Run Ac ok, but the micro wave was also turn on at the same time overload. Overload led came on and voltage drop out which is to be expected. Went to shut it off and restart to reset to recover, it would not shut off. Had to unplugged the spark plug to shut it off? Started again voltage was correct ran AC fine, but could not shut it off. Looks like the Ignition module went bad? Called one of the company that was recommended for warranty they would not do genrac warranty repairs? Took it to another repair out fix to get it repaired they copy my 3yr extended warranty information which I had purchased as well. Not a good feeling about the warranty issue. Product may have issue with the ignition / control module? Will find out. Other than not being able to reset the unit after overload, whether automatic recovering or restarting unit, it still work fine. They need to look at redesigning the ignition/control module to be more robust. Waiting see see what the results will be? It’s a good product if they fix this issue.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My power goes out way too often due to trees breaking during storms. I have lost so much food as a result, so this generator will be a game changer. At over 115 pounds, it is heavy, but the compact size and wheels make transport easier. With four different power outlets, it means I can plug in appliances, cell phones and lights during an outage. Running on two types of fuel (gas and propane) gives me flexibility for usage. I like the LED display to see the output and gas consumption. Generac is a brand I can trust because they have a great reputation.

I got the generator (Craftsmen 3000i) last spring and used it on two camping trips. It worked flawlessly. However, the last two times I have tried to run the unit it has been very difficult to start. I had to remove the plug and use starter fluid. Yesterday I removed the spark arrestor and discovered it to be quit dirty. I cleaned the spark arrestor and also checked the plug. I installed a hour meter as soon as I got the machine and as of today there are only 38 hours of run time. Even after performing this early maintenance the unit was still hard to start. I really like the weight to power ratio, but am concerned on the starting difficulty.

This is perfect for our requirements, here at home to keep the portable AC going IF NECESSARY, fridge/freezers. But great at the farm to run power tools and have available at the 'bug out' shelter/cabin. Easy to start, quiet, and versatile to move around. Recommend using non-ethanol gas exclusively,

I bought this generator, as a back up for our travel trailer, for times when power wasn't available. Recent trip to the Keys in FL required 2 nights on generator, ran the entire trailer flawlessly, left it locked down in the back of my pick-up, while connected to the trailer, so quit, and ran all night on a tank, powered the refrigerator, heat lights TV ran the slide out, without issue. Easy to start, easy to operate, 1 adapter to the trailer 30Amp, and all was good.

Well designed engine and load monitoring system. Nice compact package with minimum weight (a very important feature for RV'ers). A paralleling kit and RV plug would certainly add to its desirability. Am interested in following the development of the IQ 2000 .

I bought this generator to run my Ice House/Camper. All of the 2000 units were not powerful enough to run my AC Unit. This unit has been great, I was able to run the AC, Refrigerator, TV, DVD, Lights, and Coffee maker all at the same time. The IQ3500 is also the quietest unit I have seen, it is as quiet as the 2000 watt units. Only thing I would like to see improved is the LCD display, on bright days it is a little hard to read and I would like it to stay on hours remaining. You have to scroll though all options each time. Either way not a big deal. Over all a great unit and I would highly recommend it.

I bought this generator because I needed something lighter and easier to handle. Have no problems whatsoever with my generator. The only issue I have is I would love to have a wheel kit for my GP3300i, when I go online the only kit they show on all sites is for the 3500 model.

I bought this to use with our 26 ft. camper. Sites with hook-ups are becoming more difficult to get with the increase in post-pandemic campers. I wanted to have full use of my camper but didn't want to listen to (or have my neighbors listen to) a loud, open-frame generator. This generator is SO quiet. It is barely louder than ambient noise at the campground when sitting in our site, and is virtually in-audible by the time you are 50 ft away. Set up was super easy. Connect battery cables. Add oil and good gas (91 octane with zero ethanol is BEST.). Turn on and push start... It is very well built. None of the problems noted in other reviews. My only 'complaints' is the weight and the oil drain design. 100+ pounds seems heavy for a unit this size. But I knew the weight prior to buying it. The oil drain design could use some work. A 4" hose that would slip out through the bottom oil drain port would be a HUGE improvement.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We originally didn't plan on opening up this generator until our Memorial Day camping trip next weekend but a downed tree on our power lines at home this passed week changed that plan! We were without power for just one day but with the help of our flashlights on our phones, my husband and I were able to put it together. The Generac iq3800 Dual Fuel portable generator comes fully assembled but we had to make sure the battery was connected, add oil, and then add gasoline. We didn't have a propane tank which can also be used. It was surprisingly easy to assemble since this is our first generator we owned, we assumed it may be more difficult. On the contrary, it took us about 20 minutes to get it ready to go. It weighs a little over 100 lbs but the wheels and handle make it very easy to move around. The digital display makes it easy to see how much fuel we had in there and all the controls are very easy to read and use. Start up is very simple my husband was able to do so on his first try. I like that there is a carbon monoxide detector along with auto shut off if the levels reach danger. That makes it very comforting when using a generator. We used high quality extension cords to thread thru the house and plugged in the fridge, two lamps, one TV, and charger for our phones for the night. Our local electric company had the power back on in about 8 hours and it lasted the whole time. I am very impressed! Especially since the noise level is fairly quiet and we had it on overnight (didn't disturb our sleep or neighbors at all!). Definitely a lifesaver in this instance and we can both highly recommend this generator!
