good quality machine and good price
Just got generator today, it is replacing an older, smaller one of another brand. Put it together with no problems and it cranked right up and ran smooth. This will be for occasional use as a home backup generator. Looking forward to many years of service from it.

Good features, good price, easy to use
This generator was fairly easy to assemble and is easy to move, thanks to the extended handles. It’s reliable and efficient, and has plenty of available outlets. While not quiet, it’s not as noisy as others I’ve heard. We’ve waited many years to buy a generator, and this model, recommended by our electrician, has performed well in two outages shortly after our purchase.

Great unit with Excellent customer support
bought this unit, and had a major issue with it before it even had any hours on. I contacted customer support and had the issue resolved with one phone call. They sent out the parts right away, without any problems. now the unit runs perfectly. very happy with this purchase.

Love the first 8000 but the second generator let me down.
170 hours on generator -two months old
Stopped producing power. Not happy.
Power would come back when I jumped the field with a drill - spinning it backwards.
Brought to a dealer rep - we will see what they find. Hoping it will be under warranty without a battle.

Excellent quality
I purchased the Generac GP 8000E after a recent ice storm where we lost power for 2 days... also, have encountered power losses in summer with hurricane/wind storms.
Upon delivery, there was very little assembly necessary before it was ready for service. Excellent quality construction. Has a good set of features to make it easy to use with the electric start... maintenance to keep in it service looks minimal.
As the electrician, who installed our breaker panel interlock, stated... you have close to a whole house generator at a fraction of the cost."
