My current generac xp8000e is 12 years old - and has gotten me through many outages. I am retiring it to backup and replacing with the new model. Strange as it seems the $$ is about the same WOOT!! This model is much quieter than my old one :-)

While this generator is exceptionally powerful and reliable it is dangerous to use as it is too heavy to move. Moving it just once about destroyed my spine. IT NEEDS WHEELS AND YOU CAN'T GET THEM!!!

I now have 2 of the 6500 series.one I use for contractors on job sites, the other is for my personal emergency backup power. dependability when I need it most!

Easy to assemble. Started up in seconds the first time with a simple push of the start button. Started on the first pull with cord also. Slightly noisy.

Bought it for power outages and works great. Just ran it 24 hours continuously with no issues. Easy on gas at low to medium loads. Haven't run it long for big loads.

This 17500 generac generator is ideal for our needs it has all the features I was looking for. And the price was within our budget. If you are looking for a powerful and economic generator this is the one to get

Really like the push button start. Took it out of the box, put oil and gas in it and it started with first touch of the button. Comes with a charger for the battery needed for push button start.

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.

Will run all essential home electrical during power outages. The 7500E has enough power to run our furnace, refrigerator, lights and tv. would not be without it after last years one week power outage after ice storm.

It is well built easy to assemble I had a electrician install manual switch gear The only issue I have is with the cold weather I haven’t been able to start it Not sure what to due?
