Easy to operate.

I bought my portable Generator just before Hurricane Helene hit. We were without power for one week. Our Generac worked perfectly well. We had water for daily shower’s and were able to flush our toilets, and cook.

Very easy to pull start

I am 5'1 in height &100 pounds in weight female. The 6500 pull start was very easy to start. The very first time I fired it up the generator kicked over with ease. It was easy to set the throttle and the machine ran smoothly for hours.

Great generator for the money.

I purchased this generator as a backup to keep the heat on, well pump running, and refrigerator running. It was easy to assemble, and runs fairly quietly. I recommend it.

Great Generator

I love this generator run the whole house no problem with just a little common sense just remember you can’t have a central air, take a shower with a well pump and electric hot water heater and cook at the same time.

First time user

We bought this product because of a power outage that last about 3 days. The product was easy to use and set up. The quick start guide was really handy. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Trouble out of the box. No support

Unit surged badly right out of the box. Would not provide reliable power when it was need desperately needed. Could t get support when it happened and now faced with decision on what to do with a useless heap of metal.

Better than the rest

This genny is does everything I need when the power goes out or when I'm working on project away from electrical service. One nice addition would be a keyed starter switch.

This generator works get. It has good features that are very easy to see and handle. No problems so far.

This generator was very easy to set up and get started. All you have to do is follow the instructions in the manual. I was set up and running within a half a hour after reading the manual.
