Great home/business generator

We use our generator for special events and for backup purposes, not very noisy for its size/power, fuel efficient and very reliable, I would highly recommend the GP17500E!

This product is great and the features are wonderful.

Purchased thisd product last year in August 2020. and it has worked great for me and my family. If I need another unit I will think of a 13000 unit propane gas unit with auto start and testing.

This product was not needed

Recently purchased to use for the anticipated ice storm that did not come. Overall seems to be of great quality and very user friendly. Will update review after using.

Great for the buck.

Purchased unit for service truck. Strong quality construction. Truly like the fact that Generac rates there units for continuous running watts, not just peak as others do. Great purchase price and ease of assembly.

Super Power!

Generator arrived quickly and needed basic assembly. I went from box to running generator in less than a half hour. All components are solidly overbuilt and well laid out. Am impressed with the quality and highly recommend the 6500E

Powerful home use

I purchased this generac for portable home use. We lose power frequently and having an option to use almost everything in conjunction with an interlocking kit comes in handy.

Not properly rated

Viewing the schematic, all power, both 240v and 120v goes through one 30 amp breaker. 30 amps time 240 volts is 7200 watts with no more capacity for the 120v outlets. How can you rate this generator at 9200 watts when you can only use 7200 watts?

Major Problem

I live in hurricane country. That means rain. This thing cannot be operated in rain, so it does me no good. I will have to get a machine that works in bad weather.

A great product for a great price.

We had a power outage so I went to meanards and bought one. Brought it home put it together which was easy, added the oil and gas and it fired right up. Had everything I wanted up and running in no time. Love it!
