I have several different brand generators, Honda, Predator, Craftsman, and Westinghouse. I recently purchased the 11,000 watt DuroMax generator with the intent to use it with my Food-trailer. Well as it turns out I have put this workhorse to use on powering my Home. We have had two events where we lost power. First time I used my Duromax for home use the Power from the grid was out for 8 hours. This workhorse was all I needed. Second event was last week, this time I walked over to my garage, looked at the three generators in front of me and I rolled out with the DuroMax. Two hours later the power from the grid came back on. I received several calls from three of my neighbors asking how I had power. I replied with a bit of pride stating I am using a DuroMax generators.

Glad I got this generator. Perfect size for my needs to backup my home when grid power fails. Combined with my electric power stations it gives me all the coverage I need. Great features. Such peace of mind is very comforting.

I purchased the Duramax 11,000 Inverter generator to provide power for my floor grinder 220 V for business and it always had enough power to do exactly what I requested of it. Very impressed with the sound or lack there of.

I live in Florida in an area with alot of construction. So we have not only hurricanes and storms, but accidents and other power outages. Mines set up for whole house and with the soft start AC I can run everything, including my water well. I work for emergency services so in a disaster I'm away for days and I trust my family with this unit. Highly recommend.

I've been a DuroMax customer for over 10 years and previously owned an XP4400EH, which proved to be an extremely reliable generator throughout its life. That positive experience is the primary reason I chose the XP11000iH ("Big Red") over other brands when it came time to upgrade. So far, I'm very impressed with the build quality, features, and performance. The generator has operated smoothly, starts easily, and gives me confidence that it can handle my home's backup power needs during outages. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars yet is that I simply haven't owned it long enough to fully test its capabilities or establish the same level of long-term reliability that I experienced with my XP4400EH. Reliability is earned over time, and DuroMax has set a high bar based on my previous experience. If Big Red proves to be as dependable as my XP4400EH was over the next several years, I would have no problem updating this to a 5-star review. Highly recommended based on my experience with the brand and my initial impressions of this generator.

Opened box 2 days ago and added oil for initial run. The oil inlet cap is 100% blocked by a bundle of wires. Was a battle to get right amount of oil in. Not looking forward to next oil change. Why build a great generator and ruin it by a needless oil access design?

Needed this in Florida would rather have it now than waiting til a hurricane hits

Access up the oil plug is a booger. Difficult to remove the fill plug due to the wire harness placement. Otherwise generator is ok.

I purchased this because I needed a bigger generator and this fit what power was needed. I haven't had it long but have some initial impressions. It's way nicer than my old generator. I was expecting some assembly and there was none. Just connected the battery and added oil. It started up and ran like a champ. Easy to move for storage. It even looks good. The 4 stars are because the placement of the oil fill cap. The maintenance panel is low, and the oil fill cap was behind a wire bundle. It's difficult to see and was hard to get my hands on. Checking oil level before each use is going to be less than easy. The generator comes with some tools and other extras. Haven't tried the key fob yet, but overall happy with the purchase.

Generator is well built and comes with a lot of accessories. Changing and adding oil need to be more user friendly.

I bought the 11k 2 years ago. I use the propane feature, handles everything as advertised. The fear I had was was it going to start? Is the trickle charging getting it done? My machine cranked right up, ran smooth, performed like a dream. Confidence with my product. Ready for the next "well crap" from my wife.

Just opened. I like the way the wheel and how the engine is insulated. I was not happy with the access to the oil opening. Very poor design! Putting oil in and changing should be easy not a chore. Otherwise, love the dual fuel and so far liked the meter. We’ll see how it does at next power outage but except it to work well.

I recently purchased the DuroMax XP11000iH generator, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. This generator has exceeded my expectations in every way. The dual-fuel capability is a huge advantage, allowing me to run on either gasoline or propane depending on availability, which provides great flexibility during power outages. The inverter technology delivers clean, stable power, so I can safely run sensitive electronics along with larger appliances without any issues. The remote start feature is incredibly convenient, especially during bad weather, and the generator starts quickly and reliably every time. What impressed me most is the amount of power this unit produces. It easily handles multiple household appliances, including refrigerators, freezers, lights, and even larger equipment without struggling. Despite its impressive output, it runs surprisingly quiet for a generator of this size. The build quality feels solid and durable, and it’s clear that DuroMax designed this unit for dependable long-term use. If you’re looking for a powerful, reliable, and versatile backup generator for your home or property, I highly recommend the DuroMax XP11000iH. It’s an outstanding investment for peace of mind during outages.

My XP11000, works great. It runs my whole House. Upstairs and main level. Very simple to operate. Very easy to move. The directions are easy to understand and follow. Very very good on either fuel you decide.

Still don’t have a volt meter and it don’t count hours but everything else works fine and it starts every time

Public power went out a few days ago. I fired up our Duromax (started immediately) and ran the house on it for the six hours we needed it. The outside temperature was 94, but we lounged around in cool comfort in the house, cooking on our electric stove, watching TV. The generator ran flawlessly, with not so much as a flicker of the lights inside!

Used it for the first time ran it on propane perfect for the whole house and even the neighbors fridge

I bought this as a whole home back up generator. It's super quiet, and efficient. I have propane stove, water heater, and emergency heat pump. This thing will run every single thing at the same time (except for the dryer), which is awesome! Maintenance is a breeze, and I fire her up about every 90 days. I actually bought another 7000ih inverter for my well house, and they both perform flawlessly.

Just unpacked my new xp11000ih and it was an easy set up process. Fast start and now into the break in period.. Came exactly as advertised..

The unit shut down three times last night for carbon monoxide. The wind was very light and kept changing direction , so moving the generator around did not solve the problem. It might have something to do with the carbon monoxide sensor being located within 18 inches of an opening spewing massive amounts of the deadly gas. Instead of saving lives ,the CO sensor was senselessly killing my generator.

Purchased this Generator for home back-up power. Fortunately we have not had to use it yet but I have tested it twice now under full load and it powers my whole home as well as my well. It starts right up and is very quiet. It’s great to have the piece of mind.

I own a food truck and wear out generators every couple of years. I saw another food truck running this 11000 watt dual fuel and I couldn't beleive how quiet it was for that many watts. I asked of they liked it and they said they loved it. I decided this would be my next one to try out. I have been running it for 40 hours and this has by far been the best generator I've bought. It has so much power and the noise is very low for this size of a generator.. The features and build quality are so good, I'm sure I will get many years of use with it!

We were without power for a week after Hurricane Helene ripped through the Carolinas. That was when we realized that living in the area would require a backup generator. We shopped the permanent installed models, and they were way out of our price range. This Duromax checked all the boxes! It supplies plenty of power to run everything. We have it connected to our home propane system, so we have plenty of run time. It's quiet, reliable and easy to move to the outdoor pad when the need arises.

Bought generator to power my house during outages and has never failed to crank and perform flawlessly. Love the dual fuel option and is super quiet.

With the set up that we have, our DuroMax generator is able to run our entire home when the line power goes down

I would give it five stars, but accessing the oil fill is difficult. Otherwise, it’s fantastic! It runs my house with smooth power — no flickers when the A/C kicks in — and it starts immediately with the remote. Easy to move around and amazingly quiet for that much power!

Pleased with the quietness under load, keeping the neighbors from revolting. I like the remote start. The trickle charger is so reassuring that it's going to start and I don't have to mess with a battery. Smooth power for the wifes computer. Really pleased over all.

This is very good Insurance, power use to out several times a year. Bought this 11000 about 2 years ago power hasn't been off since.

I bought this model after buying the 16,000 Inverter duel fuel. I bought this for a back up if needed and to run my shop. The 11,000 runs my shop complete with office 2 head mini splits, My camera system, My alarm, Electric gates, Lighting in office and shop, Refrigerator in shop and my RV one a/c, refrigerator and outdoor kitchen refrigerator. I can shut down these items and plug in large air compressor if needed for large trucks. This unit is very quiet running wide open. Couldn't be happier.

Love mine, it's quieter than I thought. Great priduct
