NEVER AGAIN
By Dave 
Massachusetts
Purchased 12/13/2011 | 
Review Posted 01/04/2012 
The Halloween snow storm was my 2nd time with losing power for 5 days. I will never again go without power again. Freezing, eating out, throwing out everything in frig and just the whole inconvenience of it. I purchased a Honeywell 6500 generator and had my house wired. This was the best insurance I have in case it happens again. I am very pleased with the generator and the price was great and delivery was right on time.

Not A Good Sign
By Jeff 
Springfield, Massachusetts
Review Posted 12/24/2011 
Purchased this generator because I needed a larger one to run well pump. I was excited and put it together the next day after I received it. Filled the oil and gas and went to start it and would not start. Backfired and finally got it to start but ran very rough. Turned it off and could not get it to start again. After being fully frustrated I put it away to work on it the next day. When I went to look at it in the morning I saw oil underneath the engine (not a good sign). It is Christmas Eve and I am sure I am going to have to send it out to be repaired and not have it for another 4 weeks.
