Briggs & Stratton 030241 Portable Generator - My Personal Experience
After experiencing a 28 hour power outage back in winter, I made up my mind - I'm going to get a generator that would keep the essential home appliances up and running - the heater, fridge, microwave, and those are just to name a few.

I grabbed the Briggs & Stratton 030241 Portable Generator because of 2 things - it comes at a good price and the wattage ratings are sufficient for my needs. And it also comes with extra starting power for my motors.

The listing said that it should take 10 days to arrive, BUT fortunately, it only took 3 (a huge plus). When it got here, I did a couple of wiring to allow me to connect the generator to my electric dryer outlet.

I took it outside on a cool day and started filling it with a gas and oil mixture. I switched the main house breaker off, and plugged the Briggs & Stratton 030241 Portable Generator in. And it started on the first pull!

After that, we turned the furnace on and let everything - all of the appliances in the house work. It was perfect - everything was running smoothly...flawlessly until the generator ran out of gas after an hour or so.

I highly recommend this unit especially if you are someone who is living in an area where hurricanes strike all the time. The Briggs & Stratton 030241 Portable Generator is huge life saver!
