To All Owners of Coleman Powermate Brand Generators:

A national class action lawsuit against Powermate Corporation is pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. In Coy v. Powermate Corporation, 07 C 6029 (N.D. Ill.), the plaintiff has alleged that Powermate Corporation has and continues to misrepresent the power output of its Coleman Powermate brand electric generators.

The proposed class includes all people who bought a Coleman Powermate brand electric generator after September 2003.

The complaint alleges that Powermate breached its warranty with its customers and violated the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act by misrepresenting the power output of its generators and by refusing to repair or replace the allegedly defective generators. The complaint also alleges that Powermate misrepresented the power output of its generators to gain an unfair competitive advantage.
