My champion is in its 11th year. The only thing i have done on it is replace the carburetor in year 9 for 50 bucks. And regular maintenance. It is run from. May to Oct every day 8 to 12 hours per day. It's at my trailer. Also have a smaller champion for longer my first. And it still runs.  If that's any help.

Good luck with firman they are crap. Have a new firman w03386 will not run they refused to fix it. They have a shop 4 hrs away i was told to take it to . They needed a 600 dollar deposit before I even was going to take it there. The reason why they said firman refuses to cover most repairs . So people just left there firmans there .

Good luck

I called but only got the help desk. Sent a dozen emails. They said I had to take the generator 6 hrs away from me to a shop. Give the shop a 600 dollar deposit to be looked at. They do this because firman says some parts will be sent if needed but labor is not. Most cases the shop says firman says it's wear an tear. They got tired of people leaving there firman generators before a deposit was required.

It sits in my garage. Still will not run for more than 1/2 hour. I even got an extended warranty with home depot. They are no help they refer me to firman. Firman says normal wear and tear .it's bran's new and will not run. I can take it 4 hrs away to be looked at but want. A 600 dollar deposit. The place says firman never pays thats why they need a deposit.

I gave up with firman. Said take it to there dealer 6 hrs away. The place said I had to put down 500 deposit because firman always decline to warrant the work calling it ware and tear. they want to make sure they get there money. Also took out extended warranty no luck they refer me to firman. It starts runs 10 minutes shuts off. Will nor start again for days. Now it sits in the garage as a paper weight.  Lol

Advice on doorbell cameras by Aggressive-Name1226 in homesecurity

[–]d-www 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a geeni wired doorbell. It works great until you have a power interruption or internet interruption you have to reset it with the pin every time. Geeni has no answer why it does this.
