## Description

The XP12000HX is the BEAST of the HX Series with 12,000 watts of POWER. This unit provides the power normally found in stationary home standby generators but in a more affordable, portable package! With a 460cc OHV DuroMax Engine, this workhorse is PERFECT for HOME BACKUP and can power most household essentials such as lights, appliances, and even central A/C systems during any power outage, storm, or emergency event.

Review: It's a champ! - This is a GREAT generator, and a great deal during black Friday. We live in a somewhat rural area that gets occasional power outages, but if the main line to our area goes down, we'd be out for days. This gives me piece of mind. Electric start is amazing. Comes right up! As I type this, we're experiencing a planned 8-hour power outage (power company is installing new poles). Plugged this bad boy into the interlock kit port, flipped the interlock and breaker, and we're at full strength. Right now it's running lights, 2 fridges, the hot tub (which I just now realized I didn't turn off!) and all our household electronics. I haven't flipped back on the HVAC yet but I'm pretty sure this beast will handle it. Easy assembly, all tools included. It's loud, but it's not designed as a quiet generator so that's not a ding, just letting y'all know. It's also quite heavy, but the wheels and handles make it pretty easy to move around without too much trouble. Safety note: PLEASE remember to ground your generators!
Review: Great generator - We've had this generator since 2022 have haf no problems. It starts everytime We've needed it. Absolutely best purchase we made.
