Ratings & Reviews for DEWALT 10000 Starting / 8000 Running Watt Gasoline Single fuel Portable Generator

Solid build

The instructions to assemble are absolute garbage. Incredibly small, and near impossible to identify parts. That's why I docked it a star. The machine itself is solid. Seems well built. The size of the machine should be handle my needs. This should be a dependable model.

Great to have in case of a power outage. Built extremely well..

Nice generator! Great for multiple applications. Power outages, camping,and job sites. The wheel kit was easy to install. Started right up after putting oil and gas in it. It only took 2 pulls,

High quality as expected from Dewalt

I am extremely happy with this generator. Came well packed and was very easy to put together. Took me about 15-20 minutes and that was taking my time. Started right up and works as advertised. It has enough power to run a home (without the A/C) so I’m considering adding an interlock to my house and using it as an emergency backup as we’ve had a few outages this year. Highly recommend!

DeWalt DXGNR6500 Generator Heavy-Duty Power

I recently received the DeWalt DXGNR6500 generator. It's got over 8000 starting watts and 6500 continuous running watts. Setup & Build Quality The unboxing was pretty easy . The packaging was very secure, and the initial setup took only about 30 minutes. I spent a little extra time just familiarizing myself with the overall operation procedures before firing it up. Right out of the gate, you can tell it is well-built, heavy-duty, and it honestly looks great. It is a fantastic size that would wor...

Good features and size for a semi mobile model

I have arthritis and it's hard to get the gas cap open. It runs between 74 and 80 decibels so wear hearing protection. Started on the second pull or use the electric start. Has a plain foam air filter and 2 position choke/run throttle. Includes an idle down switch when not running at load, but doesn't change the loudness much. No window or gauge to check gas levels. Has individual breakers for each outlet. Hard to change the battery with the wheel in place. Came with Generac generator oil. Heavy...

Not for construction work

The motor is made in Vietnam and seems to be made pretty solid. The frame on the other hand is pretty flimsy. I can see this for sure around the house and not more. This is will not make it in a construction environment. The wheels are rubber which is ok but somehow dent or flatten easily when dragging a few feet. When installing the feet I noticed the frame was bent pretty good. When I was tightening bolts the frame smushed easily. Output is good and runtime adjust when load demands. The select...

Easy to use and good quality

So excited for this! Dewalt never fails and this is not the exception,minimal assambly and easy to use, definitely worth it if you live in hurricane zones like me.

Impressive Large Generator

This generator is so easy to put together from the box. It also has a a handle and great wheels for moving around. DeWalt made a solid dependable generator here. Very impressive. Running on fuel, propane AND natural gas. I live in a place with tornados and ice/snow. We had no power last January. This would have been a game changer. I now have the piece of mind of this one for the future. I can run so many things at the same time and be safe and warm or cool.

Tough, feature packed, safe, powerful generator from a trusted name.

First things first. Right out of the box this thing looks amazing. I love the matte finish. It looks so neat and has such clean lines. The build quality is great. No doubt that this thing is built to last. Assembly took just a couple minutes. I added the included oil and 2 pulls is all it took to start. The locking handle and wheels make pulling this around easy. It is not light so eat your protein or get a friend if you need to lift it. I was a little concerned it would be loud but I was surpri...

Easy start, quiet and reliable.

I received this DeWalt 5600W Starting \ 4500W running generator this week and was excited to see how it performed. There's a bit of installation involved, but nothing to difficult... You need to install the wheels the handle, remove the shipping brackets and install the feet. You also need to add oil which is included with a funnel which is really nice and some fuel (not included) which they recommend non-ethanol premium gas. It's an absolutely beautiful generator with the nice bright yellow...

Powerful!

I’m really impressed with this DEWALT 10,500-watt generator. It has plenty of power to handle multiple things at once, and it starts up easily. The build quality feels solid and it gives me a lot of confidence that it will be there when I need it. We previously had a 9000 Watt Predator which is a good one but this DeWalt was able to run both ACs in our camper this past weekend. It’s definitely a bigger generator, but the power and reliability make it worth it. I would absolutely recommend it to ...

Easy to start up and start using!

The handle and wheels have to be assembled, but it was very easy. It came with oil and a funnel for the oil. Once together it started with just a couple pulls. It weighs around 128 lbs but it was easy for my husband to load in the truck on his own.

Has all the power and features you are looking for Has all the power and features you are looking for

This generator has the power in the features you’re looking for I’m using it as my backup generator for my home. With 10,500 running watts and 84 A it can handle any task. With a traditional pull start or choose auto start and carbon monoxide detection this bad boy is packed with features. 

A necessity

This generator arrived at the perfect time. We had bad storms move in and this was so handy! We went out and got it prepped and sure enough the electric went out. We were able to keep all the items in the garage fridge and freezer from losing any temperature. It’s gas powered up to 10 hours, has automatic low oil and CO detect shutoffs. It’s 165 pounds but has never flat plastic wheels and a nice handle bar to pull it. I’m really impressed by the quality of this generator. DeWalt brand has alway...

Great for use around the property and nice it can use multiple fuel sources to run

Works well so far. Used it in the garage just to test it out and worked really really well. Looking forward to getting the hook up put on the house for emergency situations. I really like that it can run off of gas or propane. I’ll likely end up hooking it into my propane tank for emergency use and use gas for ither situations around the property. It is heavy about 250 pounds so if you have an extra person to help put the wheels on, that would be a plus. I did that myself and it’s doable but th...

Do-What

Very very reliable me and my hubby use Dewalt to power our family food truck to feed the community every month. What a nice upgrade. Perfect size and the addition components make things that much easier. Noise level has a slight reduction and the safety features keeps us coming back for Dewalt!

Very powerful generator that supplied power for my ENTIRE home.

We had a storm in Tennessee the day it arrived and wouldn't you know it, the power went out. This generator delivered for 4 hours!!! It ran my entire 1500 square foot home and my garage with ease and was only utilizing 10% capacity. Assembly was very easy. I used a wood block to get the wheels which made it a breeze. This generator is a beast. You will not regret buying it.

I’m not saying that I’m looking for a blackout…

The new generator has arrived! Excitedly unboxed it and it’s heavy so you don’t have to worry about it blowing away! The setup and operations is easy to understand. I’m not saying I’m looking. For a blackout but I’m not afraid of one either! 😜

Amazing experience

Ray was phenomenal in helping getting the item loaded and went above and beyond to make sure everything was right

Great unit

We have this unit and after learning how to use it the first time it has paid for itself several times over the past year. It ran 7 hours yesterday before our power was restored with no problems.
