We lost power due to severe storms that roared through our area. The sump pump was flooding out into the basement and we had just filled our freezer so we needed electricity. Because of the widespread damage from the storms it was evident we were not getting our power on anytime soon. Purchased a Generac 8000 watt unit and we were able to get through the blackout! The generator supplied more than enough power and ran several hours on a tank of gas - very pleased with our purchase!

I bought this during the power outage of August. Setup was easy, the generator worked flawlessly. It powered half of my house with extension cords. 2 refrigerators, a chest freezer, sump pump, ceiling fans and lights. Had my cable modem and wifi running as well as 2 8,000 BTU air conditioners. The only issue I ran into was that the cushions for the handlebars were missing. All it took was a few emails and Generac took care of that for me.

I bought the 8063 tri fuel generator at a local hardware store, I local electrician installed a transfer switch. Approximately a week later we had a power outage. The generator worked as expected it did seem to be a little hard to start i was using propane, but that may be normal I don't have experience with using propane for fuel.

I purchased this prior to hurricane season. Of course I hope I dont have to use it, but if we lose power this should do the trick. Plenty of power to run my entire house. (without being stupid) It runs great so far. No problems.

We lost power for 13 days due to storm on August 11-26 in NW Indiana, it was great to power up the freezer in garage, and refrigerator in house along with lights!! Next going to have it hooked up so we just plug in generator to entire house

We bought our GP8000E on August 12th after the devastating August 11th storm that hit Northwestern Indiana. It save all the food in both of our refrigerators, and also ran our TV and Internet.

We had an extended power outage. This was my first portable generator. It assembled easily and worked well supplying power to my home. It was the only unit available due to the area wide power outage. My only complaint is the noise level while running.

I'm 70 years old and live alone. When I purchased this product generators were in very high demand due to frequent power outages and severe storms. It was the only one I could find. There's no doubt that it's a wonderful product, but it's too heavy for me, and I don't have the upper body strength to start it with the pull cord. I need to find a neighbor to help, usually during driving rain and terrible weather conditions-not ideal times to ask for help when neighbors were experiencing similar struggles.

Once I got a working generator (had to return 2 of them til I got one that worked) it has been workable for me. I am getting a whole house generator so I don't have to mess with it.

I bought it a month ago right out of box t air filter cover has scratches on it and also the grab handle i is all scraped up, will never be a customer again,you product is unacceptable
