Generator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Generac Power Systems iQ3800 Duel Fuel Portable generator is very durable. Has a quite noise level. The push button on/ off doesn’t work. It may be the battery, but pull start works great. Easy to put oil in and maintenance is very easy to do.

Quiet

I have owned a Generac pressure washer for more than 20 years, and previously owned a whole house generator, I have/had great service from both. Decided to purchase a small stand by generator - GP3300i. I have ran for a few hours and very happy. Quieter than I expected and does what I need.

Excellent product. Better than Honda. More features.

The Generac IQ2000 generator out performs the Honda generator. I love everything about it. After looking on YouTube and the internet I decided to go with the Generac. Price is just right. I am a retired Firefighter and First Responder after 39 years. Used all types of generators in the fire service. Thank you again Generac for a great product. Will use the generator for my personal use during storms, etc.

More quiet than i imagined

Nice size, unbelievably quiet. I have a Genrac Home Standby generator and have had great luck with it so hoping for the same with the portable. I wish 'RV Ready' meant it had a 30A RV plug instead of 30LR5 Twistlock or at least make it an option to eliminate the need for an adapter. Wish there was a wheel kit, cover, & other accessories available for this unit.

BROKEN AGAIN

I just got a replacement and it wont work properly. The first one lasted 29 days so I was able to get it replaced through Amazon. The second one well it lasted a week before problems arise. We changed oil as it requires synthetic to run more smoothly. We put in proper gas as it requires. We replaced the spark plug. We are at a lose of what else to do. I really love the noise level when it runs its not to heavy, even with oil and gas full. I really wish I knew what else to do.

Does not provide output power matching specs

This generator is supposed to deliver 2200w running power but we have found it automatically shuts down when we connect a load of 1700w. It does run well with a load of 1300w. The size and weight of the generator is great and it doesn't make too much noise. The run time is rather short due to its small size so limited capacity gas tank.

Great Product!

Have this on our bowfishing boat pulling 12 100 watt leds. It's super quiet and very reliable. Only flaw I have found is the pull cord has a deep fray in it after one night. Will be going through warranty to get it replaced. Great product and easy maintenance!

An almost perfect generator

I bought 2 of the Generac GP3000i generators. Both are very, very quiet and easy to use. I can run our RV air, refrigerator and charge a golf cart at the same time on a single unit, but I like the parallel kit when I need a little more. I wish there was a way to do an extended run fuel system to get longer run time between gas refills. I think at this price point it should also have a built in hour meter. The little door at the top to access the spark plug flies off of both of them when it is in the bed of my truck and should really be better designed. One of the generators has less capability than the other and goes into fault mode randomly. We will see what customer service is like to correct that issue. I would buy another one if I needed it.

Quiet, Feature Loaded, Efficient Portable Generator

The Generac Portable 2200i is the quietest running and feature packed portable generator I have ever used. The sturdy built framework with a built-in handle makes portability a task easily accomplished. Whether your need is for home backup or for on-the-road convenience, the Generac 2200i fulfills the requirements. The unit is beautifully colored in orange and black and compels one's pride to surface when showing it to friends or family. As well as doing the normal things a generator does this baby also comes with a 12v DC battery charger to make sure you aren't left stranded because of a dead vehicle battery. This can be real handy camping in the boon-docks. An included feature is a USB charging port for all your small electronic devices, ensuring your wireless communication even where there is no electrical power source available. Never miss a call, text, or email. Even go shopping from a remote area with a fresh charge to your phone, laptop, or ipad. Do all this in the Economy Mode and use less fuel and greater noise reduction. The Generator Status Lights let you know at a glance that power is active, low-oil warning ( and shut down), and overload alerts if you're attempting too much for the unit. In case you need more available watts (power) the Parallel Ready ports connect two inverters together for twice the power. All this is possible by just turning the simple to use Start Dial and cranking up the generator. Sit back and enjoy the evening while the OHV Engine does the rest, while assuring long life of the generator. With a two year Limited Warranty what more could a person want for a price that can't be beat? A very helpful Owner's Manual and Tool Kit is included with each Generac 2200i Portable Generator, making maintaining the generator a task easily accomplished. I highly recommend this excellent generator for your consideration of purchase. It is a winner all the way around!
