Review on ⚡️ Generac Powermate PM3000i P0080601 Gas Inverter Generator - 3000 Watt 50ST by Maurice Vianes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Shuts down at a load of 1200 watts.

I've had constant problems with this generator. At first I was pleased with the apparent quality for the price and performance. My rig will probably never see more than 2000 watts. However, I always had problems with this generator. At first, I constantly had problems with the generator, which did not want to hold the load for more than 15-20 minutes, resisted, and then died. Then I found that the carburetor was having trouble flooding the float bowl. I've already bought a few parts to fix a few different issues I was having and this just burned a hole in my wallet. Now I'm about to buy a new, better carburetor for this thing (I see another review had this issue as well). I'm very disappointed and of course the support doesn't give a damn and I don't get a cent back. This thing was a big pianist in my butt and I would NOT recommend buying it. Spend $1-200 more for a better generator, otherwise be prepared for service. I couldn't even hit the 2 hour mark with this thing.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Very expensive
