    Great power station, charges in 1 hour, connects over bluetooth and wifi and could be monitored and adjusted. Perfect size for a car. First charging cable melted in car outled (probably because it was plugged in incorrectly at the angle), after contacting ecoflow support they have sent replacement at no cost.

    This is an amazing power station that we use all the time. We take it camping, tailgating and just when we're outside and I need to charge a few things. It charges multiple devices all at once and lasts quite awhile. It will last all night long when camping to charge two iPhones and two Apple Watches.

    Excellent reviews from others on You Tube however, I live in Hawaii and could not purchase directly from manufacturer due to their inability to ship to Hawaii. Found it on Best Buy and ordered it online. Great price, free shipping to store and best of all the power station met my expectations. Powered my CPAP for 7 hours while also charging my IPad with 33% power left. Easy to use and according to other reviews, must use periodically to maintain the longevity of the battery. Will be ordering solar panels via Best Buy soon using my BBY reward discounts.

    After doing some research on these inverters, this manufacturer makes quality inverters with 5 year warranty. And compared to similar inverters besides the 5 year warranty and up to 3000 battery charge cycles, this inverter also charges in about an hour from almost dead.

    Excellent item to own. I have another one the EcoFlow pro portable power station but it's kind of heavy with more watt hours. So that's why I bought this one. Quick to charge and go and carry. The one I bought EcoFlow river 2, had a plastic case manufacturer defect, so it will be replaced and the money I invested for this ecoflow river 2 is worth the purchase. And it's light to carry around. And it will be replaced. It's worth the money spent.

    This portable power station has a good balance between portability, capacity and convenience. It’s super portable and it fits in a and it does not weight a lot. It fits comfortably in the Jackery explorer carrying bag. The capacity is above average. It charges my Dell laptop about 3 times. It’s convenient because you can use the app to check discharge time, power going in and out, and change the various settings. Additionally, it charges super fast. I haven’t seen any other unit charge from 0% to 80% in about 40 minutes. I would definitely recommend this portable power station,

    I bought this a couple weeks ago and it has already helped me out. Power went out and i was able to plug in the router so we were able to use our laptops to get work done. The ower bank allowed us to run the router for 7 hours before the power came back on. Easy to use, charge.

    I purchased this for an off grid camping trip, in the Colorado mountains. It was AWESOME to have. I used it for my phone computer (MacBook Pro), and lights. I only topped it off once, because I wanted to see how fast it would charge with my solar panels. It had NO ISSUES!! This is an awesome product. So much so, that I’ve purchased other EcoFlow products!!

    Awesome backup! I use this to power a portable freezer/fridge in my car and it will last a full 7-8 hours, a little less on a super hot day. It came in handy when the power went out to power out 30gal fish tank filter, heater, air pump and light. We also used it to power the tv, internet and sound bar!

    I live off the grid and have had quite a few power stations from various brands. This is my first ecoflow unit and i really like it. The included warranty is nice. LiFePo4 batteries which means it should last a lot longer than my other power stations in terms of the battery life degradation. Paired with the app its a really nice unit. Will definitely grab more products from ecoflow in the future.

    Got it on greatly marked down as my Christmas present to myself. Works great and as expected. Charges fast and holds a charge as long as you remember to shut it off completely. Lost a star for shipping with a European power cable leaving me to order an AC cord that works for me.

    We use this when boondocking to power my husband's CPAP. It is easy to use and charges quickly. My only disappointment is that it only has enough power to run the CPAP for about 5 hours

    Awesome battery backup that can be charged with solar panels. Charges quickly within an hour or so and can decently power laptops and other decent wattage appliances. Would definitely buy another. Comes with DC car charger also.
