I've purchased 3 of the refurbished river 2s. 2 Max and 1 "regular". The regular river 2 is unreliable with its USBC power output, one of the Maxs works perfectly, and the other one will stop charging via solar randomly and won't work again unless unplugged and plugged back in.
Firmware up to date on all of them.

Make sure you test and use your devices while in the return window.
I am very pleased with the 1 that hasn't had any issues

I'm getting an add that says $10 off if bought in app. Maybe that's the difference?

same, this deal seems mislabeled as the coupon code mentioned will only ever take it to $189

This is still decent bang for the buck, but the River 2 Pro refurbs have gone on sale for $229 a couple times earlier this year was slicker. That's +50% capacity, +60% X-boost power output for only a 20% price increase.
I guess it comes down to if you need this now, or if you think we won't see those $229 Pro refurb deals again.

I almost bought this when I saw it a little higher price a week or two ago but then I ended up going with a new "Southwire Elite 500 Series Portable Power Station" for $150 from Camping World. No issues with shipping, arrived a few days later, but I've heard they can be tricky to return. Just another option I stumbled upon.

Same. Mine will randomly stop charging from solar until I disconnect/reconnect the cable.
I even tried purchasing the OEM Ecoflow solar cable and aftermarket ones. Same thing.

DC 12v outlet also doesn't work on mine. Firmware is up to date.

I'm getting a $10 coupon if I use Klarma which brings it down to $179. I wonder if that's what the OP originally saw.

I bought this station 2 years ago. i like it very much. however, after about at most 300 days of use, it is starting to lose its juice ability. A tad.
in other words i think this will come quicker but not because of 3000 cycles: "it is rated for 3000 cycles to 80%+ capacity"

I would buy it again. But new. Refurbished for $179? Have to be about a lot less.

It's a pretty good deal. I built my own system with a 50 amp hour battery and I ended up spending more than this cost.

Perhaps a silly question but can you use this as an inverter to route power from a generator to your sensitive appliances? I understand that this unit uses pure sinewave inverter for its output, but is it capable of charging safely via a generator power?

Just got this. I'm looking to double the Wh with a DIY battery expansion. But, after totalling the cost of a 12v 50Ah battery, charger, and connectors, I'm looking at almost the same cost of this River 2 Max. Might as well buy a second unit right?

A normal non-inverter generator oscillates the charge amount - it will max out then dip, then max, ad infinitum - it will charge though without any damage, eventually. I had to do it during a power outage once with the EF pro models. With the inverter generators charge is stable. I have solar panels in my yard now so a mix of all three is best during along power outage - quiet at night and quick and noisy in an emergency.
It would give you clean power for laptops and tv/hifi etc.
