These Generac portables look great in the store or in ads. Great prices to
purchase, but they don't last. Costs more to repair than to replace. I
believe it is in the best interest of the consumers in Florida that the
attorney general pursue a Class Action Suit against Generac and Home
Depot. These companies have sold thousands of generators to consumers that
have failed to perform.
If you take the time to research generator complaints on the Internet, you
will find thousands of letters where consumers have been ripped off by
both of these companies who have made hundreds of thousands of dollars
selling inferior products and advertising and promoting them to be of
excellent quality. As your research will show, this is just not true. Not
only have the consumers complained, but the authorized service and repair
companies are also well aware of the inferior quality of the Generac
portable generators.

What a load of biased BS CRAP you are ass hole advertiser. Mine has
2000 hrs on it wale up hillbilly


Maybe not. There is a definite difference in quality between big box
Generac and normal quality Generac at least in the case of the home
depot units sold for permanent installation. My buddy bought the home
depot version and I helped him hook it up. It looks just like the real
one and looks like one of those large portable jobsite toolboxes with
the flip up lid. We couldn't believe how loud the thing was when we
started it. I am very familiar with the sound level of the normal units
because I work at locations that have similar sized units that look the
same. After some detective work the local service dealer told us that
the cases are the same but the home depot units had different
manufacturer lower quality engines. He also said those models weren't
known for long service life.
