Summary: Best in it's Class
Comment: I purchased this generator October 2008, from [...] for US [...] including shipping. I highly recommend not only this generator, but this site. Dale Thum has been great to work with, and when the free cover was not shipped, he sent it immediately.
The generator started very easily (I didn't opt for a silly electric start). It ran continuously for 6 hours on 1.5 gallons of gas with 200W load. A Honda Generator may be great, but how much better can it be for [...]dollars more! I'm going to use this for emergencies, and the occasional off site work project. I don't need to spend that kind of money.
There are some things to know if you buy this generator. First, there is some assembly required(the handles, wheels, stanchions and removal of shipping bar) so get out the tools. Second, they recommend grounding it by using a copper rod pushed into the ground and connected via 12-14AWG wire to the grounding screw on the front of the generator. While this may not be necessary to operate the unit, it is very adviseable since you have rubber wheels and rubber stoppers and therefore no grounding of the generator to anything but you. If it were to short or pass a current the only path is to the ground through YOU! Be aware that you will need the rod (or a copper pipe worked for me), and the wire, and additional [...] is what it cost me. Also You have to have oil and a funnel with a long spout to put in the crankcase before operation of course, and they say only to use fuel 88 octane or better. That means you need to buy premium grade (mid-grade) fuel. That took me a little more time as I don't use that in my mowers, etc., and had to go get it. After all those things, I was able to start it up, and we were makin' power!
Again, after lots of shopping and looking at the reviews, this is the Generator I bought and would recommend, and ToolCity.com is where I'd get it!

Summary: And she just kept on coming on!!
Comment: 15 days without power would have been my destiny had it not been for the PwrMax4400E. Not only was it the quietest generator of all the gen sets running in my cul-de-sac, it lasted the longest time (12 hours @50%load) of all the rest on 4 gallons of fuel. After unpacking, fueling and adding the oil...I turned the key and it was all heaven from then on, I did use the pull crank to make sure it worked and it started on the first pull. She ran 12 hours with a 2-3 hour cooling off period in between shifts. It ran a huge Refridgerator/freezer, a small chest freezer, a 5500 BTU window A/C, several fans,2 lamps,a 31"TV, Boombox, and phone chargers. All without a hiccup. Followed the directions , plugged in the highest wattage first,kept the oil topped off and finally changed it after 15 days of use and it wasnt that dirty. This gen set was awesome and the best money I have ever spent for creature comforts. I would highly recommend this generator to anyone in need and as a matter of fact a couple neighbors did replace their older noisier models for a PowerMax after seeing what mine did. Planning on getting the bigger 10,000 watt surge Powermax for next years' hurricane season and power up right to the house CB box with a switch box.I was amazed and impressed. Loved the fact that it didnt require frequent oil changes as some gen sets do. 5 stars *****

Summary: Generator
Comment: I received the item just a few days before Hurricane Ike - it worked for the first week, and then just stopped working. I am very disappointed that the generator only worked for 1 week and wouldn't work after that. For a brand new generator to work only for 1 week really irritated me cause I was without power for 2 weeks due to Hurricane Ike and have to say the second week was just herrific - so hot and muggy. I even had to sleep in the car one night due to the heat. It was very frustrating and disappointing that a brand new item only worked for 1 week. We believe it is the carborator so I did call and requested a new one and they were quite prompt in sending it to me, so once I replace the carborator, I will give an update, but all in all after 1 week of usuage and having to replace the carborator on a brand new generator just doesn't seem right to me. To sum it up - I'm not that impressed with this item.

Summary: The PowerMax XP4400 Generator
Comment: By Ernie, retired journeyman lineman, Oct.,1,2008
Thie is a 5 Star, small, powerfull and quite Generator. (1) I must share the voltage switch is also a tap changer, do not switch unless breaker is off (open) or generator is shut down. (2) This generator and many have an aluminum cylinder and no oil filter, make your first two oil changes sooner than 20 hrs., I would recommend 6 hrs. for 1/st, 12-14 hrs. for the 2/nd, 20 hrs. then after. Break it in not out! Don't overload this fine generator and be diligent with oil changes and it will serve you long and well.
