The wheels, front feet, and handle come in a parts box (included) that you self-install on the generator. The directions are very straightforward and installation was very simple.
It includes a funnel and oil for filling the machine (I believe 10w-30). You must install oil prior to using it! (Some people might forget which will ruin the generator!)
During the 8 days, I was running a Samsung French Door fridge, a Flotech Sump Pump, my furnace blower, and some lights / phone chargers with no significant voltage drop - steadily around 120, and never less than 119 volts.
I would run the generator for 2-4 hours at a time, and it seemed to be very efficient on fuel given the load I mentioned above.
Some notes that I think others may find important:
1. The 'regular' 120v outlets on this unit will provide 20amp and up to 2900 Watts, NOT 3500. In order to get the 3500, you need to use either the RV outlet, or the 30Amp 125v left-most outlet.
2. The noise level was acceptable. You did have to raise your voice if standing next to the generator, but it was not as loud as other generators I heard during the storm.
3. There is no 240v outlet on this generator - not that one was promised, but in case you were looking for that (220/240), this isn't the generator for you.
4. The weight of the generator was manageable. The wheels worked great. The handle placement is a little odd, and when dragging the generator behind me, I had to take short steps otherwise I would clip my trailing foot with the generator.
