Super Bargains Now breaks the law!!!: My purchase from Super Bargain Now was a horrible experience. I recommend that Amazon should quit their affiliation with them immediately. Super Bargains Now advertised a price on their web page and I bought the product. They then refunded my money and said the price was no good. I will never do business with Super Bargains Now or Amazon ever again.… More reviews

I just did a fast and easy installation by backfeeding the house panel.… More reviews

Not rocket science... but...: This unit is a reliable beast. I suspect that direct buyers (no local dealer) might have difficulties getting their generator to peak perform, right off the pallet. This unit generally requires some fine tuning to run smoothly, and if you are not mechanically adept, buy a smaller unit with a Honda. The Generac motor has been around for… More reviews
