For ten years we've been quietly building generators that contractors trust, food trucks rely on, and homeowners forget about (until the lights go out). No celebrity endorsements. No big-box markups. Just well-engineered power equipment, sold direct.
A 7,500-watt inverter generator should cost what it costs to build, plus a fair margin. Not three times that.
We started Arkhurst in 2014 because we'd spent years inside the industry watching customers pay $2,500 for units that cost $400 to manufacture. The hardware wasn't the problem. The supply chain was.
So we cut it. We design our generators in-house, partner directly with the same component manufacturers the big brands use, and ship every unit straight from our warehouse in Brooklyn, New York to your door. No dealers. No retail markups. No fine print on the warranty.
What you save is real money. What you get is a generator engineered to outlast the brand-name unit at half the price.
Founded in Brooklyn by a small team of industry veterans tired of watching customers overpay. First model, the AR-2000i, ships in November.
Crosses the 1,000-unit milestone. Adds the diesel D-Series for industrial customers. Hires first full-time engineer.
All models clear EPA, CE, TÜV süd GS, EURO V, RoHS, and ISO 9001 standards. Legal for sale in 50 U.S. states and across the EU.
Moves into a 48,000-sq-ft testing and assembly facility. Adds load-bench testing for every unit pre-ship.
Lifetime units cross 10,000+. Average review across 2,847 verified buyers: 4.8 / 5. Team grows to 38.
Every model spec'd by our engineering team in Brooklyn. We design for serviceability — every part is reachable, replaceable, and documented.
We buy engines, alternators, and electronics from the same Tier-1 manufacturers the big brands use — without paying their badging premium.
Final assembly happens at our Brooklyn facility. Each unit gets a serialized build card tracking every component installed and tested.
Every generator runs a 90-minute load-bench test before it boxes. We measure output, frequency stability, noise, and emissions — all logged.
The price you see is the price you pay. No "MSRP vs sale price" theater, no shipping surcharges at checkout, no lifetime price hikes. We list our cost margins on every product page.
One year, every part, no fine print. No registration cards. No "wear and tear" exemptions. If it breaks while we say it shouldn't, we fix or replace it.
You get a real person on the phone, in Brooklyn, who knows the product. No outsourced call centers, no tier-1 / tier-2 escalation maze, no chatbot purgatory.
We design for ten years of weekly use, not warranty-cliff failure. Our service log shows 92% of units sold in 2014 are still in operation. We're proud of that.
Every replacement part for every model we've ever sold lives in our warehouse. After warranty, parts ship at our cost plus shipping — no markup gouging.
Our quietest model runs at 52 dB at 25% load — measured at 7 meters per ISO 8528. We publish full noise curves on every spec sheet, not just the marketing number.
Same engineering, half the price, backed by a team that actually answers the phone.
