“Excellent winch for the money.”

Greg S.
10/13/23

Purchased my second champion winch after installing one on my brothers ATV. Winch kit #132502 came with all the items needed for a complete install. I chose to use a unit specific mount which was purchased separately. Very impressed that the rocker switch for the handlebars was included unlike a lot of others. Everything in the kit seems good quality/well made. Used it the first day out pulling a stump out of my way on our logging road. Excellent! Highly recommended addition to any ATV. 1997 Honda Fourtrax

“Do not buy”

Brian H.
8/19/23

I purchased a Champion 6250 watt model 100519 a little over 3 years ago I have used it about three times and now it's nothing more than a big boat anchor unless I purchase a new $210.00 control unit. I believe any other company with a GOOD reputation would have replaced it knowing it's only a few months out of the 3 year warranty. But they do not stand behind there product so I'm thinking they are not very proud of what they manufacture and sell

I have tried for one year to get help from Champion on their warranty. I have been unable to talk with any one. You are placed on hold and never answered. They will not respond to emails or regular mail. Buyer beware.

Very dependable and does the work I require effectively. Price was good as their was 40% reduction
At our local Canadian tire. The only drawback I see is I would like to have a battery operated start but
The price allows me to be satisfied. I am completely satisfied and would recommend Champion products

Outstanding Product. I bought this inverter/generator for craft shows/our rv. I was amazed how quiet it was.It took me two pulls for the generator to start.It is also very lite to carry. Comes with a funnel for the oil and gas.It was one of the top generators rated. I would highly recommend this product.

Tip for consumers:
VERY RELIABLE.

Purchased at Home Depot delivered to our house via FedEx in 3 days! Assembly simple and after oil and gas it easily started and worked perfectly. We bought it in case of power outage and hope to never use it!

I went to use my pressure sprayer and found that it had issues in the spray handle. This was on the weekend, so I looked up online to see where to get parts. To my surprise I found a 24 hour/7 day a week help and parts line. Not a 9-5 Monday to Friday! The representative was so helpful, ordered my parts threw warranty and I had them in 3 business days. Unbelievable customer service in this day and age. Any future power equipment purchases, I will definitely be looking at Champion first.

My family has a small log cabin built in the 70s that is far from any power source.
We decided to do a full restoration and needs a generator for the job.
I was looking for a Dual Fuel small and light. The Champion ******* was perfect for the job.
Super easy to start and is very quiet. Still lots of work to be done. Now time to spray a new coat of
Sealer.

Bought a champion generator 15 years ago. We used it to power our trailer and power the house when the power went out. This year the generator would start but not keep running when it was under load so I bought a new Champion generator today and if this one performs as good as the old one I will be quite happy

Bought this at Courtenay BC Canadian Tire for emergency home power outages. Followed all start up instructions and it fired right up, runs great. A little louder than I thought it would be, but no big deal... Randy S.

I just purchased a champion 2500 w inverter generator and am impressed how compact it is. Comes with every thing to get started, except fuel. Very easy to operate and it is really quiet, It also is relatively lightweight. I would recommend for tailgating or any outing that does not require heavy duty electrical loads.

Several weeks ago I purchased the 2000w Champion Generator just in case I ever needed one. Well, living on the Texas coast, we got a recent visit with hurricane Hanna on 25 July 2020. We lost power around 11 pm. Next day pulled the generator out of the box. Read the instructions before start up. Added oil. Added non-ethanol gasoline, Place it in an open location. Pulled the start cord and it started on the third pull. We connected at window unit AC and that made the 24 hour long wait before power came back comfortable. The Champion Generator did its job. Thanks Champion. Good job.

I bought a wood chipper and assembled the parts as directed. The hopper handle, which has two bolts, both sides were supposed to be threaded. One side was not. I figured the company would make it right, so I finished preparing the machine for use and contacted the Champion. Wendell, company service representative, said "return it to the store" if you haven't put fuel or oil in it. I had. They told me to provide the part number and I did. In two weeks nothing! No confirmation of my information or assurance that they received it. I've sent a number of follow ups and nothing. Terrible customer service, just terrible. First time buying from this company, may likely be the last. Take it back to the store for a minor, customer correctable issue? No consideration for the logistics involved. It's light work when wielding a keyboard. I'm pissed!

Bought this Champion Generator since my last one gave up the ghost. This one is great easy to start easy to move about and with electric starter is a lot easier for older folks like me on the arms and busting your guts out trying to get it started.
I have bought and used different Champion power equipment and never have had a problem with them so I know this generator will last a long long time.

First, i am a 4 stroke guy so when i saw this was a 2 stroke i was a little hesitant.
This machine has more power than needed to till our vegetable garden. It made short work of 3 year compacted soil and surprisingly easy to handle.
When i was done, i went looking for other projects to use it on, it is actually fun to use IMO of course.
It was easy to assemble even with the kids 300 questions per hour, had it together and running in 30 minutes and started on the second pull.
It's not suitable for a PEI potatoe farm but for a vegetable garden, flower garden or quick lawn repair, this machine is awesome.
Nice job Champion.

Just recieved my new 4500 watt Champion Inverter 06/19/22. I added Oil and gas for the 5 hour break in period and it only took one pull to start. Very quiet and handles my RV a/c unit with ease. The folding handle made it easy to move to the storage compartment, like wheeling a wheel barrow. So far i'm very happy how quiet and easy it is to use. I will come back and leave a review after a full weekend of camping using this unit off grid to help power what my solar can't.

Awesome generator will be using it with my travel trailer when dry camping extremely quiet and starts real easy by far the best on the market and reasonable price. The only thing that would make it better is if it would run on diesel fuel. It runs on regular gas and lp gas which is good enough. Tech support was great in answering all my questions on hooking it up to my trailer on lp gas.

Great little generator that we use at our cabin. Operates lights, fridge, toaster, microwave oven, coffee maker and ice machine with no problems. Will kick into high power mode when required and drops back down to low power mode automatically. Runs super quiet in lower power mode and extremely easy on fuel. Runs on one tank of 1 litre fuel for up to 10 to12 hours depending on how often you use the higher power mode.

I just bought the Champion Power Equipment 1150/9200-Watt Portable Generator with Electric start, and absolutely love it. Out the box easily assembled and it started right up. It has more than enough. Great generator, great price.

I purchased the 4250/3500 inverter generator to run my new high efficiency gas furnace system. I have a regular 5500 Generac standard generator but they could not guarantee no power surges. One of those would fry my system's operating system.
The champion is lighter and quieter and starts right up. Operating instructions are clear and concise. Haven't had to use it on a power outage yet.

Was very happy with the performance of this washer. Had several different ones in the past and this one outperformed them all. Started really easy, and love the quality of the hose and fittings. Nice touch with the handle easily flipped for tighter storage.

I have a champion 6.5 engine on my wood splitter, long tail outboard, a 9000 generator, cement mixer and now on my new ATV is a winch. Had a winch control fail and warranty was fast and easy. Good product and backed by nice folks who treat customers with respect.

The model # ******* so far is a great generator. The quick startup was easy to follow. Took only 1/2 an hour to have to ready to go wheels on. Maybe oil could be added to the box. We have frequent power outages and having chicks I needed to keep constant hot temperatures. This did the job and more. Ran at night and was very quiet.
I would recommend this unit to a friend... I expect many years of trouble free service

Bought the product after 5 days without power in the middle of Fiona. After many manual reading, help from neighbors and an hour on the help desk. It was a defective product and needed to be returned. When reaching out to this Canadian company, they sent me a pdf of their disclaimer from the manual that nothing is their fault.

We get a lot of power outages over the winter, up to 4 hours or so. Had to replace our unsafe wood stove with an electric fireplace which works great. What to do about power? We bought a Champion model # *******550W generator, it not only powers the heater but we run the lights and other small appliances making sure we keep the wattage balanced. We wheel it out of the garage ( bought the wheel kit) very easy pull start, plug it in and we're good to go. Beats the wood stove by far.
