I have used this for power loss during a hurricane, tailgating, and camping. This unit starts every time with little to no effort. It is very quiet and it is strong. During the last hurricane I ran my TV, router, cable box, fans, and lights with this bad boy! I highly recommend it.

Power was out from 8PM on Wednesday to 11:30AM Sunday. This little machine ran flawlessly with nothing more than a couple refuels. Ran my furnace, refrigerator, a couple lights, my TV, and my CPAP machine with barely a hiccup. Ran for over 8 hours if not 10 on a single fuel up. Just need to change the oil and check the spark plug so it's ready for a monthly test and hopefully stays in the garage for a very long time. Good to know it is there when needed. Maybe a camping trip or two this summer!

I just purchased a IQ3500. The unit came with everything needed less the gasoline. I read the manual and filled the unit with the provided oil, added 100% gas and fired it up. It started immediately and ran great. Ultra quite and very smooth. I plugged in some lights for a lite load and ran it for 1.5 hours. I shut it down and checked the oil level. I am very happy with my purchase. This is my second Generac generator that I own. My older one is an 11 year old 7500 watt and still runs like new. Thanks for building reliable products!

I purchased this generator two years ago I have since used twice, draining it regularly as well as running it as needed. 1- I recently tried to start and at first pull the recoil did not work. It took about 30 soft pulls and me walking away for it to retract. 2 - purging, I don’t know if this is normal but it purges when it ran and now it won’t run, cleaned the carb from sitting- even without fuel. And ran for 30 second then have to pull it again 3. Service, I just looked up and the closest service center for Generac is 60 Miles away. What are my options for warranty/repairs? I like this machine for the space saving and power aspect but I am not seeing that maybe I should have went with my gut as far as prior luck with the Red and White brands comparable model. Generac, Please Help!

[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 purchased the gp3000i to use with my rv. It starts and runs the a/c with no issues with the standard battery charger working and the fridge running on electric. It fires right up with gentle pulls and is easy on fuel considering the output. Did I mention that it is quiet, so quiet that at full load you can stand right over it and have a conversation, without yelling. Nice package and light enough to move easily, well done. I'd buy it again, wouldn't hesitate at all.

Purchased this for a boat lift for a 23’ runabout and it works great. Impressed with how quiet it is and how easy it starts. I’ve only used it one boating season but just started today after it sat for almost four months to drain the gas. Took about 5 or 6 pills to get it started but once started worked like a charm. I’d definitely recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The iQ3800DF generator by Generac exceeded my expectations by a mile! Out of the box, it come practically assembled. All you have to do is add the supplied oil and gas and it is ready to start up. The dual functionality of gas and propane is one of many excellent features. It has a pull start as well as an electric push start button thanks to the supplied internal battery. My favorite part of this generator is the low sound levels. I could not believe how quite this unit is! If you activate to "ECO" mode, it lowers sound levels another (in my estimation) another 25-30%. Maintenance seems to be easy! There is an easily accessible oil drain to make oil changes a breeze. Overall, this a fantastic generator and I highly recommend a Generac to anyone looking for a quality portable genrator!

I have a iQ2000 and wanted another Generac with more wattage. Bought this for camping and as a backup to our larger generator. Arrived in perfect condition, started on the second pull (very smooth) and started later with the electric start. Followed all recommended break in procedures and it is very quiet for a generator this size. It's 109 lbs. dry so I built a dolly for maneuverability in my building. Highly recommend the iQ3500!

Machine worked great. Found in our home town Generac dealer/installer(?). Used for 2 full days. Kept our ac on for necessity and saved some food Great investment for home owner. Would highly recommend it for the price and value. Thank you Generac. Appreciate you all Happy Holidays Merry Christmas. Happy new year to us all.
