Customer Reviews

I've seen cheaper prices
I thought this inverter was decently priced for a 1000 watts. I have seen slightly better deals out there since. The inverter works well. It does what its supposed to, and is fairly easy to hook up. The only problem I have with it is, I have a small coffee maker I wanted to use that is rated at 600 watts, and This inverter just does-not have the power to turn it on. It blinks on and off because of the initial start up (surge). It is supposed to cover the surge...but it doesn't. So forget about a small heater as well. Other than that, it runs all small appliances and electronics pretty good.
