Great Generator!!! So grateful for it!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wonderful generator! Heavy duty. Gas fueled. Works great and cost effective. The only downside is that it's very heavy and you need more than one very strong person for initial set up or to even move it and put it together!

Must Have!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you so much for the opportunity to test out this generator! It was incredibly easy to use. I did need a bit of help setting it up since it's quite heavy, but once we got it on the wheels, it was a breeze to move around. That feature alone makes it so convenient to take out of storage when it's needed. The generator runs beautifully, and without jinxing myself, I'm actually looking forward to using it when the time comes. It has more than enough power to keep all my essential appliances running during an outage. I really can't say enough good things about it!

Dependable generator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took our new generator to deer camp this weekend and wow what an incredible generator. It is the perfect size for what we needed. Easy to move around and transport, not overly heavy. Is a dependable unit and had no issues at all. Easy to install parts for wheels, handle and legs. My 10yr old put it all together and filled it with the supplied oil. I highly recommend a generac system for all your needs. Generac even makes whole home systems for if you loose power. We will be looking into purchasing one of those for our home.

Works well for small things. Instructions are conf

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The generator works well for small things like camping or a few devices at a time. I wouldn't use it for a whole house but it could handle my essentials if I needed it to. The set up is not intuitive and the instructions are horrible. They should definitely include clearer instructions and pictures or how to set up the device and how to operate it. It's quite heavy but easy roll around once the wheels and handles are attached.

Highly recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator works great! Has a long battery life too which is incredible. Easy to use and start thankfully. It has a lot of power to it. Also has wheels to move around which is great because it's heavy otherwise.

Good in a pinch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This portable generator will work in a pinch if there is a power outage. It's easy to use, easy to move, and has enough output to power most appliances. Buyers should understand that generator won't be able to power multiple major appliances, but you can power a refrigerator or freezer just fine! The GP5500 runs on unleaded gasoline and has a run time of about 10hrs. It was easy to assemble and took about 20mins to put on the handle, wheels, and rubber feet. I've only put about 4hrs of time on it so far and it has worked great. Overall, if there is a major power outage, you can count on this generator to function when you need it.

Great quality

The Generac generator that I purchased for our fiber splicing trailer has been great. We haven't had any issues thus far. It is easy to start and starts quickly even in cold weather. It is very quite compared to most others and the gas usage is very minimal. We are more than pleased with our Generac!

Awesome well built generator!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an awesome generator!! Just the quality of it is immensely high quality. It is definitely heavy, it did take 3 people to get it up stairs. However, once the handle and wheels are installed it's much easier to handle and move. The controls are nice and not too complex once you read the instructions. Its fantastic for camping!

A must have on the farm for power outages! We will

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased with the Generac Dual Fuel Generator. I gave it a try on my farm and it effortlessly powered anything I asked of it. Skill saws, lights, anything! It was easy to assemble. Propane took a minute to get started but gasoline fuel fired right up. The only reason I knock of one star is the difficulty we had starting it initially. Noise level is adequate for it's size. I couldn't imagine the farm without it. It also provides me comfort to know it's ready when needed for one of our many power outages!

Dual fuel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being in Florida, you never know when a hurricane is going to come to having a generator is a luxury. This takes both gasoline and propane, which is nice if you can't find one or the other can be wheeled around and not too big to store.
