Veery difficult to review a standby generator because an unexpected power failure is real test. Wee bought our 26KW Generac last year and hasn't seen a power failure yet. In fact, been in this house for last 20 years and lost power twice and not more than 8 hours either time. Generator looks well designed and exercise as programmed. Not very loud and sending notices via text messages via wifi connection is awesome. I hope I never needed to use it but it comforting to know that we have a standby generator just in case we loose power. Specially when my wife's health conditions do not allow to be without power for extended period of time. The mobilink app is good but should not have to a price to edit exercise schedule. I paid but didn't like that option. Overall I am happy so far.

We live in a very wooded suburb of Boston. One might think that living 30 minutes outside of a city isn't the type of place for power issues, but our town is densely wooded with lots of tall mature pines everywhere. Whenever there's any kind of storm, be it a thunderstorm in the summer, a nor'easter or ice storm in the winter, we lose power almost guaranteed. The power company in our area is also extremely slow to restore power. Any outage guarantees at least 12+ hours of downtime, with many outages lasting 2-3 days. We got tired of spoiled food, no heat, and just huge headaches. We got this 18kW Generac 7226 installed by a local dealer last year, and it's already gotten us through two multi-day outages. It's so nice to not worry about our refrigerator and our heat in the wintertime anymore. We're able to continue our daily lives as normal while it just hums away outside powering our house. The automatic transfer switch takes care of switching back to main power after immediately once it's back, even in the middle of the night. If you're on the fence, go for a Generac. You won't be disappointed.

Living in the heartland, "...where the wind comes sweeping down the plain...", and the ever present possibility of bitter cold and ice storms in the winter, the threat of power outages is high. We experience a mean average of 5-7 outages a year. Those outages can last minutes to days, anecdotally, 2-4 hours in my experience. No more portable gensets, no more stored gasoline, no more extension cords and inlet boxes, no more breakers and interlocks. No more fighting the elements to get the power back on. Generac does all that automatically and in about 15-20 seconds. That friends, is peace of mind!

We've just had it for a month and no use has been completed
