Honda Generator Works Great

By Mark

Lohman, Missouri

Purchased 05/27/2013 |

Review Posted 06/18/2013

We show pigs out of our trailer at several Jackpot shows throughout the summer. I bought this generator to run fans and clippers when we don't park near an electrical outlet. Works great, easy start and runs so quiet. We can have it right by us and still be able to carry on a conversation. It will run all day on a single fill up. Love it!

Don't buy the cover for this generator. IT DOES NOT FIT!! Wasted my money there. It will not fit over it.

I use this generator to power an oxygen concentrator while I am camping away from a power source out in the desert. I am a prospector and rely on this generator to supply me with electricity to run my needed equipment while doing this. I have used the generator twice since purchasing it for sixteen hours with very good results. I am very pleased with this machine so far.

Honda EU2000 Generator Cover

By John

Michigan

Purchased 02/16/2013 |

Review Posted 03/10/2013

The cover fits the generator well...almost too well. It's a bit of a struggle to get the cover over the top of the generator. But once in place, it does the job. The opening flap at the top to access the handle is a good thing.

All Is Good

By Kevin

Utah

Purchased 09/11/2012 |

Review Posted 11/14/2012

Good Generator - Good Cables - all is well. If it sits for more than 6 months it doesn't like to start with older gas but other than that it is great. It typically starts in 3 pulls unless its below 10 degrees.

Expert Response

If the generator is going to sit with gasoline in it you will want to use a fuel stabilizer in the gasoline. It's better to drain it completely before you store it.

Hurricane Sandy

Review Posted 11/04/2012

8 days & counting w/ no power! Our parallel e2000i's have provided power for furnace, 2 fridges, computer, TVs, lights- damn near everything - garage door opener & electronic doggie door!

I would recommend this generator to all- its unbelievable - 8 DAYS RUNNING & counting. I fitted both generators w/ extended run tanks and heat and hot water is flowing! It's going down to the 30's tonite in NY and my family is protected.

Expert Response

Please be advised that using extended run gas tanks can void the warranty. Allowing cool down periods, during refueling will extend the life of the generator. Also, following the maintenance schedule found in the owner's manual will keep the warranty valid.

New to generators

By Mike

Hyattsville, Maryland

Purchased 07/11/2012 |

Review Posted 09/15/2012

I'm glad I shopped different brands. I think that the Honda 2000 is a bit more costly, but I feel I got a reasonable price.

I'm glad I found Electric Generators Direct and I'll be returning to this site. The cart is an excellent choice for small generators like this one.

The purchase of the cover makes sense. I like the Camo color I bought.

Excellent Combo

By Jim

Purchased 07/01/2012 |

Review Posted 07/23/2012

Just wired this switch in today and did a test run--outstanding! Paired with the Honda EU200i generator its great. I have a condo & this system runs my gas furnace, living rm lights, tv, etc., bedrm lights & tv, and my refrigerator with ease. The Honda is so quiet, you don't even hear it outside. Take that CL&P!!

Would Not Crank

By Robert

Pahrump, Nevada

Purchased 06/05/2012 |

Review Posted 07/18/2012

Purchased new Eu2000i, Used it for two hrs, shut it off and it would not crank again, lost all compression. Now I am struggling with a authorized dealer to have it repaired through the mfg, warranty. I am getting the impression that authorized dealers resent repairing units purchased on line!!! It remains to be seen if I will get satisfaction on this purchase, so far it has been questionable.

This product is covered by a 3-year warranty from Honda. Please contact Honda directly @ (770) 497-6400 if you're having trouble locating an authorized dealer for warranty repairs.

Review Posted 04/03/2012

My son and I bought this generator for our hunting camp.We use it for lights,fan,tv,microwave,and ac. When we use the microwave we cut off the ac. The unit will run all night not using the ac on less than a gallon of gas,and you can hardly hear it run.
