  • On the Fence? Don't Be!
Style: 12,000-Watt + Gas + Electric Start
For those wanting to skim this review, the good stuff is in the next to last paragraph. If you're looking for info like I was before buying this, the whole review may be a good read for you. I researched generators tirelessly when I was in the market for one that would supply total backup power to my home. I knew I didn't want to spend the big dollars on a standby unit like a Generac, I wanted the biggest portable I could find, which led me to the 15kw portable bracket. Of the various offerings in this category I found this Champion, and was shocked when I saw all the features it had for the price, which is considerably less than other 15kw portables! I'm not the type to always grab the cheapest option, but I've had a smaller 3500 watt Champion for years and it's always been flawless, so I knew of the quality and durability of Champion machines and decided to buy it. Shipping was through a local freight company and worked very well, I had it delivered to my dad's shop close to my home for access to a forklift for unloading, and boy was that a great idea! This unit is a BEAST and it's definitely not something you'll just toss in the back of a pickup without a few of your buddies to help, or a mechanical means of lifting. Setup is very straightforward and super easy, just involves putting the wheels on and dumping in the supplied oil with the nice supplied funnel. Inspecting the machine before startup I found the engine air filter to be missing, but a quick call to Champion customer service and Juan helped me out with getting the generator registered for warranty and shipped a new filter out immediately. It was an error during assembly I'm certain, but it was refreshing to deal with a friendly and competent customer service department, makes me feel very good about any potential issues I may have in the future being resolved easily. Now for the part that matters - how does it perform? It is a MONSTER! I installed a 50 amp generator inlet box to my house and wired it in so I can transfer from electric company power to generator power. Plugged in a heavy duty 50 amp cord and gave the generator a test run bringing the load on one thing at a time. I ran my 2300 square foot house with every light turned on, 2 car garage, 3 ton AC, fridge/freezer combo, and upright deep freeze, plus my well pump ALL on this generator on a 90 degree day keeping the house at 68 degrees inside. The generator took the load like a champ and I never saw the load indicator go out of the green area, in fact with all that running it only went to about halfway on the gauge. This generator runs my ENTIRE house WITH my central AC on with plenty of room for extra load to spare! As for noise, its a honking big generator and it is loud, but really not much louder at all to my ear at least than my old smaller Champion was. More time and an actual power outage where the unit runs for hours or days at a time will tell more about everything, but for an initial test I am beyond happy with this BEAST of a generator! ... show more

  • Great generator, and now with fuel gauge!
Style: 12,000-Watt + Gas + Electric Start
I’ve been pleased with Champion portable generators in the past and it was an easy choice when it came time to upsize from my 3500 watt unit. Like others have said, it’s a beast, but it’s expected due it’s 12kw capability. It’s louder than the smaller units, again expected. I’m very pleased with this unit thus far and would highly recommend this brand and any of their units to anyone looking to purchase a portable generator. I was pleasantly surprised to find my unit (model 100111) had a fuel gauge (as seen in the photo). The manufactured date is 1222, I’m guessing December 2022. My experience with Amazon and the shipping was very good. ... show more

  • Great product, reliability and quality!
Style: 12,000-Watt + Gas + Electric Start
The media could not be loaded. I bought this generator during the outage of power in Texas in late Feb 2021. We have a 2900 square foot home and this generator will power 60-80% of my home with my central Air/Heat. We love having a backup power source for outages. I’ll perform a load test once my electrician hard wires this to the circuit breaker. A friend recommended this brand to me and after looking at the reviews AND that it was made in the US it was a no brainer which brand generator I was going to purchase. UPDATE: I’ve attached a video of my first load test.. while my generator was on it was powering: 2 hot water heaters, my dishwasher, my central A/c (2900 sq ft) roughly 30 lights, and my microwave. The meter was still in the green on the generator so probably could have used a couple more small to medium appliances like a coffee maker. I like how easy this generator starts up and the display is easy to read. I hope my review helps others looking at this model. ... show more

  • This thing is a Beast!
Style: 12,000-Watt + Gas + Electric Start
I ordered this generator and unboxed it and was very impressed with the way it was shipped, there is almost no chance it can be damaged unless you turn the pallet upside down. Getting this off the pallet is not a one person job either but if you put the wheels on first you can then roll it off the pallet. PUT OIL IN THIS MOTOR once off the pallet. I put mine together to find that the battery was dead, I put it on a charger to find out the battery was defective so I called Champion and they have one in the mail on the same day I called. (Great customer service) I did jump start my generator and used my multimeter to check the outputs and they are what they say they are. It is a little loud but not unbearable but given the fact that this has the capability to run your home I guess a little noise is acceptable. I do in fact like the idea that a full tank can run for 9 hours. Side note: Now that you have this beast you can then tell the wife it is to heavy to pick up so now you need a Jib Crane. ... show more

  • It's a beast, but does the job!
Style: 12,000-Watt + Gas + Electric Start
Very easy to unpack and assemble even though it weighs over 300 lbs. Rolls easily on it's wheels though. Added oil, gas and tried starting. I'm pretty certain it would have started right away if I'd turned the gas shutoff on! Just ran it for a few minutes initially as a thunderstorms were coming in. Will load test and break it in tomorrow. Note that the manual doesn't tell you what oil filter to use (one star off on 'easy to use'). After going through user questions, I got a FRAM Tough Guard TG3593A that SHOULD work - we'll see tomorrow and I'll update this review. Finally after 5 hours and trying to change the oil, I found that Fram 'equivalent' filter won't fit. Did find a Mobil m1-103a though so I've got to wait for it! Knocked off one star for stupid engineers. ... show more
