Bought last year and has only 1.7 scheduled maintenance hrs on it. Pull start. American made. Like new. Always dry-stored. Bought it because: 1. It is Consumer Reports top rated and 2. It will run through the night without having to get up and put more fuel in. Will power most of the things in your house and stop your food from spoiling during power outage. Bought a house with a propane generator so don't need it. Comparable Home Depot model $1100 plus tax. https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.gp-5500w-portable-generator.1000694023.html Asking half-price $550. `
