Saved me

Would Recommend

I was in a huge bind this past week with the storms that hit Central WI. Found this available and it took care of the essentials: refrigerator, dehumidifier, some lights, and my work devices: laptop, 2 cell phones, hot spot puck. Easy to hook up and to use. Did not burn a crazy amount of fuel.

Powerful, but a bit loud

Would Recommend

Purchased this unit because of its availability at a local store and immediate need due to a 2 day power outage. Assembly was simple, appearance great as well as features. Had a bit of teou let with the left side 110volt receptacle popping the breaker Everytime I plugged something in, but it finally worked after the 4th attempt. I was able to run my saltwater reef aquarium that had fish dying, a deep freezer, fridge, satellite TV and sound system, and a lamp after experimenting and plugging in o...

Excellent buy for emergencies

Would Recommend

We are experiencing heavy rains and power outages in our area, sump pump is our main priority among other low wattage items like lights, tv fridge. We ran to a local lumber store during a 3” per hour rain hail and lightning event and purchased this generator. The assembly was easy along with startup. Performance was amazing and generator pulled us through without any problems. Thanks Generac for making this product available.

Generac GP3300 portable generator

Would Recommend

This is the perfect size generator for use on a farm. Very portable on the back of a gator for getting to areas where no electricity is available. We used it to operate a paint sprayer and it enabled us to paint fencing on all parts of the farm. Easy to operate as we immediately put it to the test and have run it two different weekends for several hours at a time. Bought the extension coverage from Lowe's so we hope it will continue to work well for several years.

Doesn’t put out as advertised.

Would Not Recommend

I saw this generator at Lowe’s., brand name, quality build, and ratted more power than I needed. Bought it and hooked it it. Rated at 3300 watts (40amps). Advertised with 30amp every plug and 20amp twist lock. Perfect!! But in actuality it only has a 14amp breaker. That’s 28amps at 220 or 14 at 110. 2350watt or 1175. So if you need 14 amps or less. Great. If you need 3300 Watts. Don’t buy.

Generator does not function as advertised.

Would Not Recommend

I bought this generator to power my small Kodiak 175 travel trailer. The breaker on the generator is only 14 amps and would trip when even a very light load was applied. I returned the Generac and purchased a Champion unit the same size. It works like a champ.

Good product

Would Recommend

I haven’t put a lot of hours on the machine yet but overall it’s very nice. Comes with all the features already on it so you want have add them later, hour meter, circuit breaker at 14 amps etc. Runs good, easily to move alone, starts easy. Instructions and manual is well done. My pull handle did break on the first crank and had to replace it.
