Rated 5 out of 5 by from Firman Generator Starts immediately, works well and is reliable. We use it for the blowers of our greenhouses, if you want it for home go with the more powerful on like 4550, we also have that one and would not trade it for any other brand!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not overly pleased. I own three generators, the Firman is by far the worst, hard to start, have to keep it a half choke so it doesn't hunt. Not sure I'd buy another Firman

It starts and runs easily and well but I only have 45 minutes on it. I think its the biggest bargain at Home Depot but it is not stocked at my store; I had to order it. During hurricane season!! So far, a great generator for my refrigerator.

My first generator so I’m not sure if this one is considered quiet or not but I found it to be a little loud at the campsite but not overly noticeable from 50+ feet away walking by the campsite.

Will this generator Model # P01201 Store SKU # 1001036063 run a electric heater that is a; 120 volt, AC 60HZ 12.5Amps 1500W?

Asked by: KerMyk
Hi, P01201 has a starting watts of 1500 and a running watts of 1200. The calculation for wattage is Watts = Amps X Voltage. This unit would be a little under powered for your heater. I suggest moving to a larger unit W01781 or P03501.

Will this generator run my trailer just lights tv no ac not worried about ac but maybe the heat in the fall 

Asked by: Johng1970
If it is the Firman 1200 watt unit I bought, it can put out up to 1200 watts max. It's probably happier at around 100 watts max. Trailer lights and TV should be just a few hundred watts, so it should be fine for that. Don't forget that it's a bit noisy... and also that you need to keep it well away from your trailer when running because of the CO2... so get a hefty extension cord.

Can this generator power the following 1000-watt speaker for 1 hour at at time? https://products.electrovoice.com/na/en/zlx-12p/

Asked by: vc76
Normally speakers such as this one are rated for peak RMS output... so it wouldn't draw 1000 watts continuously. Even if it did, the generatop is rated at 1200 watts CONTINUOUS, so should have no problem, and given the loudspeaker is probably going to draw something like 500-600 watts RMS, it definitely would be able to power it. But you wouldn't be able to hook up many other power draws in parallel... One other thing is that the generator isn't exactly quiet, especially when running under heavy load, so it might compete with the loudspeaker's output.

How quiet is this generator? I camp, and I don't want to disturb my fellow campers. Honda has the best one for quiet, but, it is very expensive.

Asked by: Donny
62 to 63 DB. You may want to look at our 3000 watt inverter that is USDA approved 54 to 56 db

Is this strong enough to run a stand up freezer and full size fridge as well as charge a phone during a power outage?

Asked by: Jackie 27
This model has 1200 running watt, it may struggle running the appliances you mentioned, may be best to move up to an inverter W03081 model. It really depends on the wattage you need a quick formula will help watts=voltsXamps
