.
- The screw on the negative battery terminal was stripped at the factory.
- Unlike other generators, there is no plug on the unit to trickle charge the battery. They do include a wire with battery terminals on one end and alligator clips on the other.  I was going to leave it attached to the battery, but thought better of it, since it would be a fire hazard if the clips touched each other and shorted out the battery.  I'll probably end up putting some sort of quick-connect charging cable on it later on.
- There is no easily accessible fill tube for the engine oil. They do include a funnel with a long spout to help, but the whole operation was really awkward.
- The manual does not indicate how much oil you need.  So, to fill it with oil, you remove the cap, put in the funnel, pour in a little bit of oil, take the funnel out, look into the sump with a flashlight, and repeat. This can easily make an oily mess if you are not careful.

Contrasting this to other small engine products that I own or maintain for others (a lawn mower with a Briggs & Stratton, a tractor with a Kohler engines, a 2 stroke chainsaw, a snow blower with a Briggs & Stratton, and my (albeit much larger) Generac): With all of my other engines, the engine is easy to maintain.  Plugs are easily accessible, oil is easy to add without using a funnel, there is an easily accessible oil drain or tube.  My mother-in-law's lawn mower also has an electric start, and it has a standard pin-style plug for the trickle charger, and came with a transformer plug.  Between the oil and battery charger port, we're talking about $2 of factory attached parts that would make this such a better product, and would make it possible for my mother-in-law to maintain it without my help.  I guess there is a reason why the Generacs are more expensive.

This generator is very stout.  The frame is solid and with the wheels and handles it is easy to move.  It was very simple to assemble. Started right up.  I would like to have an easier way t access the battery, hopefully it will last for years.  Did not try to pull start.  The auto idle was really smooth any when a load was applied it revved right up.  This replaced 5000W generator.

I really like this generator, although it does have a few quarks.  I purchased mine at Costco a couple years back.  I considered getting a Honda or Yamaha but figured I would give the Honeywell a try since it was about half the price.  I like the idea of the inverter generators due to cleaner power output for sensitive electronics.  I have used a Kill-a-watt meter on this and it does output 120v 60 Hz at varying loads.  It also achieves its rated 2000w output. I have used it a couple times during power outages.  I have gas water heater and furnace, so 2000 watts is enough for me to get by provided I vary the loads around the house (just a couple lights and one appliance at a time).

I recently converted my HW2000i to tri-fuel (will run on regular gasoline, natural gas or propane).  Runs like a charm on natural gas....even smoother than when running on regular gasoline.  All in all I am very happy with this generator.  I will say that it can be difficult to start.  This is one of the biggest complaints.  This is partly due to the fact that the gas tank cannot be gravity fed due to its location so it relies on a diaphragm pump to supply fuel to the carburetor.  The diaphragm pump requires a vacuum impulse from a hose going to the intake which can take a few pulls of the starter to get fuel to the carb.  One solution is to give it a shot of starting fluid before starting.  I found this greatly decreases the frustration during starting.

This is a great small compressor. Not a lot of air storage but lots of power and good recovery

I bought this generator 1 year ago. I plug my 24,5 foot 5th wheel camper in to charge camper battery and run lights. I tell you what it's the darnness, smallest generator I ever had. Hands down the best generator on the market for it's size and price. ALWAYS TURN GAS OFF AND LET IT RUN GAS OUT OF CARBURATOR BECAUSE IT'S GAS AND OIL MIXED.
