Same Max as the EM6500SX, Less $$$ Review by Winston Electric

I purchased several of these to install in customers homes. I am a die hard Honda fan! The EM5000 gives you the same peak wattage as the EM6500, for less money. It has 220v output and is reliable as they come. If you are looking for the 6500 watt, buy this one. It's available and less expensive. You won't be disappointed. (Posted on 1/21/12)

This over the EM6500 Review by Edgar

I got this Generator over the EM6500 because they will both surge to 7000 watts but the em5000 carries less of a burden on the kids college fund. I figured in an emergency I wouldn't use more power, I'd use less. The only things I need to power are the sump pump, fridge and heat. I had my neighbor install a pig tail off the breaker box and the generator just plugs right in. This gen is louder than the eu6500, but also less than half the cost. I guess the true test will be when the power fails, hope I don't have to use it for a long time. (Posted on 12/19/11)
