I bought this generator in September 2022 right before hurricane Dorian because my house used to lose power ALL the time - like a strong breeze might knock it out. However, it seems like they fixed the grid or something because we didn't lose power once in that storm and have had no need for a generator since then. The generator has never been taken out of the box - it's still exactly like I got it 2022. Still have the original receipt, too. Comparable generators from a store are like $950+HST.
