| Electric Generators Direct Recommendation |
| By Electric Generators Direct |
We like the Honeywell 7500 watt portable generator for three reasons.
1. It's In-Stock
Ever since Hurricane Gustav and Ike, large generators are extremely difficult to find in stores. We have a limited supply of these generators. We expect them to sell fast.
2. It's Affordable
This generator is a steal compared to other brands. Plus, Honeywell is a well known brand.
3. Gen-Cord is Included
We're selling similar cords for nearly $100. Honeywell actually includes it with the generator. |

| A Great Generator |
| By Michael Dingess (Steubenville, OH) |
This is a great generator. It started as soon as I pushed the button.
It is a little hard to put oil in. Easy to assemble the wheels and handles, though. |

| Great Product |
| By Franco Antonetti (Horseshoe Bend, AR) |
I had a horrible experience last Winter when an ice storm had us without power for 9 days. Since then I have been comparing and checking out many Generators.
Having found this one, and comparing features, I decided to buy it:
It came on time.
It was what it was advertised.
It was simple to put the few additional pieces on (the legs, axle and tires. Also adding oil and finalizing installation of the battery, and fuel of course.)
One attempt and it started right up.
Not as loud as many others, and hopefully, I never have to use it for an emergency event.
Great product. |

| Never Thought I Would Use it |
| By Rene Charpentier (Deerfield, NH) |
I purchased the Honeywell HW7500E in December 2009 after losing our power for 2 days in November after an Ice storm.
My wife and I went back and forth and I finally gave in. In February 2010 we got a classic Northeaster with 100 MPH winds and pretty much the entire state is without power.
The generator started right up and has been running for 6 days straight now. When not using the well pump it has more then enough power to supply the entire house.
It is very quiet in comparison to the neighbors. Hopefully it will continue running strong.
EGD RESPONDS: Please don't forget to change the oil at the intervals listed in your Owner's Manual!
For this model, Honeywell recommends an oil change after the first 20 hours of use; and then every 100 hours after that. |

| No Problem |
| By Al McGee (West Plains, MO) |
Ordered My 7500E 2 days ago, received it today. It was ready to go in around 30 minutes.
I had no trouble with the funnel when filling oil. I fueled it and it started within 3 seconds.
I ran it for about 30 minutes powering 2 freezers with no problems. |

| Very Pleased |
| By Patrick Meagher (Chesterfield Township, MI) |
The generator was delivered quickly (2 days) and was simple to assemble and start.
Everything you need is in the box, including oil.
I am very pleased with the service and the product. |

| Very Nice Unit |
| By Fred Ruiz (Valparaiso, IN) |
The unit is easy to assemble (takes about an hour) and mine started right up. Its fairly quiet, although I wouldn't say very quiet.
Instructions are easy to understand and its fairly compact.
This 7500 watt unit was in the sweet spot for me and considering the wattage and cc of the motor I think this is a great value.
Complaints are that the battery was a little difficult to get to for installation and my biggest complaint is that the oil fill hole is just really awkward and messy.
Oh, and Electric Generators Direct is great. They were very friendly and accomodating and shipping was super fast. Great price and 6 months same as cash can't be beat. |

| Honeywell HW7500E |
| By Robert Willis (Houston, TX) |
Ordered the Genearator while I was in San Antonio, Texas evacuating from Hurricane Ike.
Electric Generators Direct shipped the generator On-Time, and R&L Carriers delivered it on-time in San Antonio, TX.
The generator was easy to set up and was operational in about thirty minutes. The generator started up immediately.
Thanks for the EXCELLENT service !!!! |

| How to Start a Portable Generator |
| By Jon Hoch, Founder (Bolingbrook, IL) |
The best way to ensure your generator lasts is to start it properly the first time.
Most of us are too proud to read owners manuals.
If you watch this video instead, you'll take better care of your generator, and it will last you much longer.
Enjoy. |
