Tools and Hardware Reviews of Sportsman GEN154 2,000 Watt 80cc 4-Stroke Portable Generator

Customer Review: Unreliable
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought the 1500 watt generator at Fleet Farm for around $200. It was a struggle to get it started the from the day I purchased it. Out of the 6 times I have tried to use it I was able to start it 3 times. Many pulls, replacing the spark plug, checking the gap, etc. Never know if it is going to work and of course the frustrating part is you typically have plans when you use the generator and it can ruin your whole evening as you sit in the dark wishing you bought a better generator.

I would not recommend this generator.

Customer Review: Made Very Poorly
Summary: 1 Stars

I needed a Generator befor going hunting, so I decided to go with this one. The first one I revieved would not run so I disposed of it and they sent me a new one free of charge. When I recieved the new one, it had two broken motor mounts fresh out of the box which I noticed on the first one as I was disposing it. I leave in two days to go hunting and still dont have a generator. Dont buy gas powered equipment from amazon you can not return it if it does not work.

Customer Review: @000 Watt Gasoline Generator
Summary: 2 Stars

I have found numerous bolts loose all over the generator. On the gas cap there was a large printed piece of tape saying to use 10-30 oil. If someone didn't know where to put gas and oil they could dump the oil in the gas tank. Then there is the instruction booklet which says to use SA or SE oil leaving out the 10-30 weight which is confusing. I now have to check under the engine as I have an oil leak. It could be a loose bolt. I hope so.

Customer Review: Don't buy this generator
Summary: 1 Stars

I purchased this generator and was very disappointed. The housing surrounding the pull cord is made of extremely cheap plastic that will break after a few pulls, and cause the cord to tangle. It is nothing but a headache. The motor mount where the engine attaches to the cage is also made of low quality steel that will also break on you. In general it is crap. Pay a little bit more and buy one that will not provide frustration.

Customer Review: Another Outstanding Value from Amazon
Summary: 4 Stars

It is green not red like the photo on Amazon, that's the only negative so far.
Buffalo tools quality control looks as good or better than most gas powered tools I've purchased in the last few years, tiller, string trimmer, snow blower, riding mower.
No problem starting a 10.5 amp leaf blower.
As for sound level, not bad but it IS NOT Honda. How many ear plugs can you with $600 bucks?
