My favorite feature of this portable generator is the ½ load run time. In the case of power outage this backup generator will provide you with power for 9 hours.

Cons
-There have been numerous complaints that the generator cannot run at what has been advertised.

Price
The last thing I would like to touch on in this All Power America APG3014 review is price. Considering the power output and running time this is a very cheap portable generator. There are more powerful models on the market that exhibit higher degrees of versatility as well as maximum wattage but for a much higher price.
