Although I have not had to use this for any length of time yet, it is easy for me to start up and ready for use. It appears to be as quiet as any portable generator can be.

I bought this generator for backup power to deal with Hurricane Sandy. It was easy to assemble and I was able to get it up and running quickly. The electric start (Model 6500E) came in handy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so happy 😀 I got the blessing to try this Generac generator out. It has wheels for easy mobility. It has a good amount of usage for camping ⛺️ nights and for black out days.

Clear, detailed instructions made setup easy. After setting up started first pull. Having purchased the unit for emergency I hope to never need it however, I may use it to power an electric string trimmer and blower, just to get to use it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is awesome. I was able to set it up alone- so simple! I love that it has three fuel options as well. I think my favorite part is the battery start- it fires up so quickly!

just add gas and oil (provided). storm arrived 3 days after generator was delivered. aprehensions were eliminated in 1/2 hr. also, it looks like a serious piece of machinery.

I know Generac has to compete, but I'd pay extra to know my generator was made in America. Great product started on first pull. Quieter than other generators in its class.

This generator was recommended for my house as a relatively inexpensive generator for needs in house, including well water pump and sump pump. It was recommended by my electrician.

This would have saved me tons of grief and the insurance comp lots of money. Product was easy to put together. Although I didn't loose power, I tested this on my whole house and never skipped a beat. Nice product.

After losing all of our food twice, I knew that wasn't going to happen again. Great generator. Starts easy and a reliable machine from a well known manufacturer.
