Living in South Australia with its constantly unreliable power supply both summer and winter, some outages lasting for days, I sought an answer to the problem with this generator. It has the capacity to handle my fridge/freezer, my gas heater ignition/fan (if needed) a pedestal fan (in summer months) and run my TV and a basic LED standard lamp. After filling with oil and fuel it started first pull. It is a little noisier than I had hoped but the advantages outweigh this.

Product as specified. It is simple and straight forward to use, starts easily and is very quiet for a petrol generator. Output appears to be fairly stable with less fluctuations than I expected. Overall good value.

I bought this generator to replace a Fuji Micro 3700 Camping generator that seized. It has done three hours so far and I am very happy with it. It starts immediately and it runs surprisingly quiet. Will be taking it camping from now on. One small improvement could be made about the location of the choke. It is difficult to close the choke after the generator turns on as the vibration makes it hard to get your hand in the opening to close the choke. Other then that. Very happy with the purchase...

My unit arrived damage. The main circuit breaker had been smashed somewhere along the way likely due to it being in line with the hand hold openings in the otherwise sturdy packaging. The labels on the unit were incorrect showing the choke operation to be opposite to what it should be and stating to add 800mil of oil instead of the actual 600mil required. I suggest you download the on line manual before setting up your machine. Edisons supplied me with a new circuit breaker which I fitted myself. On opening the control panel to do this I notice the 240 volt wiring is very light gauge and I would be loathe to run this machine on high loads for extended periods because of that. The annoying thing about the machine is the poor placement of the choke control which is very hard to access if you have large hands like I do. On the plus side it starts and runs well and is relatively quiet for a machine of this rating. It does however tend to hunt on the governor a bit when switching larger loads in and out. Still, for the price,a good value little machine that certainly looks the part.Read full review
