So Far So Good
I recently received a Gentrax 3.5kW inverter generator through the post. It arrived on time and apparenly undamaged. It was easy to set up and started as per the instructions. I have only used it twice and on both occasions it operated to my complete satisfaction. Only time will tell whether it was a good buy or not, however, so far so good.

Its great value for money
Although it is very heavy but all generators are. It was as described and arrived in a very timely fashion. The instructions were clear. I set it up and it started first time. Going to use it free camping and also to get power to do work from the jetty on our boat. Great purchase

This is just what we need for the van.
Sent to WA in no time at all. Set up and started first time. - Tried it on the van and runs the aircon perfectly. - Free Camping in summer is going to be a breeze now. - Best value for money on the market.- Should offer the earth stake also with it for a fee.

Works great perfect for my use.
It runs the drill and angle grinder with no effort. Boiled the kettle no worries, but just a bit loud when under load if you wanted to go camping. Otherwise seems to be a great unit for the price cant complain. Perfect for what I need at the speedway.
Thanks guys great item!

Fantastic product
We purchased a Gentrax 3.5kw generator recently & was very impressed with product & service we received. It was purchased by us for using as we travel off the grid around Australia. This generator runs much quieter than the previous one we had & also runs so many more of our appliances. Very happy with this product & would definitely encourage others to buy one.

Excellent generator
This generator is fantastic. I can now run my water pump if there is a blackout instead of carting water inside.
It started first go and is reasonably quiet.
Delivery was very quick and the instructions were easy to follow. The generator also came with its own tool kit and protective cover.
I am very impressive with the quality.

Great value
The shopping experience was seamless with easy transaction and very quick delivery. The generator was well packaged and came with clear set up instructions. After fueling up, adding oil and priming it came to life after about a dozen pulls. Everything worked out of the box and it powered up devices no problems with reasonable level of noise. I bought for use as a back up power source and seems great value at this early stage.

Fantastic product, great Company
Product as described, price was fantastic and service great. Check on delivery details being specific before getting sent. Courier wanted to leave package at front door. Not advisable for $500 product. We would definitely purchase through eBay seller again and look forward to our next camping trip. Thank you very much.

So far so good.
Bought this genny as a backup power supply for my caravan when free camping in the case where the weather turns bad and the solar system can't keep up the pace in cloudy weather. This also depends on my power usage in the van at the time whether to solar system can keep up. So far the genny has started every time without a fuss and had enough grunt to run the air cond in the van if required. Only thing I'm not sure about is fuel consumption as it seems heavier than advised when I bought when supplying a heavy load it. It an also be a bit noisy when supplying a heavy load like the van air cond. In saying that overall I'm happy with my purchase. Was delivered promptly as well.

Good Service excellent product
My item arrived quickly and in a timely matter. The product is exactly what I require and as it was advertised. My wife and I can now enjoy the many trips we undertake in our travels when free camping and enjoy all the comforts of our caravan and especially the air conditioner.

Handy for the boat
I bought this generator in the first place to run as a spare for my 34ft boat.I have had no problems with it and it has no problems running the whole boat when the engines are off.This includes the fridge the lights the tvs and the main 10 amp battery charger.good investment considering my boat gender is about $7000.

very good - glad I got it
Easy to start even after standing for extended periods. Copes with any load I put on it. Instant power supply. Quiet while running & very economical to run. Convenient size, doesn't take up to much room. Whilst it is not light to carry it is not to heavy for me to carry on my own from place to place.

Great generator for caravan
Good generator to run a caravan wit it runs the air conditioner, water heater and lights it is great being 4 stroke so no mixing fuels I use a 30 metre extension lead so the noise is minimal I would recommend this product to any one who would want a generator for their camping purposes.

Great price for this size generator
Arrived on time. Started on the second pull. Runs my power tools which is what I want it for when there is no mains power. Would have been better if an earth lead and stake had been included. So far, so good but I won't sell my 2KVa Honda just yet.

Perfect for power in my shed
A perfect solution for power to my shed, as I only occasionally need to do some work there and much cheaper than permanent electricity to be installed. I may think about some more insulation to make it a bit quieter, exhaust especially may need some more insulation. Overall it works well.

Questions & Answers
B F.asked
Manual says it needs high detergent SAW 10W30 which I cannot find anywhere, is it a mis-print for SAE 10W30? any recommended oils as I'm struggling to find anything I feel safe putting in it to fire up, also cannot work out how to put oil in!!!!
2 answers
That is what I thought so I used a good quality Sae30 engine oil which is used in most 4 stroke stationary engines I live in WA so 10w30 is probably not so important
Most mineral oils are of reasonably high detergent content, so any quality 10/30 oil will do the job. The purpose of the instruction is to warn you against using any non-detergent synthetic oils, which while of higher quality, don't have the ability to prevent sludge build-up

Hello. I wrote about the generator having problems..well it will not start or go at all, really needs to be sent back .... how do I do this .....need help...
2 answers
Judy, if you still have the packaging that the generator arrived in, then repack it and address it to the retailer you bought it from. Sadly, as was indicated, you'll have to pay the postage, but once it's fixed, then it's posted back to you at no charge. Check a local courier and see if they are cheaper than Aust Post. Alternatively,if you have a friend with the necessary know-how, then perhaps he/she can fire sort the problem for you, or even drop it in to a local car mechanic, they'll have the knowledge to get it going.
Was going to buy one but not if all these posts say they are no good
