Great Generator, Horrible Assembly Instructions From Generac
By John N. 
Port St Lucie, Florida
Purchased 12/24/2019 | 
Review Posted 01/04/2020 
Ok i ordered this generator after doing quite a bit of research. It's not the cheapest but also not the most expensive but Generac does make really good generators. My biggest gripe with my purchase is the Generator gets delivered on a crate and it is bolted to the crate and you lift a cardboard box off the top and expect to find a "read me first" guide to unpacking. Nope you're on your own and good luck! Then if you get past that test it gets ten times worse, Their instruction manual sucks, there is truly no other way to say it.

A million nuts and bolts not identified with part numbers just a 1 inch by 1inch illustration to put the whole thing together. we just moved into our new home and i must have put together 20 pieces of furniture and shelves etc and i have never seen a worse assembly guide EVER! I called Generac for assistance in sorting this out and they tried to be helpful in sending me a you tube video on how to assemble BUT it was the GP 5000. completeley different. If you have the option to pay to have it assembled DO IT! i lost a day i won't get back
