Pros & Cons
Pros
Only reason for 4 is that the battery drained rapidly once inexplicably. I also have the 160 w solar panel and it charges it during the day nicely when sunny.
Fridge was set to 36 degs f with some stuff inside it and opening the lid periodically to simulate use. Good for location work instead of that generator. This eco flow is exactly what i wanted.
Plenty of power compact to smaller power banks. My only complaint is that it is heavier than other brands.
Cons
The seller is good with returning though, this the 2-star rating.
When charged my ipad, it drain half of its power. To connect to wifi is extremely hacky. The panels work with anything else, and even show input on thr lcd display in thr river pro, but the river pro % of battery just goes down.
Don't use it to power anything important like a fridge, cpap, etc. As is, it is useless. It is very troublesome in a long road trip. For it not to work the way they advertised is a scam.
Highlights
Quality
Satisfied with the quality, application is amazing, very user-friendly interface in the app and on the device screen itself.
This product preforms excellent for my use .
I see some people have had problems with quality glitches, but mine has run flawlessly so far.
I thought this would meet our needs, but wish we would have gone with the delta instead.

Packaging/appearance
I received the item in ecoflow's typical excellent packaging, i already own a delta with two 160w panels.
Competitiveness
My wife has to use a bi-pap since she had covid a year ago and she wanted to go camping.
Took this on a 7-day trip and it worked great.
But the actual wattage embarrassed me - it never exceeded 600w when using a single socket.
Unit went up to 1000w and would not run my coffee maker.
