Took 3 units to get a good one

Overall nice looking took 3 units to get a good one 1st one display not working properly, 2nd unit the first ones replacement exhaust plastic broken, corner of metal not in plastic looking on the inside wire loom was wore though and date codes were 2 years old, 3rd unit good so far. but used less then an hour.

Good build quality, and Quiet.

So this is my first time owning a decent sized generator, and I didn't want to skimp on quality. this generator has surpassed my expectations, it is very quiet (on my last camping trip I even had a few people ask me if it was running when it was). I have only used it twice so far since I bought it so I can't say much about the reliability but I know that Generac makes some good products, so it should last me a long time. It does have some good features, what I like the most is it has a digital r...

Super quiet!

Bought this portable for my camper as a backup and for state parks where there isn’t any electrical hookups. Went with Generac because i also have a 17KW on my home. Excellent brand! I was surprised by how quiet this guy is. You walk 10 feet and it is like its barely audible. I recommended it to my friend who was looking for one. He bought the same model (iq 3500) and he is also thrilled! I can highly recommend this generator for performance, affordability and looks.

Excellent quality and features at a reasonable price

This generator will be used for off grid camping.

Surprisingly quite. We are very pleased with this purchase and are ready ...

IQ3500

I just purchased a IQ3500. The unit came with everything needed less the gasoline. I read the manual and filled the unit with the provided oil, added 100% gas and fired it up. It started immediately and ran great. Ultra quite and very smooth. I plugged in some lights for a lite load and ran it for 1.5 hours. I shut it down and checked the oil level. I am very happy with my purchase. This is my second Generac generator that I own. My older one is an 11 year old 7500 watt and still runs like new. ...

IQ3500

I usually never purchase a new product for which I can not find other reviews. I purchased this generator for the portability and the compact size. I am 100% glad I bought this model. Started the first time, ran quieter than I expected. I am considering on purchasing a 2nd unit and hook them up parallel with each other.
