Good emergency generator

Received this as a gift for Christmas 2023, fallowed the brake-in steps. Got to put it too the test in September, hurricane Helena . I ran this generator for 4 days only to stop to add fuel, change oil at 48hr’s . Ran a freezer, refrigerator, window a/c and modem.

Reliable Power, Anywhere You Need It!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Generac iQ3800 is a game-changer when it comes to portable generators. Whether we’re powering up for a camping trip, a tailgate, or preparing for a hurricane, this unit delivers every time. The dual-fuel feature gives us the flexibility to use gas or propane, which is a huge plus in emergencies. The push-button electric start makes operation completely hassle-free—no pulling cords or guessing. It starts up smoothly every time thanks to the ...

Just the service, outstanding, plus Bulldog Generators experience was amazing, Lyn was excellent to deal with and I find the products . Awesome Just shocking actually how great it is. Thank you

Didn't work for me

It says this generator will run a 15000 btu RV air conditioner. But it kicks to overload every time. I have a small 28 ft pull camper. Buy a bigger one or a different brand. Now I have a generator I'll never use. For 800.00

Amazing product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Powerful, Reliable, and Easy to Use! The iQ3800 Dual Fuel Generator has been a fantastic investment for our outdoor adventures and emergency backup needs. It’s incredibly easy to start with the push-button electric ignition, and the included battery means no extra purchases or setup headaches. I love the dual fuel option, giving us flexibility between gas and propane depending on the situation. The Economy Mode is a nice bonus — it helps reduc...

Great for camping!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was perfect for camping! It powered everything we needed and was surprisingly very quiet compared to other generators I have seen used. Highly recommend!

Not Quite Adequate for RV AC

Despite it saying it will power a single rv ac, NOPE‼️ At least not here in Moab Utah. Keeps throwing a engine code on the control panels. Unit stays running but doesn't generate any power. And it doesn't throw the units breakers. My 30yr old Makita 3500 watt powered it just fine, but, it was much louder and thought the quieter unit would do the trick...WRONG‼️

Efficient and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The generator is somewhat heavy and I definitely needed my husband’s help to get everything all set up. Once it’s all put together, it is easy to roll around. My dad has a very old generator and compared to that this generator is pretty quiet. It runs smoothly and doesn’t burn through fuel. The panel is easy to read in the instruction manual was helpful. This is a solid unit and I’d highly recommend it as it is easy to use as well.

I purchased this portable inverter generator several months ago and I'm very happy with it.

Camping

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a smaller capacity generator - best for camping or just keeping the lights on during a power outage. It is heavy, but pretty easy to move with the handle and wheels. It has several different power outlets. We plan to use it mostly for our family's camper.

Quite clean power

The generator is easy to start and operate. It's also pretty quiet from what I'm used to. It uses very little fuel. It is very good quality. Generac is a brand i trust.

great portability

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This generator works like a change and super portable. It’s not super loud and it’s back a huge punch for performance. It’s fuel efficient and made to last!

Can Take Anywhere to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best we can take it anywhere with us comes in handy at my husband's workplace. Not too loud, very durable. Performance is amazing. You need to get one.

Soooo quiet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The iQ3800DF generator by Generac exceeded my expectations by a mile! Out of the box, it come practically assembled. All you have to do is add the supplied oil and gas and it is ready to start up. The dual functionality of gas and propane is one of many excellent features. It has a pull start as well as an electric push start button thanks to the supplied internal battery. My favorite part of this generator is the low sound levels. I could n...

Does what's it's designed to do - make power.

I purchased my Generac 3300I generator on 6/20/24 from Menards. I have used it on several occasions - camping, power outages, projects, etc. and now have 79.1 total engine hours (installed an hour meter when purchased). I have had perfect service, no issues whatsoever, and it has powered everything I needed to power. All I have done is to use Seafoam in the fuel, service the air cleaner and change the oil as recommended. I am a happy camper.

Not great

I bought it in January 15. I have only been able to start it twice. Neither time when I wanted to use it. I have another one of these that has worked fine for several years. This one is at a warranty repair shop and has been there over a month now.

Quiet yet powerful!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We originally didn't plan on opening up this generator until our Memorial Day camping trip next weekend but a downed tree on our power lines at home this passed week changed that plan! We were without power for just one day but with the help of our flashlights on our phones, my husband and I were able to put it together. The Generac iq3800 Dual Fuel portable generator comes fully assembled but we had to make sure the battery was connected, add ...
