Looking at a WEN Generator, and wondering if anyone has any experience using their products. They seem to be a Yamaha clone, and the reviews are great.

Have a much larger cap Wen Gen and its never failed me. Fast easy start on first or second pull.
Biggest problem I have seen with any gas gen is due to infrequent use and not draining gas. Drain gas & run to shut down & fill when needed again.
Second problem is power always seems to get restored right after I fill my gen😣
This has a fuel shut-off mode, which runs the gas out of the carb before shutting down.
I have one of their cordless electric chainsaws. Less than Half the price of others, and it cuts like a champ. Very happy.
My brother has one of the generators, and loves it. Has run it everyday for months as he has been building a house, and it has done great.
I have a Wen Model 199 heavy duty soldering gun that I have been using for i would say around 60 years. Still works great and i was able to get new tips about 10 years ago. --------------Ray
