“I bought this generator from you in 2018. only had to use it for about 10 hours since then, until the hurricane hit last week. we sat on the eyewall for 3 hours with winds in excess of 125 mph. our power went off during that time and I had to wait for the wind to subside some before I could go outside and turn it on. I had put it outside earlier and covered it so it was all hooked up. it started right up and powered us for 6 full days. I shut it down every morning to let it cool and check the intake and oil. it took about 2 ounces each day. When the power came back I rolled it back into the garage, cleaned it up, changed the oil and it is ready for the next time. It did everything I had hoped it would. Two of my neighbors asked me where I got it. I gave them the web address. The only issue I had was a light film of oil on the frame. I think the seal in the oil filler cap is not sealing correctly. Needless to say I am very happy with the machine. It kept us safe during the worst possible conditions.”
“I needed help with sizing of a gas hose and Jared was really helpful. I then ordered the gas hose with fittings and I am impressed with the quality of the product. Thank you for the customer support and for an outstanding product!”
“The purchase of an emergency generator power supply was determined to be a necessity for our family. We are of a modest income and simply could not afford a permanently installed emergency generator. The search for a suitable, high-quality manufactured portable generator was a uniquely frustrating exercise for us (many equipment dealers, including “big box stores”, have sales staff with a general level of technical knowledge of the equipment that they were selling that was consistently disappointing, and their availability of after-the-sale technical support was not confidence inspiring). We feel fortunate to have discovered The Motorhead® Dual Fuel generator, and that we purchased from SmartGenerators™…it has materials of construction with a fit, finish and function that we believe is entirely unsurpassed when compared with the existing market competition for a portable generator of similar size. Since the time that we have installed the generator, it started for the first time without any challenge and has performed flawlessly each time we have used it. We have relied on Shaun and Jared during our purchase and after installation with technical questions – they have always been accessible, and nothing other than very polite, professional and entirely knowledgeable of the equipment that they sell. We continue to feel very fortunate to have found Smart Generators and would highly-recommend this business and the products that they sell.”
“I want to THANK YOU for your continued support .n the purchase of my Honda portable generator. No question is unimportant and you give GREAT instructions on it’s operation. Shawn was very helpful in delivering the generator and helping me understand it’s operation. I purchased the generator last year and you still remember me like it was yesterday. PS- My wife NOW can sleep comfortably knowing we have the generator .”
“I was DESPERATE for a 50 amp, whole house, portable generator fueled by natural gas Jared saved the day. He and his partner were unreal. The Motorhead Plus Dual Fuel does it all. Easy to use...easy to roll not very loud, what more can you ask for !!!!!”
“Hi Shaun and Jared, Just wanted to tell both you guys Thank You for answering all my questions the couple times I contacted you. I received my generator on time and it was in perfect condition. I hooked it up to my house electrical system and it worked perfectly powering my three ton air conditioner and lights I am totally pleased with my unit and Thanks again for all your help. Peace!”
“Jared: I hope all is well with you and your family and y’all are well and safe. I hope your business hasn’t suffered terribly. You may not remember, but I purchased a Patriot from you last December. I finally got the permanent lpg tank and interlock/transfer switch completed and everything works great. I have a 2 and 3 ton A/C unit and it will easily start and run both of them at the same time. I tested the generator with an estimated 14 kw continuous load and it handled it fine. Later that same day, we had a lightning strike and were without power for about 6 hours. I rolled the Patriot back out and in 5 minutes we were cooking dinner on the electric stove with A/C while watching TV over the Internet, Patriot never missed a beat. I realize this would probably have increased the cost, but my only complaint, and it’s minor, is the lack of engine idle for a cool down period. I went to your website to leave a review, but I see you no longer carry the Kohler engine generators. Hopefully, this is due to Covid and you will be able to resume carrying them in the future. I’ve already given your website to someone who bought a gasoline generator and wishes he had purchased an lpg one. One of my wife’s coworker’s husband purchased a no name China Star from one of the big boxes and it ruined his refrigerator. When we have another major outage, and we will, friends and neighbors will want to know how we are surviving so well. I will certainly send them your way. I did extensive research and the quality of your products is far above anything else I looked at. Thanks for putting together such a fine product. Sincerely, a very satisfied customer, Jody”
“My Last comunity i lived in had natural gas so i had a 12kw generator... this ran my 3 ton ac and the whole house... Our new community would have let us get a generator but i was limited to the amount of propane i could use.. plus they wanted 3 k just to hook up the tanks... First i have experience in the home improvement field. with a background in electric... I was impressed with smart generators as you have to look at everything.. you want a good generator or you won't get clean electric.. Yes that matters.. i was not living in florida for irma as we came right after that.. i was on long island for sandy but somehow ended up in a small pocket of not losing electric... After irma the damage to the homes was not a terrible issue as most are build to withstand a cat 3... it was 11 days with no power in a 110 degree house.. with that said you want a generator that is quality as you are asking it to run 24/7 .. i am a bit of a safety nut but i did buy a explosion proof cabinet that will hold 120 gallons of fuel. i keep 45 on hand with stabilizer and will get more if a storm is coming.. omn of my cans has a pump so the two cars can be used for gas very easily as i can siphon them out.. i was impressed with the support from Smart generator.. i will not go into the types but every question i had they would contact the generator company... with in hours i had questions answered... They have no problem helping you out after the sale... did i pay more ? Yes i paid for a quality unit.. a Honda engine with a top of the line alternator that is for professional use and will last many years.. i will post more when i am up and running but again they have been there to answer my questions... i know i am not going to run my whole house as everything is electric but i will run my 3 ton ac my fridge and micro. and lights... they have choices of natural gas units if you have that.. it is a lot cheaper as i paid 13 k todo a stand by at my other home. this house would have been 18k... yes i got the storage cabinet but that is personal choice. i highly recommend this company.”
“Having grown up in a state exposed to hurricanes every summer my entire life, I just (finally) purchased The Motorhead Portable Generator from Smart Generators, LLC. THE BEST EVER! DON'T CONSIDER ANYTHING ELSE! Bought at a good, fair cost producing fantastic power. It rolls out of storage easily - on 4 wheels, not just 2 - connects to gas lines in seconds, hooks up to my electric panel with extraordinary ease, then starts up and runs my ENTIRE HOME, including my 5-ton central air for days! It sets up quickly and replaces FPL, if needed, in seconds! And when I had a question about what or how to do something, I asked Jared Katz/Smart Generators via e-mail and got the answer within minutes. Wow! My greatest praise for and thanks to Smart Generators, LLC for the unique, life-saving generator, Jared Katz for his quick and constant help, and Brain Eckel, a brilliant electrician who runs Starquest, for making the connection and giving me the advice. I highly recommend The MotorHead!”
“Hi Sean, I want to thank you for the excellent service you provided on my Honda tri-fuel generator. It needed a new battery, but the small adjustments you also recommended and completed have made running our generator even quieter and easier. I also really appreciate the tips you provided as well as taking the time to answer my questions. Your commitment to customer satisfaction and getting the details right is outstanding! The generator's running great and, though I hope we won't need it, I know it's ready for any emergency. Thank you!!”
“Hi Jared, Just following up on my generator woes. We did install the new battery, and the generator started right up. There was some stuttering and backfiring, and I pulled out the choke a bit and then put it back in when the engine was running smoothly. After that, it was fine. Do you think there is another issue? We were happy to be able to start it and have it run. We even got the zombie box assembled around the unit. Thanks for brainstorming with me and for your patience”
“Shaun I received delivery of your machine. Everything looks great! I appreciate your help in talking me through the issues. Easy to install the wheels and stand. I am very pleased with my decision. The hose looks good. My plumber is going to connect next week. Gerry -- Massachusetts”
“This has got to be the best deal on the internet. The quality of this machine, plus the customer service of Shaun made this one of the best buying experiences I have ever had! Thank you so much for all your advice!”

“The TriFuel SG7500 is a great generator, with an unlimited supply of fuel from my natural gas meter! The generator and accessories shipped promptly, and set up was straight forward with no surprises. This generator supplies more than enough power to run my HVAC , refrigerator and house lights. It runs very clean and I literally cannot smell any exhaust. From inside the house, I can notice it running, but it is not intrusive. The GenTent allows low cost all-weather portability.”
“Perrrfect new Generator! The SG7500 ( NG fuel) easily provides enough emergency power for my 2000 sf home in Greensboro NC, with manual load management. I turned on most of the lights, then turned the heat up. The generator barely noticed the hvac kicking in. With the unit placed 30' from the house, the sound is not intrusive whatsoever. The NG burns so clean, that I cannot smell the exhaust even when standing next to it. Jared provided me with a 50' NG hose, with fittings, and I can get this genset up and running in less than 5 minutes. I have run it powering the house for roughly an hour total, and I have confidence in it. The battery tender, which is included, keeps the battery topped. while I have an unlimited clean fuel supply from my own natural gas meter.”
“Hi Jared. You sold me a generator 3 years ago... 10k powermate/ kohler... still runs great... I have to share this with u. My Wife passed 2 yrs ago. I had not started my generator since then. This morning I fired it up and it started immediately. Your Natural gas kit performed outstandingly... Thank you. AL⚓️”
“Wow, it looks even more impressive in person! I was between the Motorhead and this generator. After speaking with Jared I was convinced I could go with this model. So happy with my purchase.”
“I wanted a portable LPG generator that has a HONDA engine and I finally found one that was built so well. I needed a frame and full panel so I went with the SG7000B1. Love it!”
“What a great deal on a Honda powered LPG/Natural Gas portable generator. I don't mind that they used a simple frame to get the price down. I keep it dry by running in my shed.”
“I decided to go with this model over the SG7500K because of the higher quality genset made by Mecc Alte. 10,000 hours without any needed maintenance was a big deal to me. Now I feel prepared for anything!”
“I just received our KOHLER tri fuel generator. It runs so easily on all 3 fuels. I ordered both KOHLER hoses to have that ability. Exactly what I was looking for.”
“Thanks for helping on the call yesterday. We heated up the unit and it started with propane so probably just the oil kill switch was the issue yesterday. We also then got it to start on natural gas. For our unit, propane adjustment was 4.5 turns and natural gas adjustment was 5.25 turns. Ran great, we tested it under panel load all good.”
“I wanted to send you this note expressing my appreciation for the outstanding product and services provided by Smart Generators. It is refreshing to interact with people who will always respond in a timely, knowledgeable, professional, and courteous manner. I would certainly recommend Smart Generators to anyone seeking the type of generators you provide.”
“The people at Smart Generators have been very helpful and supportive. I give them an excellent recommendation. Even after my warranty was expired, one of the owners, Jared came to NJ from Long Island to help me out. My generator wasn’t working and he came equipped with a new battery and installed it. He did not charge me! He was extremely helpful and delightful to work with.”
“I think your customer service and your product is outstanding. I do recommend Smart Generator to everyone, as I talk to people about prepping. Jared has been very helpful in answering all of my questions. Also questions about installation, since my situation may be a little different than normal. I’m sure Jared will play a very big factor in getting my job completed. I highly recommend Smart Generators and Jared!!!”
“Smart Generator’s service was everything that I wanted and needed. They provided knowledgeable, timely and personal attention to all of my questions along with very competitive pricing for my new natural gas generator. I highly recommend Smart Generators!”
“Generator is very impressive, Nick did a fine job hooking it up & explaining everything! I was pleased to find out that your business would be taking care of any warranty claims. (very improbable considering quality of unit) Should be hearing from my neighbor (very impressed) with the unit. Thanks again.”
“These guys are the experts of tri fuel generators, ask them anything they will not disappoint. They told me they weren’t sure if I could run my central air on this but I did it!”
“Although I am happy I have not had to use my generator as of yet. Once a month I set it up and start it with the remote starter. Everything works great and kicks over in a few seconds. 5 stars from this happy camper, and thanks again for all your help.”
“I love my generator, its a beast! I can run my entire house of this baby. Thanks for everything, the great advise, the free installation, and the class you handled everything with.”
“Thank You Jared and Shaun for a smooth transaction and Quick Delivery and Set-up…..Your Knowledge helped us to choose the generator for our needs and also for taking the time out to explain its operation and answer our questions.”
“Thanks for all your help in finding a great generator for us it works great and saved us so many times when the power went out I would recommend Smart Generators to all my friends and family.”
“Finally ran the gas line and hooked up today. We ran out the gasoline, turn it off and bled the NG pressure unit and it worked fine. Thanks for your help!”
“Bought this two years ago and just getting around to the review. I use this Genny to run my camp house at the deer lease. It is a bit overkill for my purposes but has performed flawlessly coming up on 400hrs over 8 months of use. I usually run it ~ 30hrs per weekend. just make sure you change your oil on schedule and check it every 8hrs of use or so.”
“So it’s been 2 or so years since I purchased a generator from you. Tonight we lost power for several hours and I got a chance to use my generator. It purred like a kitten on natural gas I have an interlock kit on my panel on a 30 amp circuit to the outside so I feed my house. Both heaters worked and we stayed warm. Thanks so much for everything. It’s a comfort knowing we have this type of protection.”
“Thanks for the quick delivery of the Honda powered Tri Fuel Generator. And, of course, the work you did in setting the generator up and testing it in the back of my house. Since then, I have shown and run the Honda to my neighbors who were very impressed. Again, I am very happy with the whole process–from the beginning until now. You guys are terrific!!”
“It’s loud, but quieter than I expected. For a neighborhood where the houses tend to be at least 50 yards apart, this is not an intolerable noise level in my judgment. It seems to be no louder, and might actually be quieter, then the generators that my neighbors run. If you are really worried about noise, spend an extra $3000 and purchase their Honda inverter generator!”
“I want to thank you for the wonderful service you gave us. The first generator had a problem and you were so generous to come and personally exchange it for another. Rhode Island is not next door and your man came and was very generous with his time and explained everything to us. We would certainly use your services and company in the future.”
“I am writing to thank you for your customer service, your prompt delivery and excellence of my generator I bought from you. My generator works precisely as advertised! The problem I had was in shipping and you not only responded immediately but arranged for a minor service, pickup and delivery at NO charge! I was a little concerned about placing an order over the internet for this item but could not be more satisfied with the result! I feel very lucky to have found you and received better service than I would get locally and a very good price! I recommend N.Y. Smart Generators to anyone looking for a great selection of top end products and a company that stands up for its customers (No questions asked). I did a lot of research before I ordered a generator and chose N.Y. Smart Generators and feel lucky I did!”
“This is the most powerful portable generator I have ever seen. Runs my 2 ton central air conditioner with ease while powering all the rest of our necessities such as lights, refrigerator, computers, WIFI, etc. And with a Honda engine, you know it reliable. Just what I was looking for.”
“I am so glad I purchased this generator before the winter snow storms. We have been powering our entire home (with heat) for the last few days. Best decision I made in a long time.”
