Love the electric start. DB is a little high. Very mobile.

Can I trade mine generator as down payment. It's new 7500 used only one time

I just survived a devastating tornado in Chattanooga in April 2020. I actually bought this generator in 2013 for emergencies but had not used it much until now. When my areas grid was completely wiped out I rolled out the GP1500 and ran it for over 3 days to keep my house running and food frozen, Many of my neighbors lost all their food and with the Covid crisis going on that is a serious time as we are on lockdown here in Tennessee. The GP1500 powered my house and kept my family safe and fed and warm etc until power was restored. What a great product and it never flinched with the hot water heater, or HVAC etc running. All I had to do was be careful and not try to run everything all at once. Thanks Generac you saved us in 2020.

This is my second Generac generator. The first one that I had lasted over 14 years. I sold it because after we sold our house, the new one we purchased was larger, and the 6500 w we used could not power the entire house. So, I sold it for a good price, because it was a Generac, it has a reputation for quality that lasts. This new generator GP15000E has the power to power the entire house! It is heavy, but because it has a solid cage frame on pneumatic wheels, (located in a balanced location) it is fairly easy to move. All the controls are easy to reach and read, and with the electric start, it is effortless! The only drawback is the noise factor, however, almost all gasoline generators are noisy! If this one lasts like the last one, I will have it for a long, long time!

I purchaed the 7500E about 9 Months ago, overall the Generator has been great and very reliable. I only had two issues, the first issue happened 20 hours after initial startup. When the engine wouldn't start due to a valve problem. (Repaired under warranty). The second problem was a build up of Carbon which prevented the engine from rotating. The second problem occured after 959 hours and was not covered under warranty. It cost be a little over $110.00 to repair. Other then those two issues the Generator has been great.

Great portable unit! I bought it after hurricane Irene to run a Franklin Electric 3 HP well pump. I was without power for 6 days during the freak October snow storm here in the north east. It ran my well, heat (circulated hot water) and two fridges; I was also able to cook and do laundry (not all at once)! Survived the 6 day outage with little worry or pain. My only warning is that this unit is heavy (to be expected) and uses a LOT of gasoline so lots of trips to the gas station. I'm currently looking into a Guardian Series 20KW natural gas model with a permenant hookup. They make a great product!

i have owned this for a few years now. have 93 hrs. on it does a wonderful job when needed. the only thing is the battery for electric start had to replace it (sits more then it runs). when the power goes off nice to have this. we lose power at least once a week ( BAD electric company).BUY Generac if you want to be happy when power goes off!!!!!

pro- whole house for me. 2.5 heat pump and any thing else I need in a power outage. Starts well; comes up to power right away. con- don't like the plug in underneath. My old 15,000 had it right out front. In my area we can expect an outage about every 2 months; sometimes lasting from 2 hrs. to 10 hrs. and even several days. Wouldn't be without my Generac.(P.S. I am a retired electrical employe)

I purchased this unit to replace an older smaller unit. It runs quiet for its size, and the large fuel tank means I don't have to fill up in the middle of the night. It is installed in such a way that I can feed the entire 200AMP Panel, and choose which circuits I want to power. I used it during our last snow storm, and put 14 Hrs on it of continuous use other than to shut down to fill it once. I am able to run my furnace, Well pump, Sewer pump, upright freezer, 20Cu ft refrigerator, 1.5 Cu Ft refrigerator, one light in each of the 3 bedrooms, a light in the living room, and a cable box & flat screen TV, and night lights in the bathrooms. If you have children, you understand the need for the TV and night lights! I usually leave about 10 circuits powered on, and monitor what is used on each circuit. Do you homework, figure out your wattage draw, and you will have no problems. Just be sure to balance your load draw. I chose the Generac because of their products are built well, and have a great track record. Best investment by far to keep a "happy family" when the power goes out.

I purchased this generator after a three day power outage in 2011. It just finished its first tour of duty on a seven day outage here in Charleston, WV. It ran my entire house..including central A/C and even provided 120V service to my neighbor. It uses a little over a gallon of gas per hour but it's a small price to pay to keep our lives comfortable in 100 degree heat with no utility power. This is the portable unit to own.
