JUST RECIEVED MY 17.500 UNIT TOOK ABT 1 HR TO GET READY. I LET IT RUN LOW IDLE TO BREAK IN CHECK OUTPUT. OUTPUT IS AS SHOWN BIG 16 GAL TANK SHOULD RUN ALL NIGHT

Bought this generator after our last hurricane. Works awesome. Can power up the whole house. Uses less gas than my old generator. Easy to start. After buying this, I had 4 relatives get the same exact generator. Highly recommended.

Very easy to set up out of the box, directions were plain and simple. Started right up, easy to transport. This unit supplies all the power needed to run everything we need.

This generator saved us during a recent thunderstorm that turned severe and knocked our power out. We shopped around and saw the awesome price and were a little leary but now we know we made a worthwhile investment. Very Impressed.

Pull starter is very cheaply made(plastic parts!) broke the t handle in only 36hr. of run time and the rest of the recoil broke and now I can not start the generator! also very noisy!

This is a very high quality product--starts and runs great and is a real nice looking unit. The distributor answered all my questions and even provided free delivery.

Bought this for hurricane season. Have read tons of great reviews on it, and will be glad to have it in case of a hurricane or other loss of power event. Can't beat the quality for the price.

I'm really pleased with my Generac 6500e generator. I replaced a 14 year old unit with this one and I feel like I now have a reliable back up when the storms come and the power goes out.

Decided to go with this unit instead if a whole house generator.This unit will supply the power we want plus it's portable. A lot cheaper that installing a whole house generator.

Purchased the generator as a back up during bad weather or general power outages. Very happy with the product, and ease of operation. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting a quality product that will get the job done.
