What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this generator for exceptional reliability during extended power outages, with many reporting it powered refrigerators, lights, and medical devices for 12-14 hours on a single tank. Reviewers consistently highlight effortless starting on the first pull and intuitive operation, even for those without technical experience. The built-in CO detector that automatically shuts down the unit at dangerous levels is frequently cited as a confidence-building safety feature. Most find it powerful enough for essential household systems, though some note the 3-foot power cord requires extension cords. A few mention assembly challenges or rare issues like fuel leaks, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by strong overall satisfaction.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I turned off the power in my home to test this generator out. Needless to say, I'm very impressed. It took quite a bit of gas to fill up, but it didn't burn through it at all. I let it run for an hour and I couldn't tell that any gas was used. I live in a three bedroom trailer. This generator let off enough power to keep my central air running and my refrigerator going as well. Assembly was extremely easy and laid out very well to understand. T...

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The unit was package very well and sturdy in the box. This is my fisrt time assembly a generator and this one was pretty easy. It only took about 45 minutes. I test this unit for about 4 hours for a total of five days. It is not as loyd as I thought it would be. No problem hooking up my cords. It has a twist adapter which is a plus. It also show how long you have for power. Lastly, I finally took this to a tailgating event. This works so ...

Just what I needed

Very useful
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is easy to use and is very convenient. Yes, it takes up some room in your garage and you might not use it frequently, but in Houston hurricane season it is worth it to be prepared. This won’t power your whole house, but it will keep the refrigerator running and a couple other things powered in the event the electricity goes out.

Awsome product!!!!!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is absolutely amazing! The quality is awsome and holds up great. The best thing I love about this generator is that it automatically monitors the co levels and shuts it down if it's too high. I have small children so this makes me feel so much better knowing that it's safe. Another thing that's great is it comes with the cord that you need for it. A lot of generators you have to buy that separate. Overall this is a really good ge...

Great Generator with lots of safeguards
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GP6500 CO-SENSE Portable Generator is really great. The machine is easy to put together, easy to use, works well, and provides many safeguards and creature comforts that are really nice to have. This unit was easy to put together, the instructions are clear and it comes with everything you need to get started. One of my favorite things about this unit is the CO-Sense Technology. Carbon monoxide is terrifying but this unit is engineered ...

Great product
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not sure why but our area is known for frequent power outages. This generator has helped during those times. It was easy to set up and use. Started within the first few pulls. Would definitely purchase again.

Bring on Winter
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in the country and we have had some hard winters when the electric has been out. We have been wanting a generator for a good while, and finally got one. I didn't know anything about this brand, but "wow"! It had very little assembly out of the box. It is very sturdy and came with large wheels and a handle that uses both hands to keep it balanced, which makes it easy to maneuver. The handle locks in place and folds down when you don'...

Great Generator!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The power cord has 4 places to plug things into and that is a nice feature. It has a handle which is great as you can move it and lock it in place. It was also easy to move. Loved the weather covers for the plug. Some of the directions, however, could use improvement. Started right up. Sounds great as it is running. This is a really nice generator.

Plenty of power, easy to start and terrific value!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator is rock solid and offers everything you would expect and more. This isn't the most quiet of generators compared to our Honda 3000, but it's twice the amount of power. The motor is exceptionally easy to start and it sips gas. Even under load, this motor doesn't use near the gas as expected. I would highly recommend this to anyone!

Nice to have.
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to finally have a generator. Where we live the power constantly goes out even if it’s a small storm. It stays out for hours and hours and we have three children and most of the time we weren’t prepared and had no batteries ready so we sat in the dark. No fun at all. Now I feel so much better because when it goes out we will still be able to have a couple lights on and a space heater. It gives me so much peace of mind. My husban...

Great Packaging!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Generac GP6500 is a very heavy generator nearly 200 pounds but it came in great packaging without any damage and is portable.. It was easy to assemble and runs great. Highly recommended.

Quality Generator!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good powerful Generator. It will keep my furnace, refrigerator, and freezer working during a power outage. The instructions to assemble the Generator could have been better. It took a little time to assemble it. Overall a really quality Generator.

Easy to Start
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my 3rd Generac portable generator not because the other ones went bad, but because we use all 3 as a service provider. These always start easily and provide the power we need at the various locations were landed power is not available. Fuel consumption is not the best, but you sacrifice using fuel for the amount of power you actually need. So my recommendation is don't oversize your generator to much for what you actually need.

Very powerful
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thankful for my generator from Generac. Now we will always have lights and other things when power goes out, Which is nice where we live in the country and they do not get our power on quickly. I really like it has a CO detector and will cut itself off if any is detected. Now my food will not ruin if power is off. This has a long run time, large gas tank and very powerful. Was very easy to setup. My husband even uses this on our property to po...

What a beast!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The GP6500 Pull Start, COS W/Cord 49 St is a beast, simply stated. This thing is powerful and it shows in its size. It hooks up so easily and really is ready to use as soon as you get out of the monsterous box! It is easy to read instructions too. You can power multiple things around your house easily and for hours. I live in a hurricane path near the Gulf and this will come in handy for years to come. It does weigh 200+ lbs so have someo...
