I bought the GP8000E about 6 months ago for my house, I liked Generac so much that I just bought a GP2200i 9/12/2018 and received it today 9/15/2018. I just put oil in it, and going to get some gasoline. This one is for my tools (drills, circular saws etc.) I like Generac products. Thanks, Frank The GP8000E is Excellent The GP2200i I haven't tried yet.

Excellent product. If you want a portable generator that can take just about any kind of load you can throw at it, this is it. It took the load of an electric dryer, a roast in the oven, a load of cloths in the washing machine with lights on in several rooms at the same time. I checked the voltage and frequency under this load with my meter. It was dead on 60 HZ at 242 volts. It didn’t even seem to be working that hard.

I have supplied the house through 3 power actual outages since 2013 Dec for short duration's under 12-hours. Run the GP1750E every couple months to make sure it works when needed. Starts up on no more than 2=pulls / and right away when using the electric start. Load Test Run with 3-HP LPAC [Low Pressure Air Compressor 150 psig] for the sand blaster and other lights and equipment in pole barn. Also run Simulated Power Outage Load Test to supply the house VITAL LOADS connected to our 100 Amp Sub-Panel Load Center about 4 times a year. [[Main Breaker Panel is 200 Amp --- Sub Panel is 100 Amp for fuel-oil heat, well water, sump pump, electric water heater, freezers/refrigerators, appliances in kitchen, various lighting circuits.]] Have TV, Computers, MODEM-Router, Printers on their own UPS [Uninterrupted Power Supply] to give me time to setup generator to supply electric to house. Can set-up and power house in about 5-10 minutes. Great Generator for the $$$ --- only regret was I didn't get a 15-KW Generac automatic Stand-By unit --- but I live in the rural area without natural gas and didn't want to invest in propane just for a generator.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is absolutely amazing! The quality is awsome and holds up great. The best thing I love about this generator is that it automatically monitors the co levels and shuts it down if it's too high. I have small children so this makes me feel so much better knowing that it's safe. Another thing that's great is it comes with the cord that you need for it. A lot of generators you have to buy that separate. Overall this is a really good generator to have. I recieved this as a sample and this is 100% my own opinion!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really happy to finally have a generator. This takes a little worry away knowing we are protected if an emergency arises and we find ourselves without power. I have several friends and family members who have generac generators so I knew this would be a reliable, quality product. The unit is pretty much ready to go out of the box. Easily assembly and you're up and running. It is a nice size compact unit and fairly lightweight. It has a handle for easy maneuvering. It's pretty straightforward and easy to get started. Theres also a picture chart on the unit itself listing the steps to start the unit. I was impressed with how quiet the unit actually is. I thought it was going to be this loud hunk of machine and its totally not. This generator will be great as a backup if the power ever goes out. I'm always worried about losing all our food in the fridge and deep freezer. I am impressed with the look of this generator also. Everything is labeled clearly and easy to understand. Highly recommend this product to anyone who may find themselves without power. It's always good to have on hand because you never know when something might happen.

I highly recommend this generator to everyone. My GP7500E was easy to set up and get started right away. It will be nice when the power goes out here in south Arkansas again and I can just start up my generator and not miss a beat. This generator will do all we need to do. Thanks Generac.

We frequently are affected by power outages so an emergency power source is a necessity. We chose the 7500E because of the electric start and the 7500 watts ,in less than 5 minites we are powered up and comfortable. I highly recommend a transfer switch,it makes the transition to standby power effortless. The 7500E provides more than enough power for our home.

I just purchased this generator and it was very easy to put together right out of the box. I followed the instructions in the book and added the oil and then gas. I turned the choke on and then hit the start button. The generator started right up. My friend who was helping me thought it was going to be louder than what it was. I too was surprised at how little noise it made. I then tested the voltage in all of the plugs. Everything was right where it should be. I hope I do not have to use it as a backup, but if I do I'm sure it will do the job with no problems. I bought this for our house for when our power goes out, which happens quite often. I also bought it with the intention of using it when we build our log home. I know it will be able to power all of the equipment while we work.

I purchased this generator as a back up for my home, and used it only 5 hrs and I haven't found it to be any better or worse to setup or features it offers. It is not as quiet as I had hoped. I have owned or own 6 generators. Size of those units have ranged from 2000w-15,000watts. The gas cap was very difficult to remove to fill with gas. Attaching the battery cables was not easy at all and I have some mechanical ability. Battery location could be better. Oil that comes with the unit does not give a 30W, 10W-30 label and does not indicate the size of the container, 32oz, 24oz, 42oz.. I did enjoy the ease of transporting it from the house where I assembled it to the shed in several inches of snow, where it is stored. That distance is 125 ft. The Generac brand has been around for years so I hope to get 1000 hrs + of use with no mechanical service issues.

I purchased this model for my , home back power supply. It can handle all my needs such as power all my outlets , well pump , T.V. & Satellite . I been with out a gen before for over a week . You should speak to your local electrician about what you plan on powering . I can Run my electric hot water heater , but have to turn other things off if I need to make some hot water. we didn't feel it was necessary go larger , just to make hot water once a day .I highly recommend speaking to electrician before any purchase for all your needs electrical needs if you want a home back generator .
