[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't be happier with my Generac Power Systems GP5500 generator! Received just days before Nor'easter hit area and community power outage hit. This unit offers incredible value for its price, combining outstanding quality craftsmanship with durable materials that inspire confidence. Set-up was a breeze, and the ease of use is unbeatable! What really impresses me is how easily movable it is. The sturdy wheels make maneuvering it feel like pushing a wheelbarrow, which is a game-changer during power outages or when I need to relocate it for outdoor events. As a petite woman I am able to use and maneuver this unit like a pro, which is crucial in an emergency situation. It works perfectly, delivering reliable power whenever I need it. In short, the GP5500 is a fantastic generator that combines performance, portability, and impressive quality. Highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a dependable generator! Must have for any home owner!

Originally purchased unit from a general distributor. The product did not work as it should. Spent months trying to get that resolved. The process was gruesome and useless. Finally after months & hours of my time a resolution was determined to replace the unit with a new one. This unit appears to perform as advertised and expected. So long story short, replacement made but after months of aggravation. Not what I ever bargained for.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Generac 5500 generator was very simple and easy to put together. Adding oil and fuel easy as well. Start-up with manual startup was fairly easy. This unit also comes with a battery for an electric start which is pretty cool. The load can handle several small appliances such as a refrigerator, freezer and a TV or you can use it to run a single 220 volt HVAC system by itself. Moving the unit is a breeze as it comes with a handy handle that folds up and down for easy storage. Overall I highly recommend this unit and Generac is well known for their reliability and quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being in Florida, you never know when a hurricane is going to come to having a generator is a luxury. This takes both gasoline and propane, which is nice if you can't find one or the other can be wheeled around and not too big to store.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator works great! Has a long battery life too which is incredible. Easy to use and start thankfully. It has a lot of power to it. Also has wheels to move around which is great because it's heavy otherwise.

after purchasing a different brand and having problems right out of the box with both products I bought this generac portable generator with a generic transfer switch and having it installed by a licensed electrician and approved by my local county all systems are go fortunately have not needed to use it this winter yet but I've had a generac in the past that served me very well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Down here in southeast Louisiana, you learn real quick that having a generator isn't a luxury — it's a necessity. I picked up the Generac GP5500E mainly for hurricane season, and let me tell you, it has already earned its keep. The electric start is a lifesaver when the power's out and it's hot, humid, and you're trying to get things running fast. It fired right up with no fuss. It's got plenty of power for what we need: fridge, freezer, a few fans, lights, Wi-Fi, and even the window A/C. During an outage, we barely noticed any strain on it. It's not whisper-quiet, but honestly it's about what you'd expect from a generator this size — steady and reliable. Fuel efficiency is solid too. I ran it overnight during a storm-related outage, and it sipped gas slower than I thought it would. Maintenance is also pretty simple, and the wheel kit makes it a whole lot easier to move around the yard. If you live anywhere that the weather can flip your power off anytime, the GP5500E is a great peace-of-mind purchase. Dependable, strong, and easy to use — exactly what you want when the lights go out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got this Generac Power Systems GP5500 Single Fuel 50 ST generator and am very pleased with it so far. It is very easy to operate, especially with turning it on. It provides very reliable power throughout the time that I had it on. It also is easy to store as it's not too big.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are absolutely in love with this generator. Be warned, that it does weigh 120 pounds, so you'll need to be able to grab it inside and have to move it around to attach the wheels and handle. This is unique because it allows for two different power sources - gasoline or propane. Once the wheels and handle are attached, is is very easy to move around. Fairly compact for the amount it can power our house, so that is a huge perk! Only suggestion, would be to add a clip for the hose. Again, small suggestion. Great brand and great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took our new generator to deer camp this weekend and wow what an incredible generator. It is the perfect size for what we needed. Easy to move around and transport, not overly heavy. Is a dependable unit and had no issues at all. Easy to install parts for wheels, handle and legs. My 10yr old put it all together and filled it with the supplied oil. I highly recommend a generac system for all your needs. Generac even makes whole home systems for if you loose power. We will be looking into purchasing one of those for our home.
