It works great. We are never without power and my wife could always charge her car.

Dependable
Only had it a month and it hasn't been needed, but the weekly exercise runs like clock work and so does the app.

Doesn't run! Doesn't work
Would Not Recommend15 plus thousand dollars waste of money. Our contractor called the generac service tech at our home 04/17. Unable to reach the generac service tech after the contractor spent most of the day at our home trying to get the generac generator to run.

Outstanding reliability
Would RecommendMy unit is 2 years old and has functioned during outages and twice a month exercising. It is reliable and provides a safety net for me during any kind of outage. The automatic transfer and start up/shut down make operation safe and reliable.

Peace of Mine
Would RecommendThis is what we needed for complete peace of mind. Starts automatically (we don’t have to be home), notifies us of status, and let’s deal know if there are any issues so they can plan to service the unit (we don’t need to figure it out and call them). Keeps our life simple and worry free.

Paperweight at Best
Just purchased the 18kw cellular 15 October 2025 by a Generac dealer. Unfortunately my Propane company couldn't set the tanks until the next morning. The Generac dealer hooked up a 20lb tank to run me through the functionality of the generator. After the Propane company hooked up the tanks to the supply line to the generator, I performed a power outage to ensure there were no issues. The unit lost wifi connectivity. I attempted to reset, but it wouldn't connect. I contacted the dealer/install...
