This is the third Generac I have owned and it is the very best. The electric start is wonderful and all the features can't be beat.Glad to see solid tires no more flat tires. Very reliable and the heavy duty chord that comes with it it is very handy.

Easy to install wheels, tow arm. Easy to move around. Started immediately. Did not seem significantly louder than any other generator. After showing my wife how to use it, she said "that's easy". Electrician had no issues hooking up my Generac manual transfer switch. Now I hope to never use this generator, but I'm ready.

I have been waiting for someone to come out with a generator large enough to have “whole house” capabilities in a portable configuration. I am a self-employed semi-retired electrician and have installed a number of generators, but this one is by far the biggest and best. I bought this one for my own house, replacing a 12,500/9,500 generator that was not quite big enough to run my entire house, especially in the summer with AC. This generator, with 26,500 starting watts and 17,500 continuous duty watts, will run most any normal size house. The only drawback with this is the physical size and weight. It really is too heavy for even 2 people to lift. The saving grace is it’s perfectly weight centered lift ring. I picked it up with a tractor and put it in the back of my truck just to fill the very large gas tank the first time. This really is a 5 star product from a well known and quality manufacturer of generators.

After the several months of Severe Mid -West weather and constant power outages! We up graded our generator to the GP6500. It was very easy to set up as well as to use! The features that is nice to have on this unit were the large 7 1/2 gal gas tank, easy to pull start and power to supply my entire house!! This unit is not only great for home back up power but we also took it on our hunting trip and made the trip just a little more like home!

Bought this generator to replace the under powered, old and pretty beat one Iv'e been limping along for years. I live in the rural part of NY and depend on electricity for almost everything from water to heat. The crazy weather lately has taken out the power several times already this year. The 7500 will power everything with ease. With the electric start feature, I'm now spoiled. Great machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This comes packaged nicely. All the parts for the handle and wheels comes packaged in a separate box inside the larger box, it even comes with a bottle of oil and funnel. The instructions are easy to understand and follow. It took about 45 minutes to attach the wheels and handle and fill with oil and gas. It wheels in and out of the garage so easily and the handle folds down to save space while in the garage. It has a pull start and it started on the first pull. While it is running it is just as loud as lawn mower, so it's not overly loud. We hooked it up to a 6 circuit transfer panel. This particular generator is enough for our oil furnace, refrigerator, and a couple lights to run all at the same time. It has an hour meter so you can easily keep track of the hours of use for maintenance purposes. So far, it does what it is suppose to do and I am happy with it.

I bought my Generac RS8000E because a friend of mine said if you want a quality lasting Generator. Then Generac is the one you want. He said the quality goes in before the name goes on. I liked that, & I like the electric starter, large fuel capacity & long run time. At 8,000 watts It has more than enough wattage to run our home. It's easy to move around and it's nice to know it's there when I need it. Our power went off for 4 days this Aug 11th, 2020 from the big storm that went threw the Midwest. That's not going to happen to my family again. Thanks Roger

Generator was delivered on time and I was able to assemble it by myself in spite of it's 400lbs with little trouble. Generator started right up and ran very smoothly. My only complaint was that the bracket that holds the 50 amp cable in does not fit the Generac cable. Without holding the cable in, it will vibrate out. I removed the bracket and was able to secure the plug with cable ties. An easy fix but one that shouldn't have to be done considering how well the rest of the machine is constructed.

We was dealing with a major power outage, after looking at several other brands, I went with this brand and size, because everything I have heard, I trusted it. This unit was perfect, it provided power for my side by side fridge, and two upright freezers with plenty to spare. While others were sitting in the dark, we was sitting in a well lit living room eating supper. Love my new Generac generator.

Like so many others, going 7 1/2 days without power during the freak October Nor'easter SUCKED! I bought the GP7500E for back up power. Great unit! Easy assemble out of the box....was up and running in 15-20 minutes. We will never be without power. What a relief knowing we won't have to go throught that again! I recently had a friend who's an electrican install a 10 circuit transfer switch. This unit has plenty of juice to power everything we hooked up and then some. Hopefully we won't have to use it too often but, if it goes dark again.....we're ready! Thanks Generac
