Can you summarize the following review in 1 sentence:   "Got the first gp3500io on prime days because my buddy had 1. I really liked it because it's only 80lbs. for a 3kw genset. It's reasonably quiet considering that it's an open frame as well. It's also parallel capable to. But I give it 1 star for the factor that I had not only 1 unit that surged right out of the box, but even the replacement did the exact same thing!! I'm definitely not impressed with how cheap generac has become because they're a name that's been around for a long time, unlike alot of the other units I've seen out there. I've found nothing online about the cause or even really anyone else who has had this issue except 1 other reveiw on here. I'm a pretty handy and knowledgeable guy but I've never seen this except in older units that have garbage in the carburetor. I've even tried replacing the carb and it changed nothing. Also the unit was pulling the oil through the breather box right back into the carb. So this issue is clearly a faulty part on generac's behalf. Also I talked to tech support from Generac. That was a waste of time. All the person told me was that it had to go to a "certified" shop to determine if it is even a warranty issue! I'm pretty sure that a unit not working right from out of the box, no matter what the issue and/or cause, is a warranty issue. So take heed when considering this as a purchase. Just remember, You get what you pay for." Write your response with exactly 4 paragraphs, separated with the markdown divider: ***.
