Love the tri-fuel capability!
I bought this unit for emergency power generation with the expectation of running heating/food storage/select lights. The output is certainly sufficient for that purpose. The primary reason for purchase was the tri-fuel capability (gasoline/propane/natural gas) which makes it very likely that I will have fuel options, even in the event of a large scale, longer term disruption. The unit is well packaged and documented, set up easily and started instantly providing power as expected in seconds at 118 VAC and seemingly pretty stable. Seems decently built.

It works but with some issues
I bought this generator as an emergency backup for my home. I tested it only once and it’s very loud when running even with no load. The lights in my house were flickering the entire time. My UPS units were clicking on and off so the power/voltage appears to be dirty. Use caution with electronics. After starting the furnace and then shutting it off the unit never seemed to regulate the voltage the way it was regulated prior to the furnace starting. I’m a bit worried about it. I don’t know if I received a broken unit or if this is normal. I’m never owned a generator before.

Solid and consistent
I bought this generator to update my old 1980 gas generator. It arrived just after the power went out for 4 days following a heavy storm. The tri-fuel optionality is unbeatable and switching between modes is simple.
It came as described with easy to follow instructions, simple assembly, quality parts and plenty of power out of the box. I was able to run everything i needed. It can be connected to a generlink switch or send power through extension cords.
A quality purchase. I would choose Firman again.

Great features and power availability
This generator was a great buy when it was on sale. I bought it primarily because I could hook it up to my Natural Gas line used with my barbecue so I would not have to store propane or gasoline. However, I like the flexibility it offers if I ever need to use it elsewhere. Still have to install a kit to get power into the house (I bought a King Canada Generator Home Connection Kit) and buy a 50-foot 30Amp extension cord.
