Efficient and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The generator is somewhat heavy and I definitely needed my husband’s help to get everything all set up. Once it’s all put together, it is easy to roll around. My dad has a very old generator and compared to that this generator is pretty quiet. It runs smoothly and doesn’t burn through fuel. The panel is easy to read in the instruction manual was helpful. This is a solid unit and I’d highly recommend it as it is easy to use as well.

Camping

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a smaller capacity generator - best for camping or just keeping the lights on during a power outage. It is heavy, but pretty easy to move with the handle and wheels. It has several different power outlets. We plan to use it mostly for our family's camper.

Soooo quiet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The iQ3800DF generator by Generac exceeded my expectations by a mile! Out of the box, it come practically assembled. All you have to do is add the supplied oil and gas and it is ready to start up. The dual functionality of gas and propane is one of many excellent features. It has a pull start as well as an electric push start button thanks to the supplied internal battery. My favorite part of this generator is the low sound levels. I could n...

Does what's it's designed to do - make power.

Would Recommend

I purchased my Generac 3300I generator on 6/20/24 from Menards. I have used it on several occasions - camping, power outages, projects, etc. and now have 79.1 total engine hours (installed an hour meter when purchased). I have had perfect service, no issues whatsoever, and it has powered everything I needed to power. All I have done is to use Seafoam in the fuel, service the air cleaner and change the oil as recommended. I am a happy camper.

Not great

Would Not Recommend

I bought it in January 15. I have only been able to start it twice. Neither time when I wanted to use it. I have another one of these that has worked fine for several years. This one is at a warranty repair shop and has been there over a month now.

Quiet yet powerful!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We originally didn't plan on opening up this generator until our Memorial Day camping trip next weekend but a downed tree on our power lines at home this passed week changed that plan! We were without power for just one day but with the help of our flashlights on our phones, my husband and I were able to put it together. The Generac iq3800 Dual Fuel portable generator comes fully assembled but we had to make sure the battery was connected, add ...

Great new iQ model to the lineup!

Would Recommend

Great new product from Generac. We also have their other iQunit, iQ3500, which we use for camping and other needs but needed something with more functionality and ability to connect to our LP tank which this product solves our need. Super quiet, easy to start and move around with the added wheels vs the prior model.

30 Pulls

Would Recommend

I have not needed to use it yet. I have been running it with a load (Waffle Iron) one a month. It is difficult to start. Each time it has required 30+ pulls to start! I do select the start position on the choke.

Ready When We Need It!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was lucky enough to receive the Generac Dual Fuel Portable Generator as a gift from Influenster for review, and while we haven’t needed to put it to the test yet (thankfully, no power outages!), I can already tell this is a game-changer for our home. From the moment it arrived, I was impressed. The generator feels incredibly well-built — solid, durable, and thoughtfully designed. The dual fuel capability was one of the first features that ca...

Electricity on wheels!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve never had a generator before and now we don’t have to worry about our power going out! This is literally electricity on wheels! It was very easy to set up and fairly quiet when it’s running. It runs on either gas or propane. We will be using it on camping trips or if the electricity goes out. It’s very compact and easy to move around. All in all one powerful generator!

Powerful and practical!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so happy with this generator! It takes up less space than I had anticipated and is easy to store. It weighs just over 100lbs. Living in an area prone to power outages and wildfires, earthquake threats etc, and caring for animals requiring me to access to power at all times, it is really practical for me to have this on hand! It delivers exactly what I need, performs how I want without excessive noise, and doesn't waste fuel, which is a bonu...
