i did a lot of research before buying this model. the price, power rating and customer reviews are what determined that i buy this brand and model. since i just got it last week, i really cant say for sure how its going to work out but i am basing my 5 stars on the fact that it shipped fast and was delivered just 8 days after i ordered it. box was strapped to a pallet and delivered by truck and hauled right into my garage. the directions were pretty clear. i installed the feet and wheels, plugged in the battery,added provided oil. added gas. synced the key fob to the unit , turned the fuel shut off lever to on, flipped on the start switch and pushed the start button on the fob. it took less than two seconds for it to start. i have an electrician coming to install an interlock switch so i can run my house from this generator. he said this 7500 model should be fine for what i need. living in a state with brutal winters, its nice to know i have a way to survive in case of a long term power outage.
Haven’t had to use it yet, thank God, only because it came with no charger I received the charger, keeping charged and cranked. So easy for me to crank being a senior and having arthritis. I know I am going to love using it.
I bought this a couple of weeks ago to use as whole house power during power outages. I bought a 30 amp cord and hooked it to my transfer switch, started right up, powered my entire house with all lights and appliances and heat running, couldn’t ask for more!
We bought this on 4/4/24 due to a power outage our old one just would stay running we were without power from Wednesday Morning at 6:50 until Friday afternoon at 2:00PM this generator did a superb job keeping us warm and keeping power to the entire home, shop and garages. So happy with its performance.
