Great generator

just received my 17500E. Set-up & start-up was easy. Can't wait to use it. If it works as well as my old 10000 EXL I'll be more than pleased.

Great generator

Would Recommend

Just purchased this unit. Easy to assemble and service to run. Started in just a couple of revolutions. Low idle works as ment too. When power is needed it throttles up. Started my 4 hp compressor for initial test. No problem. I would recommend this unit.

A monster generator

Would Recommend

Very easy to assemble and operate. Bought this in conjunction with Generac 50 amp outdoor manual transfer switch. We'll be ready for the next power outage.

power to spare

Would Recommend

I just purchased my Generac and I must say it has the power to run everything I need it to run. I ran a test to see how it would perform and I have no complaints whatsoever. I will recommend it to everyone I know!

Better than the rest.

Would Recommend

After extensive research, IMO this unit has all the spec's I require to run my home in an emergency power outage. After Irene and Sandy leaving me out of power for a combined 25 days, I don't have to split wood any more. This unit was more than adequate for running the 240v essentials in my home, furnace, water pump, water heater and my son's fish tanks. I suggest getting a unit that is a little more than you need. This one is 50 amps, My new GP15,000E was a lot quieter than I expected and the i...

very good value for the price.

Would Recommend

very easy to set up and started right up. only problem I found was trying to find out how much oil the motor holds. did not find it in the manual. put oil in and kept checking dipstick until it was full. that was the only flaw I can find with it.noise level is a lot less than the generator it is replacing. if you need a big generator I would recommend this one.

Best 15,000 watt generator for the price

Would Recommend

I looked all over and this is deffinetly the best generator for the money. You won't find a generator of this quality at a lower price. Took about 10 minutes to put everything together and I had the generator running in no time. The extra oil filter and air filter are a nice touch. Very pleased with my purchase. I expect this generator to give me many years of service and peace of mind.

Good Basic generator with lots of power

Would Recommend

I purchased this generator to run my house in-case of a power outage. It runs the 5 ton ac and everything else no problem. I did put a hard start kit on the ac but I dont think it was needed. We have four dogs so if the power goes out in the summer we have no place to take the dogs this gives us a piece of mind. My 7kw was good for the winter we have gas heating. Cant beat the price!!

Plenty of power reserve.

Would Recommend

This is a great unit with more than enough power for my home. The only thing it needs is a quieter muffler system.

Excellent generator.

Would Recommend

This generator came well crated and delivered on time. I was impressed with the ease of start up and was amazed at the included maintenance kit. (extra spark plugs, plug wrench, primary and secondary air filter, oil filter). I have not had a chance to power the entire house with the unit but it starts easily and runs strong. Although I do not look forward to a lengthy power outage (which has been more frequent lately in my rural setting) I feel much more at ease having a well built machine as a ...

Workhorse of a Generator!

Would Recommend

Can't wait for the power to go out. This generator will definitely get us through the storm! Our electrician said that we could probably sell power to the neighbors with this one! LOL Worth the investment.

Has everything I need!

Would Recommend

This is an excellent generator for the price. Starting with the person that took my order, he answered every question I had and it took no time at all to get it ordered with a delivery date that was met! Assembly was a snap. It took no time at all! I put 4x4's under the frame then installed the axle brackets and the axle. The tires were just a bit wider than the pallet, so once the tires were installed, all I did was roll the generator off the pallet! It started up easily and all plugs put out t...
