Top Amazon Reviews

🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


This Champion generator has received mostly positive feedback from customers, appreciated for its robust power, convenience of remote control start, and quiet operation. However, there are a few design and functionality aspects that have been pointed out, including its heavy weight, fuel consumption and in one case, inability to power multiple devices simultaneously.

Pros

  • 🔋 Strong power generation capacity, capable of running the AC and microwave simultaneously
  • 🔌 Easy and convenient remote control start, eliminating need for cord pulls
  • 🔇 Quiet operation compared to other generators
  • 🎛 Useful design aspects like a change oil tube, padded/rubber feet, and good gas tank capacity

Cons

  • 🏋 Heavy weight that makes moving it around somewhat difficult, particularly into higher spaces
  • ⛽ Higher than expected fuel consumption rate
  • 💼 Some room for improvement in design -- suggestions include anchor points for stability, Bluetooth connectivity, CO2 alarm, and more
  • 🔥 In one report, the unit was unable to simultaneously power an AC and a microwave
  • ⏲ Some users find the remote control easily triggered and slightly dangerous, suggesting the need for a "long press" or two-button design

Should I Buy It?

If you require substantial power, value convenience and ease of use, and are okay with the potential for higher fuel consumption, this could be a good buy. However, understand its weight and potential limitations based on user insights, before purchasing.


  • Very surprised
Style: 4500-Watt + Gas + EZ Remote Start
I have to say that I was very surprised when I got this generator up and running, when I pulled it out the box it looked exactly as pictured, very sturdy and looked like it was ready to do some work. When I first ran it I was amazed at how quiet it was, so I plugged it in to my camp trailer and ran a few things that would really pull the power like the microwave and air conditioning, running both at the same time, it automatically switched from economy mode to full power mode, it handled both with only 3 bars lit up on machine. We mostly dry camp and stay off the grid, and have used this generator several times in the last year, and it has never let us down, the gas usage is amazing, especially on ecomony mode, and the remote start is great, even at a long distance, electric start is fast, and pull handle and wheels make easy work for getting it around. I reserched for months before buying this, and am glad I chose it, you will too. P.S. Pics show generator after on year use. ... show more

  • Remote Control Start - Game Changer, Change Oil Tube Dah!
Style: 4500-Watt + Gas + EZ Remote Start
The media could not be loaded. Good: REMOTE CONTROL Design Padded/Rubber Feet When Set Flat Gas Tank Capacity Layout of Panel Battery, Air Filter. Oil Access Panels Change Oil Tube! - Just pull it out, take cap off & Point Down Size Sounds Quiet Bad Remote Start Sequence - Have to turn on start switch (Stays on All yhe time if you want to use temote. Drains internal battery. (Work arounds include rewire the switch to a panel in vehicle. In meanwhile, run pos/neg wire to its internal battery so it piggy backs off vehilcles solar batteries. Remote Control Dangerous? - one "tap" to the start button and unit begins start sequence (Starts). Problem is the remote is easily triggered when in your pocket with other keys that easily rub up and start unit. Should be a "long press" or a two button combo press. Very dangerous if unit starts up when not intended perhaps if remote in a backpack and something leans against backpack (other bags). Unit may start up and run in its stored state in a gen box, overheat unit it runs out of gas. You come back from the lake and there is the campervan on fire! I see class action lawsuit here, so Champion. If your reading this, reward me by sending me a free replacement unit and a 50 foot 30 amp extension cord. Remote- easily misplaced and lost. Should include two in box. Weight? Okay, its 100lbs. But you get larger engine so its not peaking out all the time. No exhaust extension kit. - At least provide it as an accessory. I had to reach out to third party products without clear info on fitment info of exhaust port (dimensions, bolt sizes. Etc. Should be standardized and in manual. No anchor points on all four upper corners for keeping unit from sliding around. If it had cargo strap anchor points, problem solved. Work around is to attach to the handles which dont provide full slide control and may not fit strap hooks. Bluetooth or WiFi built in and respective app to monitor engine info (temp, hours. Volts, CO2 warnings) No CO2 alarm? Gas Guage: Gas guage is clumsy, mechanical indicator on top, hard to read if slightly titled. Still have to watch inside when filling it with gas. Back Lit instrument Panel: No back light for sockets - have to fumble trying to plug in extension cords into holes which are all black hard to get it in if maneuvering from side when in a gen box. Other colors? I like the yellow/black theme, but hey, why not offer other colors yes there is black, but maybe some custom colors - Pink? Have fun with it. Slide Out Trays: Slide out trays designed for the footprint of your model. Now exploring 3rd part, hit and miss regarding fitment. Again, as an standard accessory item specifically designed for it. Solar trickle charger port just to keep battery topped off. Work around, if "always on" is to use lighter socket with "car battery trickle solar kit." Battery location: - I wanted to remove the battery for its specs, but it required removing front instrument panel which ment to I had to remove the 100lb unit from inside the gen box. Pass. Generally, a great unit. If their was a one size smaller, with electric remote conttol start, 2500-3500 watt at 60lbs. Great. Their were only two at time of purchase with remote, both were the larger systems (I think Westinghouse was the other. Unit is quiet, and doesn't sound like tractor-trailer versions at truck stpps. Especially love oil changing tube. Dah! Others require clumsy messy unscrew and pray style draining methods. So thanks for that! Get it when price drops to sub $1,000 levels. ------ End of May 1, 2022 remarks. Will update with videos, photos, additional comments later as needed. ---- ... show more

  • Generator
Style: 4500-Watt + Gas + EZ Remote Start
This remote start generator rocks! It is a great little machine. It is very quiet, and the biggest selling points was the remote start and the large information screen. We wish if the duel fuel model would someday come with remote start as well.

  • Great generator for the price
Style: 4500-Watt + Gas + EZ Remote Start
Love this generator. It's quiet. Is it a Honda, no, but your not paying the Honda price either. I feel it's better built than the predators. Be sure to break it in properly. I run mine under my truck bed cover with a fan and the cover cracked with no problems. Went through a terrible storm and it got a little wet but no problems. It does with close to 100 lbs, for me that's not an issue to load and unload but something to consider. Will definitely get my use out of it and only time will tell about the reliability but so far after about a month of using it several times, no problems. ... show more

  • Super, super easy to start.
Style: 4500-Watt + Gas + EZ Remote Start
This generator is really heavy, and it needs two people to lift it up the stairs of the camper, to get it into the camper, to take it where you’re headed. The remote start works beautifully. (You can purchase an additional remote online at the manufacture website). We are so grateful, that we can push a button and don’t have to pull a cord anymore. This is a nice generator, it is much quieter than the two generators that we were using in the past to try and achieve the same amount of power. When we removed the unit from the box, we got it all set up following the instructions. We took it to the backyard, and let it run for a while. We actually did that a couple times. Later we hooked it up to the camper, where we were so excited that we were able to run both the air conditioner and the microwave at the same time. When we tested it at home, the outside temperature was 110°. Both the camper, and the generator were sitting in the shade of the house. We used our RV surge protector, with the accompanying app on our phone, and was able to see the amount of power that was being pulled from the generator. Everything looked really good during the two test runs that we did at home. We currently take our camper up to the higher elevations where it is cooler to go camping. My husband contacted Champion, and they sent the correct jet for us to use for the elevation where we will be using it. They did not charge us for the part or the shipping cost. We had to install it ourselves, but it was pretty easy and did not take that long. On our first camping trip with this generator, the outdoor temperature was 91°, and the generator was sitting in the direct sunshine. When we got back from hiking, my husband turned on the generator and then turned on the air conditioner. One of the kids wanted a snack, so they put something in the microwave, and the generator shut down when the microwave was turned on. We are not sure if it was the power watchdog (RV surge protector) that is in between the generator and the camper that caused an issue. (We bought the surge protector a year ago when we purchased the camper). We don’t know if the generator really could not handle the microwave, the air conditioner, and the hot temperatures outside. We were at an altitude of 6500 feet (we live at 2000 feet) We don’t know if the new jet had something to do with it, or if sitting in the direct sunshine for hours, caused the generator to have a problem. We wonder if the generator needs to warm up by running for 15 or 20 minutes before we use the microwave in addition to the air conditioning. So, for now I am giving this generator four stars instead of five, because we could not run the microwave with the air conditioner. We have decided that the current workaround, will be to shut off the air conditioner, run the microwave for a few minutes, and then turn the air conditioner back on. If after a lot more testing of things, in new situations, we figure out that it was not the generator itself, I will change my review and put back on one star. We really do like this generator, it functions better than the other ones that we had, and starting is so easy and convenient. ... show more
