Great Investment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Generac GP9500E Tri Fuel Portable Generator, and it has proven to be an incredible asset for my power needs. The flexibility to run on gasoline, liquid propane, or natural gas with just a simple turn of a dial is a game-changer, making it incredibly convenient for various situations. With a robust 12,500 starting watts and 9,500 running watts on gas, it delivers consistent power for multiple applications, whether I’m us...

Reliable, easy to operate, and so versatile!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We own a cabin in North Carolina that was affected by hurricane Helene. Our power has gone out multiple times since and the Generac GP9500E Tri Fuel Generator is my new go-to source of confidence. What I appreciate most about this generator is its versatility. It can run on gas, propane, or natural gas, providing great flexibility when fuel options are limited. The maintenance process is straightforward, thanks to clear instructions, and LOVE t...

You absolutely need this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Y'all!! This generator is huge! Built to last and so quiet to use! Being able to use 3 fuels makes it accessible! Was so easy to assemble and easy to maneuver with its handles and wheels! It powers our big farm house with ease! Definitely going to be a big help during power outages or whenever we need added/extra power!

A BEAST for hurricane season!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in Central Florida, and unfortunately having a generator has become a necessity for the months of August-October. We’ve spent too many days post-storm without power, losing both groceries and our minds (from heat). With the hurricanes seemingly getting worse each year, we finally decided it’s time to invest. We jumped on a Generac due to the reliable name brand and reputable quality. Needless to say, the recommendations received from ...

Impressive power and features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is reliable and versatile, I’m impressed with its features and functionality. It can run from 3 fuel sources which makes it convenient for many emergencies or when you need it most. The wattage and power is impressive. This runs my deep freezer for hours without any issues. It was easy to assemble and the wheels and handle make it easy to move around. This generator is incredible, the noise level is surprisingly low for as much ...

Great item to have handy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great item. It us loud but not horribly loud. We hooked it up to the propane tank which it started up immediately. Great handle that bends down for storage. Many plugs to be used. A great item to have in your home for emergency. Every home should have one.

Powerful, Flexible, and Reliable Backup for Hurric

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with the Generac GP9500E Tri Fuel Generator! It’s very well-built and feels super sturdy. It is quite heavy, though, so I definitely recommend having two people to lift it if needed. Once you get the wheels installed, it becomes much easier to move around. The setup was pretty straightforward, there aren’t too many pieces, and I was actually able to put it together by myself, though it would go faster with two people. I’m ...

????

I used my generator once up to this point. It powered my house for a day. It’s a duel fuel generator, I wanted to use the propane option, read and reread the manual numerous times, but could not get it to work. I used gas. In order to get it looked at I’d have to lift the generator into my suv, which is impossible. I feel it’s ridiculous that I can’t get someone to my house to look at it, get it working properly.

Generac Is The Way to Go

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] During a recent power outage, my husband was able to connect our Generac GP Multifuel Portable generator to the breaker box. Worked perfect for powering the house. Generator was also great using power tools on an outdoor project.

Not the quality produced I expected

Would Not Recommend

I purchased my Generac generator right after the hurricane and initially it worked fine. After a day or so the 120V electrical panel started malfunctioning - the Ground Fault breaker kept tripping under load. Then it wouldn't reset at all. I had to source a four prong plug from Illinois to use the other electrical panel and that took days to get here. So, I had to go purchase a second generator - not a Generac. After normal household power returned, I took the Generac to a repair shop where it s...

Generac GP6500E TF Generator – Our Honest Experien

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were fortunate to be selected as part of a Generac campaign and were given the opportunity to try out the Generac GP6500E TF generator. After putting it to the test, we can confidently say: this generator is absolutely outstanding! Watch my video you can hear the noise level. For such a large generator it’s not loud, loud!

Fantastic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Oh wow! What an amazing opportunity to try this. We did use natural gas in this just to try it out and it was incredibly powerful! The unit is noisy but not so much that it would be a disturbance. Our old generator was much louder. This unit is quite compact and easy to move around. It will definitely come in handy when the power goes out! Love that it takes 3 different types of fuel too. Very convenient. Generac is such a trusted brand that la...
