PS Global 3300W Portable Inverter Generator Petrol 230V 11L fuel tank, Generator for Camping, RV Travel, Home, or Jobsites (Black)

The media could not be loaded. While the delivery took a little longer than expected, I was genuinely impressed by PS Global’s proactive communication, they kept me updated with regular phone calls, ensuring I was never left wondering about the status of my order. This level of customer care made the slight delay a non-issue. When the generator arrived, it was clear that attention had been paid to packaging; everything was well-protected, with no signs of damage during transit. Inside, I found not just the generator itself but a thoughtful set of accessories: a detailed manual, a spark plug spanner, an extended oil funnel (which later proved incredibly useful), rubber block feet for stability, and, somewhat unexpectedly, a UK three-pin plug, not personally required but may save you the hassle of sourcing one separately.The generator has a sturdy, quality feel to it, it’s certainly not lightweight, but it’s still manageable for one person to move around. The rubber feet took mere seconds to attach, instantly improving its stability. Setting it up was straightforward: after adding standard E10 petrol and filling the sump with 550ml of 10W-30 oil (the extended funnel was a lifesaver here, as the oil filler is tucked behind a metal panel), it was ready for its first start.I’ll admit, I braced myself for the usual struggle of starting a new generator, multiple pulls, adjusting the choke, maybe even a bit of knuckle removal! But to my amazement, it started on the first pull! With the fuel valve open and the choke set to half, a single firm tug on the cord was all it took. The engine roared to life smoothly, settling into a steady rhythm without any of the hunting or spluttering I’ve experienced with other models.As for noise, it’s about what you’d expect from a petrol generator, not silent, but not excessively loud either. What impressed me most was how consistently it ran, maintaining steady revs under load. The built-in meter is a handy feature, providing clear and accurate readings for voltage and runtime. I tested the output with a few appliances, and the voltage remained stable (any flickering in my video was purely due to camera shutter speed, not the generator’s performance). The inclusion of a standard UK three-pin socket is a practical touch, allowing me to plug in an extension lead directly without fuss.Living in a rural area where power cuts are frustratingly common, I needed a reliable backup for essentials like our freezers. This generator has already proven itself more than capable, it’s efficient, easy to operate, and feels built to last. While it’s rated for higher loads, I’d personally keep it under 3kW for optimal longevity, but for light to moderate use, it’s absolutely perfect.To top it off, dealing with PS Global was a pleasure, their customer service is a rare blend of professionalism and genuine helpfulness. From purchase to delivery, they made sure everything went smoothly.In summary, this is a well-engineered, user-friendly generator that delivers on its promises. Whether for emergencies or occasional use, it’s a fantastic investment, backed by a company that clearly values its customers.Five stars - highly recommended!
