  • Surprisingly convenient
First question everybody has about these things... "Are they noisy?" The technical response for this one is: "Yes. It is noisy." The practical response is: Noise is relative. Compared to other options for gas powered portable generators, this model is relatively quiet. It's louder than an average 18-wheeler truck exhaust and quieter than almost any gas-powered push mower. It's sound is adequately muffled that even if it would register high in decibels, it does not have a grating sound to it, which makes it conceivably comfortable as background noise, even if you were only standing 10 feet from it. Quite frankly, when I had it outside running out a tank of fuel as a break-in run, I was in the house and hardly heard it running. I almost forgot it was even out there running because I had to turn down the TV to listen for it. As for size, it's about as big as a moderately filled hiking backpack. Its weight is a bit hefty for the size, but the handle is in a well-balanced place and was easy for me to carry it around, walking 50 to 100 feet in the process. I just wouldn't recommend using it as a free-weight while jogging! Setup was easy. I opened the box, removed the top part of the packaging, which contained the oil and accessories, and was able to pull the generator out of its box with ease. From there, I followed the setup guide in the instruction manual to open the side cover. After loosening two screws, you have to "pop" the cover off as it had plastic pins that hold it in place. From there, you can easily access the oil fill hole. Unscrew the oil fill dipstick, then screw in the convenient oil-fill funnel that's included in the accessories. This made it easy to pour in the oil. Then pour in the contents of the included motor oil. The container of oil contains exactly enough oil to fill the oil reservoir. I tested the level with the oil dipstick. One piece of advice, keep that little bottle. You can refill it to the bottle's full line with conventional motor oil for a convenient, premeasured amount to add later when you do its recommended oil changes. As for its usefulness, I didn't test it under any scientific means. The picture I attached to this review shows it powering my workshop. The picture skews the size of the generator. It looks big against the workshop, but the angle of the shot and angle of the camera lens makes it look bigger than it is. The workshop is 18' wide from that view and is about 25-30 feet from the generator. I had all lights on in the workshop. Two LED workbench lights and two LED ceiling lights. I also turned on a desktop computer I had in there, an old CRT video monitor, and two pieces of specialized electronics test equipment. If you're curious, the test equipment was an old logic analyzer from the 1980s with a CRT screen in it, and a two-way radio service monitor from the 1980s. Both test equipment devices consume about 250 watts each. In all, I may have had about 750-800 watts of devices running and the generator just hummed right along. I wasn't going to overexert it during its break-in period, but I was satisfied it would handle my needs. I do not have any personal research on how long it will run under various loads. I don't expect a generator this small to run overnight. If you use this for convenience, like I will tend to do when I sell electronics at flea markets and want to let people test them, then this is perfect for me. If I need to power my refrigerator and freezer if the power goes out for an extended period of time, then I expect to be refilling its tank more often. But at least I would be able to keep the fridge and freezer running. This is a generator for emergency or convenience only. It's not intended to be a whole home backup generator. ... show more

  • Great value tool!!!
Generator is well designed. Was considering a Honda, but figured I could buy three of these for one of those. It's quiet enough to not aggravate the neighbors. On eco-mode the motor throttles at a lower RPM until a greater load puts demand on the generator's motor. Nice feature! This will replace my standard generator that is constantly down no matter how I store it. Seems reliable so far. Starts on first pull if used recently. If it doesn't, I use the choke and it usually starts right up. Runs really smooth and nice. I would buy again. Great to have during power outage! ... show more

  • Underrated little beast
Just went through a near week long power outage due to the weather (and atrocious planning from the power company). Bought this because it claimed to be quiet. Single pull start. Compared to all other generators, it’s quiet (65-75dB). Supported all our necessities for that time period including supplying power to a large fridge/freezer, window A/C unit and allowing my fish tank to continue operating uninterrupted. Easy to carry around due to its small size and weight. Can’t praise this little unit enough for helping us get through that experience. Don’t forget to read the manual before using. Eco mode definitely works for saving gasoline. ... show more

  • Good but.....
These inverters are quiet and affordable. They start on the first pull and sip fuel. What I don't like about it is the power output can't be accurate. I have a 13.5k BTU A/C with a soft start installed. A different little inverter generator was able to run it. This one couldn't. Since they're not returnable I ordered a 2nd one and parallel them. They both run my complete camper and still pretty quiet. I bet it would easily run a small window A/C. The seller shipped this quickly and I received it a day early. Very happy with that. ... show more

  • A great value for the money!
My take.....I’m in the construction business so I’m used to having a lot of different equipment. My brother and I have a Honda 2200 that somehow he ended up with at his house. I wanted to buy a similar small Honda generator but I just couldn’t bring myself to pay big money for the Honda because I don’t think I would hardly ever use it ....but... I want to have a small generator around just in case. After researching and spending entirely too much time comparing price, value and reliability... I was about to go ahead and buy the Generac GP2200i because I have another bigger Generac for 25 years that has worked fine. I then realized that this is exactly the same generator for $120 less in the Pulsar brand...Literally the exact same in every way except a different color. I think maybe the Generac has two USB ports and this has one (a real deal killer |:) A logical person and a reasonable gambler would bet they’re made in the exact same factory by the same manufacturer overseas. It started on the second pull and runs fine and I tested it with an 1800 watt hairdryer. Works great. It’s not as quite as the Honda, but $800 less! I’m sure it will run and last as long as the Generac would have because you would have a hard time convincing me they are not clones. (I think the Craftsman is a clone too) I’m not sure how much I’ll use it....but time will tell. If I was going to run this thing all the time three times a week, and I was into camping or similar, I might spring for the Honda....Other than that ...I’m good. Seems very good for the money. Just run it dry of gas when you put it away. Good luck! ... show more

  • The guys running Hondas will be jealous...
I like high-quality products just as much as the next guy. I just don't like paying a premium for a name brand. I owned one of these, which I bought on sale, for about 3 years before I bought another one to piggyback. So, I am a return customer. I've put about 500 hrs on one and maybe 100 on the other. They both work about the same. So, you can expect consistency from unit to unit. These are about 8-12 dbs louder than Hondas but produce more energy. The gas consumption is more than Hondas but produces more energy. The standard plug option is just that...standard but for $50 more you can get an attachment you're likely to already have if you camp out of a trailer anyway. Long story short, these are a third of the price of a smaller Honda generator and are a complete workhorse of a product. Anytime, I'm at camp and someone mentions something about how awesome their $1000 generator is I just say "Mine cost $350 and does the same exact thing, weighs less, and puts out more energy..." I don't know if it'll last as long, but the way I see it If I have to buy 3 Pulsars in 10 years for the same price as 1 Honda in ten years why does it matter? Go ahead and purchase this...you won't regret it. ... show more

  • High Value, Low Cost
High value, low cost. Clean, quiet and easy to start. I use it while van camping and have used it twice during power outages to run my fridge.

  • My first bad review
Bought the pg2300is in April 2023 (delivered in a few days) for a backup generator and broke it in exactly the way it explained to. I put just enough non ethanol gas in for the break in cycles and oil changes. Drained all the gas out the tank and used winterization treatment until it shut off making sure it ran fully through the carb/jets along with fresh engine oil. Great running machine/super quiet and starts 1-3 pulls max. Reinstalled in the box and inside a “dry box” inside my shop. THE PROBLEM….. pulled out of box around July 2024, changed oil,fresh gas, preparing for our usual outages and won’t run at all unless you drip gas at the carb or on top the carb at the throttle blade bracket which most times means a simple vacuum leak or main jet is clogged. No problem for me thank god, because it's my title job, but the “assistance” you can request through Amazon is a mostly a joke and ends with someone seemingly reading the “troubleshooting” page from the manual. I get they’re mostly trying to help the people that have no clue, but it’s ridiculous. I was not asking for the whole step by step troubleshoot method and just wanted to order a part to fix it. You’re OUT OF LUCK if you ask for such unless it’s changed now. I know there are other very similar/almost exact replaces on Amazon, but wanted a true exact part they offer(even though most all are made overseas). I’m ok with it being out of a return period since I can fix my stuff even though this thing is brand new, and not wanting a refund, to clarify that. The so called “assistance” is no real help but instead to make the assuming buyer feel better about the purchase like most over exaggerating Amazon/eBay sellers. I did purchase parts of Amazon listed “for the pg2300is” so we’ll see how it ends up and hopefully gets it back running. Just sucks because the reviews online and You Tube have good use of these machines. ... show more
