The Generac GP7500 has 7,500 running watts and 9,375 starting watts, providing enough power to run most appliances and lights in a medium-size home. It has an electric starter and comes with a battery. Otherwise, its features are similar to those of the best-reviewed Generac GP5500 (*Est. $720) : five covered outlets including a 120/240 volt twist-lock outlet, automatic voltage regulation, an hour meter and a fuel gauge.
This larger generator is heavy at 201 pounds, so for portability it has a tubular steel frame, never-flat wheels and fold-down handles. Like other Generac GP generators it has a two-year manufacturer's warranty and a Good Housekeeping two-year, refund-or-replace guarantee. If you don't need this much power and want to spend less, the GP5500 wins praise from owners and experts.
