Hyundai 2000W / 2kW Petrol Inverter Generator, Pure Sine Wave Output, Portable Lightweight & Suitcase Style, Low Noise, 3 Year Warranty

Considering the cost of other known brand names, it was the price that attracted me to this Hyundai. And I'm not disappointed.The generator is delivered drained of fluids, so will need fuel and oil adding before even attempting a start. It isn't supplied with oil, so ensure you have some 10W-40 ready for it. Capacity is a tiny 0.25l (250ml) from empty. It is also supplied with a 12V battery charging lead you can connect to the output panel, a little oil bottle, manual and a screwdriver.I spent the next 40 minutes swearing under my breath as I could not get the thing to start. Turns out, it was operator error so I feel I must point out the main power switch (the rotary knob in the picture) was a little finicky. Make sure you turn it to the 'on' position firmly. If it doesn't click when you've turned it firmly, it won't start. In my case, it was in the correct position, but I hadn't been firm enough with it. I'm sure it will improve with use.It's quiet enough in use (not Honda quiet, but also not Honda price), and at the end of a cable, it won't bother anyone. The two speeds are a useful feature. In low RPM mode, it will speed up if output demands it. You also have the option of running it at high RPM constantly.In all, a great little generator. Small, light enough to carry, and decent output. At this price, it's a great buy.

Unfortunately I cannot say much about this generator since it has never started. After investigating, I found there isn't any spark. So disappointing.UPDATE - the switch was faulty, so I had to replace it in order to get this "new" generator to work. Poor QA.

A really nice generator that starts easily (remote or key) and runs quietly. Output is steady and I have tried it with electronic kit (computers etc.) and had no issues. You need to buy a length of earth cable to ground the generator for safety and fill the motor with oil (not provided). The starter battery arrives disconnected in the machine so needs connecting (push fit cable connectors). The 2 x 13amp sockets are great for home use or for camping/caravan. The handle and wheels make it easy to move around and the whole thing can be picked up by one person if necessary. Looks good too and the display is easy to read. Comes with 2 remotes and 2 keys for start/stop

Once we figured out that the battery was not connected I aam happy with the product . Silent and very easy to start . If you have trouble starting the 4000w generator , check to see if battery is connected if you don;t see the led display light up when you turn the key to Start

Work very well and low noise

I needed this for my narrowboat having moved mooring to a pontoon without mains supply. I was honestly surprised by the quietness of this when running. When I'm.on the boat I can barely hear this outside when powering up the boat. Very economical to run and comes with all you need I.e oil, tools, handbook etc. I can't recommend highly enough. I have used this to run power tools, all facilities on a boat I.e lights, sockets, TV,fridge and all without an issue. It even comes with cables to connect to a 12 volt battery to charge directly. One thing I found was the smoothness of the pull chord.requires so little effort to start and does so 1st time, every time.

Spilled a bit of petrol and the blue paint smeared off - horrible

I read a lot of reviews before buying this unit and here's my advice for others considering a purchase.1. It's a four-stroke petrol engine - don't use indoors (one reviewer gave it one star for that)2. It's a 1000W max output. Don't try boiling a 3000W kettle (one reviewer gave it one star for that)Assuming you are not too stupid to own a generator, buy this one. This might help you get it started first time:1. It will arrive dry, i.e. no oil or petrol. You need to buy 250ml oil (10W-40W) separately, the oil bottle listed is the filler and contains no oil.2. When checking the dipstick level DON'T SCREW IT IN. Otherwise you will get a false reading, the oil will be too low and the engine will auto-cutout.3. Read the manual, but most other instructions are more obvious. Three switches and pull!You are good to go. Enjoy!
