[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually use my inverter at home as backup in case the power goes out and the battery backup fails for my sump pump. This portable power station is my new go to in case of emergency. It's able to be used for so many different scenarios too. Camping, tailgating, parties in a park. I am amazed at what an awesome generator this is. It's light, less than 30lbs, and has a cool storage compartment to keep all my cords neatly organized. The display is user friendly and easy to read. I can charge it to 80% in a little over two hours. It's amazing and I highly recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Generac portable power station is a great portable option for powering anything on the go. The unit itself weighs about 35 lbs and gets a full charge within 2 hours. When charging it makes a humming sound. Not too bothersome but worth noting. There is a wireless charging pad on top of the unit with is great for charging your phone. It comes with the ability to purchase solar panels separate and recharge with solar. It has ports for usb c and usb a, AC receptacles, and a 12V car port. It has a nice display. Overall a really nice, compact unit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GB1000 Power Station has been great so far. I haven't used it a lot but for what I have used it, it has been very successful and handy. The power station offers several options for types of electrical devices. Able to power certain tools on job sites. It was been very versatile. The power station is very sleek. Highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the GB1000 Generac power station In the mail a couple weeks ago. It's something I've been wanting to get for a long time. It's simply amazing! It has a AC charging port, DC charging port, NEMA 1-15R AC Receptacles, AC output circuit breaker, DC output on/off button, 12V Car port, USB A & C output receptacles, wireless charging pad on top, display screen, Diffused LED light, Parallel ports, and it also has a cord storage pocket on the back to keep everything together. It's such an amazing product to have in your home. I'm so happy with this brand! It's about 27 lbs. You can also purchase separately some solar panels to charge it as well which is amazing! I highly recommend checking this product out, it's always great to have!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This power station came at 25% charged and took about 2 hours to fully charge. It includes a variety of different options for input/output including 3 120V outlets (your typical American plug), 2 USB-A ports, 2 USB-C ports, a 12V car outlet, and a wireless charging pad on top. My phone was at 30% and it took about 1 hour to get it to 100% which is pretty quick. It also has a light on the front that can be used in case you don't have a flashlight or other kind of light that can be pugged in. It has 2 different brightness options which I find useful to bring camping. When using either the AC or DC output, you will need to press either the AC or DC buttons on the left and right. If you do not press one of these buttons, the receptacles will not work, as I found out since I wondered why it wasn't charging, even though the unit itself was on. When the station is powered on and you're using it to charge anything (a phone or laptop or anything larger), you can hear the fan going on in the background pretty loudly. It kind of reminds me of when my PC is overheating and the fans are going loudly. You can use 1 or all 3 of the AC receptacles as long as you do not exceed 1600 of continuous watts. You can also see the output of watts on the LCD display that shows the estimated amount of watts currently being used. At the moment, I am using it to charge my laptop and it shows that it uses around 77 watts. This leaves me plenty of extra wattage to use any of the other outlets or ports for other uses. Pass-through charging is supported, where you can both charge the station as well as use power from it at the same time. I personally would not do this often, as I read that it can reduce battery life, but it's good to have just in case and good to know. There is also a parallel connection so that you can connect 2 Generac power stations together to get increased run time. Overall, this is a fantastic power station that provides a lot of different options depending on your needs and circumstances that you'll be using it for. One of the things that I'm looking forward to is getting the solar panel (not included) to use with the solar connecting cord that came with this unit. I can't speak to how that works as of right now, since I do not have the panel, however, it's awesome that it came with it as an option.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This portable power station is amazing! It took about an hour to an hour and a half to fully charge, but once it was done it worked great! There are 4 outlets on the front to plug in any device plus USB ports. I cannot wait to go camping g next year to use this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a great backup power generator! Not only is it sturdy and built to last, but it is incredibly functional. With multiple inputs and outputs, you're sure to always be able to have emergency power at your fingertips.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really looking forward to using this in an emergency. I love how it comes with so many features. It will charge your phone if you lay it on top. Besides charging by normal plug in, it also can charge by usb port. It comes with a convenient handle and a light on the front.

As a Generac employee, I was invited to test the product in exchange for my honest feedback. I have used the gb1000 on two occasions. Took it for Deer gun season as a backup in case of generator issues. Thie second for ice fishing trip where we powered our fish finder and underwater camera. Came in handy as well for charging our cell phones. So much nicer than listening to a generator.

As a Generac employee, I was invited to test the product in exchange for my honest feedback. I took it up to northern Wisconsin this winter with some friends to stay at a cabin without electricity. The GB1000 worked like a charm! We even used it to keep a phone charged so we could watch the world cup. It delivered constant power to all small electronics we plugged into it and by the end of the weekend it was still at 98% battery capacity. Charging was incredibly easy with its ability to charge via AC plug power, car charger power, and solar power. The only negative things I have to say about it was that it would occasionally emit a little noise from its fan while charging or in use, and it was a little heavy.
