I've barely gotten three hours on the thing since I bought it, but it seems to be doing pretty well. I'm mostly using it to run a 13500 BTU air conditioner in a camper trailer, which draws 12.5A, so 1500 watts. It needs to have the "econ" switch off to power it, and it has coughed a couple of times, not providing enough juice to start the compressor, but mostly it's worked fine. Time will tell how it holds up and whether it will have further trouble starting the air con. It's pretty quiet; hard to compare to the Honda because I don't have one to compare, but it's amazingly quiet. Easy starting. I haven't used the 12vdc output yet, but plan to hook it up to charge the RV battery soon. Overall, I'm happy so far. Minus one star for having trouble starting up the air con compressor a couple of times.Read full review

Haven't used it much yet. I like the weight, pretty light. Also real quiet. I had a Generac 2000 before. It was larger and heavier but about the same in quietness. Most of your newer generators are rated at what their model number says like the generac 2000 has a 2000W output with a higher surge. The DuroMax although called a 2000, has only a 1600W output with a surge of 2000W. This is the older method of rating generators.

I ran these generators for 3 days while RVing in the Colorado mountains. They are really quiet and are easy to start. I ran them in parallel and ran them single.I used around 5 gallons of gas.They are not as quiet as my Honda 3000is but they are alot lighter and alot cheaper than Honda.The parallel adapter is really nice. It had 2 different plugs. 30 amp rv and 30 amp twist lock generator plug.They seem to be very well built.

I have had this generator for close to a year now. It has not let me down, and I will say it is ultra quiet. I don't know why some say it could be quieter. It is a bit difficult to start in cold weather, but that is my only complaint. I use ethanol free premium fuel only. The generator is a fraction of the cost of a Honda. It seems well built an runs strong and quite. No complaints here. I use it for testing vending machines at my storage unit. It powers the compressors of the drink machines with no problems.

I cant give it five stars I have not had it long enough and it could be a little quieter. Other then that I have no complaints. It starts every time and does exactly what it says it will do. It will deliver 1600 watts of clean electric and no more then that. I use it almost every day and if I have one item that has a large demand I shut every thing else off. For $349 delivered it was a great value. I saw it for $500 in other places. I had it right outside my bedroom and it was too noisy to be right on top of it. So I moved it to a spot 25ft away and I found it fine. I shut it off before I go to bed most of the time. But I have a few times filled it up at night, put it on economy mode, shut off what I dont need and woke up with it still running. Under full heavy load it lasts only 3 or 4 hrs hours. If it last for a few years with no problems, at that time I would add another star just for value purposes.Read full review

Nice inverter. However, it goes into over load with my microwave oven that is rated max at 1500 watts. My Dirty Hand Tools 2000 watt Inverter Generator never has a problem with the same microwave and 25ft 14 gauge extension cord. I spoke with Duromax and they say the microwave has a problem. The microwave is used inside the house daily and never trips the 15 amp breaker and the other 2000 watt inverter powers it perfectly every time.

I got this bad boy on sale for $359, new...yes you read that right, only $359. At that price I could buy 3 of these for the price of a single Honda or Yamaha. After adding the proper amount of 10w-30, I pulled the cord a few times to lubricate the internals, and after 5 pulls you could feel when things were lubricated nicely. I then added gas, pulled the cord 3 times and it fired up. After letting it warm up, I kept it on eco mode and put my Skilsaw worm drive on it, no screwing around here. It bogged as I pulled the trigger of the saw, but regained it's composure quickly and the saw worked as expected. Switching it off of ecomode, it certainly didn't bog as much when starting the saw, but was at a constant higher rpm and slightly louder than eco mode. As far as loudness goes, this thing is quiet. If you are used to normal open generators, this is how quiet you wished those were. I have not personally heard a Honda/Yamaha 2000 but can't imagine they are much quieter than this. I carried a conversation with my 5 year old, standing over it, with zero issue/disturbance. Time will tell if it lasts, but initial impressions are high and with the bargain I feel like I got, I couldn't be happier!Read full review

Cheapest generator I have found of this type but doesn't feel cheap. Started on the first pull. I couldn't be happier.

So far so good. After reading the instructions, I did the recommended break in and changed the oil. Ran it this past weekend on and off for around eight hours on a tank of gas. Ran flawlessly, is fairly quiet and has eco mode to get you even better gas mileage. Question will be how long it holds up. Seems to be well built, but time will tell. Follow up to first review. After a year, this generator is still running smooth. Starts easy and good run time on a tank of gas. Only running premium gas is key to these small engines. Would still recommend.
