PowerSmart - 4450W Portable Inverter Generator, Gas Powered, CO Sensor, EPA Compliant, Lightweight and Quiet for Home Use and Emergency Backup, Camping

I got this to use as a backup generator for my house. It powers my refridgerator, garage lights/door opener, gas baseboard heater & some important lights with no problem. I am using 10W30 oil in it due to the temperature in the northern part of the US where I live.

Very good product for what I paid. It is quiet, smooth , and powers all appliances you will need for daily living. Power tools never bogg it down and runs hours on tank of gas , highly recommend

First off, I have several (4) of these and use them in my handyman trailers. They’re great for a small compact generator. It’s rated at 4400 watts and does just that. I can run my pancake compressor, mitre saw a table saw without an overload condition. My recent one just hit 150 hours and my oldest, a 3 year old unit has 1500 hours on it. The only maintenance I’ve had to do is oil changes and I swapped out the spark plugs to NGK’s and noticed a running difference. The biggest downfall for these is noise under medium to heavy load. They scream pretty loud and the second complaint is fuel use. Under heavy load, you’ll only get 3.5-4 hours on a tank of fuel. These are ideal for construction, general use and certainly good for emergency outages. Do yourself a favor and drain them of fuel if your going to leave them sit for any length of time.

My family and I have been using this generator for a few weeks now and I think it has done well so far. I'm only giving 4 stars because I wish it had a wheel kit. It seems to be pretty fuel efficient, it's a little finicky to start, but once you get the hang of it it's fine and it's not too loud, especially when the eco mode is on. I think it's great value for money, but we're just a few hours into using it. Hope it doesn't let us down eventually.

Great generator filled it up with oil and gas first crank started up ran it for 6 hours no problem!! Thanks
