Great performance

Bought the gp7500e for a home backup. This machine is more than I could have ever asked for. So far, I have found nothing that I could talk bad about. I believe in great value in whatever I purchase, and this machine is just that.. Thanks Generac for a great product..

Very powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thankful for my generator from Generac. Now we will always have lights and other things when power goes out, Which is nice where we live in the country and they do not get our power on quickly. I really like it has a CO detector and will cut itself off if any is detected. Now my food will not ruin if power is off. This has a long run time, large gas tank and very powerful. Was very easy to setup. My husband even uses this on our property to power his tools when needed. This will also be great to have for camping. Many uses and also shows you hours used so you know when to perform routine maintenance. Top of the line generator in our opinion.

Great features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this generator free as a trial product and honestly wasn't expecting much out of it since it was free. I was very wrong! This is by far one of the best generators I've ever used!! The power is beyond belief. It has several plug ins and could potentially power everything I would need in a power outage. I wouldn't hesitate to take it camping, use it in a garage, the possibilities are endless. I cannot say enough good things about it!

The generator performed great during Hurricane Sandy

I purchased this generator after the issues with Hurricane Irene. When this storm hit and we lost power, I simply brought out the generator, hit the switch and forgot about it. It performed great. I ran my boiler, refrigerator and a TV. I have and will continue to highly recommend this product.

Haven't used it yet but looking forward to it

Haven't used it yet but looking forward to it. We live in a hurricane prone area and have dealt with power outages many times over the past 15 years. Most have been for 3 days or more. Although I am not looking forward to the next hurricane, when it does hit I know I will be ready

Best generator I've ever owned!!

Having had 2 other generators over the last 20 years, this one out-performs all the others. It starts so easy, I really do not need the electric start feature. It has plenty of power to operate the house. We seem to have frequent power losses, so having a back-up is a way of life.

Excellent features, great price, easy to use especially for seniorss

Checked previous reviews ALL were favorable. Other competitive products could not MATCH favorable reviews & their ratings. Easy of use, especially with electric start & EVEN battery charger, really sealed the deal! Needed an superior generator with all the power outages now & in the future. Couldn't be without an dependable generator anymore! Recommendations from relatives ALWAYS were GENERAC for dependability and quality!

Like it BUT ...

First unit had air cleaner crushed. Returned for replacement during emergency outage. Mixed fuel stabilizer in fuel each refueling. Present unit ran flawlessly for 30 hours while performing service on the main breaker box. Shut it down & stored for 6 months. Pulled it out to start it & keep it loose; wore myself out pulling that rope! Found the exhaust valve was remaining open. Fixed that and it ran fine. Want to convert it to electric start but Generac doesn't make a kit for it!! Yeah, it voids the warranty but it's already out! Getting too old to be yanking ropes!
