Easy to assemble well explained instructions. You can see and feel you have a solid well built piece of equipment. Started without issue however was louder than anticipated or had hoped for. Peace of mind knowing that my family will be comfortable through power outages thanks to Generac

It is a little noisier than expected. But for 7500 watts and the portability, it is no issue at all. I've had other brands of generators in the past, and the quality of Generac has exceeded my expectations. As a homeowner and Master Electrician I give it an A+

I purchased my 1st Generac Portable, a 5 KW, 25 years ago. We lived in a suburb with frequent power outages. Since then we have relocated 4 times and it never failed me. The only problems were it was a "pull start" (I am 75 years old) and my power requirements have increased. I purchased another Generac. I wanted to stay with a winner. The 7500E powers my entire home, (and the air conditioning), and it starts at the flick of a switch. I gave the 5KW to a young fellow, a new home owner recently married. We had a power failure 2 weeks ago. Now instead of one happy Generac owner, there are two.

With all of the weather associated power outages occurring these past years, I decided it was time to purchase a portable generator as a back-up . After looking at what was available, I chose the Generac because of its reputation as a reliable machine and at a price I could afford. Love my purchase and I'm not having any worries about its capabilities and performance. I'm now in ready-mode !! / Bonne achat pour me sécurisé en cas de panne d'électricité !!

I originally purchased the GP5500 unit, but traded it in for this GP7500E. The electric start is prefect. I set up the unit in no time and I had my wife come down to start it for the first time. She simply pushed the start button and it fired up. It actually runs quieter than other generators in the neighborhood. I would derfinitely recommend this unit to anyone, and I have. You can't beat the features for the price.

This is a very good product, easy to put into use, and I can effectively use it to run everything I need in an emergency. starts easy even though it doesn't have an electric starter. I would by it again. We live in an area where storms take out power frequently. The transfer switch was easy to install as well.

The unit was delivered and it took me a few weeks before I set it up. Too bad it doesn't ship with wheel kit already installed, it is a 2 man job for set up. After getting the transfer switch installed, tested the unit on a full load and works great. Easy to crank but had to purchase a charger for the battery after 3 months. It is loud even when placed in idle mode and the metal cover rattles near the muffler. I love it though.

Like others, I do find this generator to be a little on the loud side. I also have an older Generac 4000XL that is nowhere near as loud. With that said, I am very happy with the generator so far. I have run it only about 20 minutes but fully intend to give it a break-in workout this weekend. First impressions are it is substantially more than the 4000XL in ways far beyond just the wattage ratings. I like the electric start, the tank filler screen, the fuel line filter, the metal fuel shutoff valve, and many other details that just make me feel this generator is considerably more solid. I do wish it was a pressurized oil system and filter on the engine, but I could not justify the price increase to get that feature. All in all, I find this generator to be an excellent value. Yes there are trade-offs, but it will serve my home backup purposes well.

We just got our GP6500 put together today, and found the directions for assembly difficult to interpret. There was a card that showed the parts and pictograms of how to assemble, but they were not clear enough. The manual was. It much help either. We managed to figure it out, having put together many other types of products, but I think that it might be a challenge for others. We haven't even used the product yet, as we have not lost power since purchasing, but wanted to tell the company that their assembly instructions were terrible!

I did a lot of research on Generac generators after some co-workers recommended this product. The ease of purchase after finally choosing has been wonderful. I wanted to purchase a Stand-By but found the cost of installation was exorbitant. I chose a portable generator with a Generac Transfer Switch which turns out to be just what I needed. After losing electricity for two months after Hurricane Rita, panic sets in even when the power goes out for a short time. I would advise the purchase of generators during a time when no hurricane is already churning and causing a terrible sense of urgency.
