Very efficiently executed project
October 25, 2023 by Phu14
We went with GenX Generator on the recommendation of a friend/neighbor who also purchased through GenX Generator, as have several other housrholds in our neighborhood. What I like most is that they know the process thoroughly, from sizing our unit, obtaining permits, and installing. It gives us great confidence we will have a excellent relationship for service and maintenance. While we hope never to need it, having backup power is very comforting.
Good Experience - recommend

Highland Park Electric gave good info, installed as expected, & I will use them for annual maintenance, etc.
Dealer is great

GENX was prompt and professional. They did what they promised. Even the cleanup exceeded my expectations.
Thankful for the referral!
January 12, 2022 by JR13
Two neighbors used this company and spoke highly of the whole process from beginning to end. From everything I was told, our installation received the same high level of service, care and responsiveness.
Only Dealer i would deal with

We hired GenX (of Highland Park Electric) in Highland Park to install our whole house generator. They did an excellent job: from coming out to see what needed to be done to recommending what would work best for our needs, to installing, and then servicing our generator. They were responsive to our questions and kept in contact with us throughout the process (scheduling the installation, changing the date of installation due to OUR needs, etc). I am more than pleased with their service, communication, and professionalism and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of getting a generator installed at their home.
Professional installation but weak responsiveness on follow-up questions
June 25, 2021 by Bill
Good equipment and very professional installation at reasonable price. Has not responded to emailed follow-up question on related electrical work, however.
Generator is outstandinf.

This dealer is outstanding got our generator installed in record time. Great company to work with staff very friendly and helpful.
Great service, people and products at this dealer
April 8, 2021 by Cookie2
EVERYONE throughout was professional, helpful and knowledgeable. We had some bumps with the permit and these guys went above and beyond to help. Top notch customer service. I am very pleased overall.
Exactly as described!
April 5, 2021 by Masterpln
Impeccable service from the sale of the unit through the installation. Everything you want in a service plus more. Respectful and knowledgeable-highly recommend!
Fantastic installation
March 12, 2021 by JoeS
GENX Generator was on time, and with the team of people they had onsite, they had completed everything by 4:00PM. They were very clean and efficient. After everything was installed, they gave me a very thorough walk through of everything. Highly recommended.
Professional install - no surprises
February 5, 2021 by Anika
Courteous staff; answered all my questions and performed the install as expected. Patiently reviewed the product once installed to get me comfortable. Seemed to be the most knowledgeable company I interviewed when I was collecting bids.
Great Experience
January 11, 2021 by Susmil
Very pleased with the installation of our Generac Generator. The team was thorough and courteous. They went over the installation plan when they arrived and kept us informed during the process. After the installation they went over everything with us so we would understand the system and how to identify problems.
Very professional work
December 21, 2020 by Lady
They arrive on time with a very friendly crewWe have a100 years old house with a very updated electric panel and they installed a generator in a day, as planned. They were very good at understanding and finding the lines to be connected and were very patient with my family needs at the time of cutting power and internet. I will definitely recommend and will use them for any other electrical issue at home.
excelent
December 17, 2020 by mjb
The crew was quick, clean, efficient and extremely knowledgeable
Great Job.
November 22, 2020 by Chris
I would recommend to use. They were very knowledgeable and nice. No complaints.
Very Impressive Team of Installers
November 17, 2020 by MurrayH
Just had a 22kw Guardian whole house generator installed by Genx. The team was great, they had everything under control and successfully ran new natural gas pipe in the crawlspace over to the outside of the house where the generator was going to sit. At the same time, the master electrician was installing the transfer switch on the outside of the house and running conduit to the generator. Everything came together and worked like a charm the first time. The project manager went over all of the pieces of the project and how to use the generator itself. Now waiting on final approval of the permit and installation of shedders on 2 of my air conditioners. i cannot thank Genx enough for the great service.
the best!
November 3, 2020 by MichaelG
These guys couldn't have made it easier or respected out home more. I would recommend them WITHOUT ANY reservation.
This dealer was awesome
August 27, 2020 by DonB
Everything went well except I still am not got WiFI.
This dealer is great.
August 10, 2020 by Jim
Promptness was good. Service was good. WY-FI use and installation is very unclear and is still not resolved. It will have to be clarified and taken care of, maybe at time when inspector is here. Thank you.
Could not have asked for anything better
March 17, 2020 by Glencoe30
From the time the rep came out to provide a quote to the time the installation was complete we could not have been dealing with a more well-run, functional, trustworthy outfit. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a generator. I feel much better now knowing our house is backed up. Thanks!
Generally did a good job.
March 11, 2020 by Charlie
After the installation was completed we had a problem with getting our gas reconnected. Granted, we have radiant heat and a complicated system but I would have hoped and expected that if they weren't sure of what to do they would have asked for help from an expert, one of our HVAC workers.
They did a great job!
January 18, 2020 by Mikey1963
They were very professional and finished on a timely basis. I would highly recommend them to put in a General generator.
Very positive experience from sales, install and service
November 27, 2019 by Ron
The entire process was great. The sales call explained the process and product. Options were reviewed. Install team was friendly and seemed very professional. They explained how the unit worked after install was completed. The next day I needed a service call. The service tech arrived quickly and resolved the issue although another visit will be needed to complete the service.
Great team
November 17, 2019 by LvilleMom
Our experience with the Generac team was great. They listened to my needs and were patient in helping me make my selections. Thanks for making this purchase and installation easy.
Very professional organization
October 24, 2019 by Ryan
From the time i requested a quote for a back up generator to the time it was installed I was impressed with the people I dealt with.The installation team was excellent!
The installation guys were awesome!
October 10, 2019 by Bb1124
It was a pleasure working with this company. From the office staff to the installation staff. The installation guys explained everything in detail and answered all our questions.
Very experienced but customer service is poor
October 4, 2019 by LakeForestResident
I've done regular maintenance for the backup generator with GENX. The technicians are experienced and provide great service but the office is not very professional and doesn't care about the customer.The day after a storm, my generator wasn't starting. Called and requested a technician, who thankfully arrived within a few hours. It literally took him five (5) minutes to restart the generator. Needless to say the next week I received a bill charging for a full hour of service. I called the office several times but they didn't care about me as a customer. Will definitely call someone else next time.
This dealer is great!
September 19, 2019 by Andrew
They did a terrific job. Very thorough and professional and so far it is working perfectly.
Great and knowledgeable crew on installation.
September 18, 2019 by Ihavepower
Administrative side of the business was a little frustrating- lack of communication, non responsiveness and overall, a really long process. However, the professionals I met during the assessment and installation were definitely the best in the business. 4 star only for the chaotic front desk. 10 stars for the execution!
On North Sore-USE GENX
September 11, 2019 by Tony55
Great team that arrived on time and walked us through every step of the process. My home required two full days of installation but never an inconvenience. The GenX team is highly qualified with Generac generators and a homes electrical system. I am very pleased with the installation and customer service after the visit. House was left as clean as when they arrived. Amy is excellent in the office explaining every step that will take place. This company walks the talk and does exactly what they say they will do. I would not consider anyone else-these are the guys for the job when installing a backup generator on the North Shore of Chicago!
Highly Satisfied
July 23, 2019 by JIM
My generator was installed last week and the people doing the installation were very professional and did an excellent job.
A pleasure to work with!
July 12, 2019 by B
This dealer especially Amy went above and beyond the call! They were truly great to work with. They were on top of everything from start to finish. I highly recommend them.B
Great and professional install
May 21, 2019 by pju
Everything was done to high standard. There were no shortcuts. I would recommend this dealer to anyone. Great job.
Great experience from start to finish
May 17, 2019 by Jake925
From initial meeting with the salesman to completion of the project, everything went smoothly and as promised. Salesman was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and offered several options. Once the job was scheduled, the crew arrived on time and went about their work in a very professional and efficient manner; completing the installation in 1 day and leaving everything as clean as it was when they arrived. Couldn't be more pleased.
Professional and ...
May 2, 2019 by JohnA
This team was very good when working with my elderly parents. Sometimes that is a challenge with other service providers or installers. They made my 80+ year old mother comfortable and in charge of the process.
This dealer is SUPERB.
April 18, 2019 by Souch
Every one I have dealt with at this dealership has been the best. I have never had a better experience.
A great dealership because of their knowledge of their products and a superior installation team.
March 7, 2019 by UnkGeo
I couldn't be happier with our dealer both from a sales standpoint and installation. The salesman was friendly but exacting in his assessment of our needs and how the job would be accomplished. The installation team was professional, efficient, friendly, courteous, and very respectful of our home and its possessions.
excellent service
March 1, 2019 by bob
good communications from this dealer...when crew would show up...what they would do...when inspection would occur
Did a great job from first call to installation.
February 13, 2019 by GK
This is the 2nd generator I have purchased from GenX and they have always been great to work with. It\u2019s why I didn\u2019t call anyone else when I was adding a generator to my new home.
Excellent & Professional
January 15, 2019 by DS
Genx has been a pleasure to deal with from the first day we contacted them all the way through installation. We chose them based on recommendations from several neighbors, all of whom shared the same positive opinions.
They have done every thing as promised which means they are the best
January 5, 2019 by Tom
These people work very hard and are busy from the time they get there until the time they leave and clean up after themselves I would rate them 10 in a high category of 5 being excellent
Awesome job by our dealer
December 28, 2018 by Jeff
The guys were terrific. Very neat and efficient.Explained everything perfectly
Three awesome men
November 4, 2018 by Pim
These guys showed on time. Spent the entire day reconfiguring our basement wiring and piping and successfully installing our new generator. They took the time to explain its operation and apps. Wonderful to work with.
Love the generator.
October 30, 2018 by DW
The technicians were very helpful, answering answering all my questions and explaining all of the units features. Very professional.
Very good
October 15, 2018 by Montero791
I will be use again they are very professional and friendly
Customer focused Company
October 4, 2018 by chuck
Robert and Amy were/are great to work with. They both were attentive and genuinely worked hard to answer our questions and meet our needs. Installers were professional and great communicators making a somewhat complicated process easy to understand. All in all, a professional process from proposal thru installation and follow-up. Would highly recommend GenX. Chuck and Kim Cousineau
Dealer
June 22, 2018 by Dan
Very clean and neat under some VERY WET conditions. I'm not sure how they did that however, the results were very much appreciated. Robert Bacci was exceptional to work with. For once someone who TRUELY delivers the promise of great service.
Great dealership
May 9, 2018 by Nina
Robert at Highland Park Electric went out of his way to get us set up. We would highly recommend this dealerhship
Absolute top-notch work
March 24, 2018 by Sparks101
As an electrical engineer, I am extremely critical and demanding when it comes to any type of electrical installation. The GenX crew exceeded my expectations. They showed up exactly on time and actually completed the project a couple hours early. Their work was neat, and professional. Beyond the electrical installation, which was textbook, they took great care to maintain my property. As a necessary part of the installation, there is was some disruption of the landscaping. By the time they left, it was restored to a point that you couldn\u2019t tell that it had ever been disturbed. The only evidence that they had been here was a shiny new generator. Absolute top-notch work that I would recommend to anyone needing a generator.
Easy To Work With
March 23, 2018 by Wayno
Everything was so seamless from my initial meeting through the installation day. Everyone is so professional, really easy to work with, and very accommodating to my schedule. Thank you GENX!
Service is impeccable!
February 13, 2018 by edconter
Costumer service, Installation and response was great!
Great experience ... and glad we also got Mobile Link.
February 5, 2018 by 2018
Robert was great. He was our inital contact and saw the project through to the successful inspection. I'll forget the names of crew that installed, but the lead electrician took the time to explain everything, label the panel, and the rest of the crew were professional, helpful, did thorough job testing and all in all ... a great peace of mind. Back up generator, handling all our electrical needs if needed, and confident the job was done right. John & Sue
Extremely pleased
October 21, 2017 by JZS
From start to finish every contact was timely and professional. My rep spent alot of time helping me decide the best location for the unit without damaging any of my gardens or disturbing me or my neighbors.The rep came with the installers and went over everything with them including all my concerns before he left.While the installers were there they were very careful not to damage any of my plantings.When they left, there was no trace they had been there, they were that careful.The unit has ran flawlessly since they have installed it and the location they chose was perfect.All in all it was a stress free experience and I know from an experience with another company, that is not always the case.I am using their services for a maintenance agreement on my work generator. The company called to let me know the tech was on his way, he arrived on time, performed the service, and left the area as clean as he found it.A really superior company to do business with and a top notch product.
Excellent service and integrity
July 24, 2017 by alanfc
I've relied on GenX for eight years or so and am now on my second Generac unit. The generators have become more reliable over the years, but GenX has been reliable the whole time and I'd recommend them without reservation. They really do care whether my backup power system gives me peace of mind.
Very professional continuing support
June 29, 2017 by Mike
I researched the product and this dealer extensively and took a long time to decide on making a commitment. Ultimately I made the right choice. Our installation was complicated, however, the GenX team did exactly as promised. They got things approved by the village and performed the installation in a professional manner. They promised to support me afterwards and are still helping me solve a defect by the original home builder and their electrical sub. This team is very good and I will highly recommend them.
Great installation experience
April 28, 2017 by CA
After getting several quotes, we went with GenX as they not only were competitive on price but spent a lot of time with us up front, going through the product options and explaining the details of how a generator would work for us.
great sales and service teams.
April 20, 2017 by bobby401
salesman came out quickly to look at situation, which was complicated by 400 amp service. Shoned great understanding and provided quotation quickly.
Excellent Installation, Professional, Highly Recommended!
November 22, 2016 by Stan
My initial contact with the Salesman was excellent. He took the time to explain the requirements to me and was flexible to accommodate some additional items that I required in regards to location and installation.
Precise Work
October 30, 2016 by Philips
I am a perfectionist. The electrical building inspector for our village may have been more impressed that I was. Our job was somewhat of a challenging installation and GenX Generator made it look like a piece of artwork.
Peace of Mind / Cheap Insurance
March 30, 2016 by Chaswell55
Mikus Electric;A pleasure to work with. I feel confident that if I required service they would respond quickly. The price was excellent as well. I bought this 16Kw backup generator solely for peace of mind. I haven\u2019t had my electricity go out in five years. My concern is the weather has been strange the last few years and I wanted to protect my home, cheap insurance.
Worked as promised
March 29, 2016 by Joe
My wife and I are attached to a notoriously poor Com Ed circuit. Ten days after installing our generator we suffered the third power outage of the winter. Within seconds the generator clicked on.
Honest, Trustworthy & Very Friendly Highly Recommend!
January 23, 2016 by Petro
Other dealers in the area tried to upsell us into a larger generator than we needed. Generator Jerry and Cheryl were honest and made the whole process a breeze. The price was right, the install was seamless, they delivered on every promise they made. If I would have known it was going to be this smooth I would have done it years ago! If you're in the market for a generator, it's well worth contacting CG Professionals, no matter how much closer other dealers are to your location!
This dealer is great!
May 19, 2014 by SGN
GenX responded quickly and made the entire process easy. The men who came out were friendly and clearly experts at their job. Our generator has been tested already and works great! They dealt with the Village and even gave me suggestions for how to create a small structure around it so that it would be easy for them to access it for check ups or repairs. Highly recommend them!
Your company is terrific
April 30, 2014 by Randall
From the office to the installation crews. Initial meeting was extremely informative, proposal was crystal clear, instructions for my responsibility's were spot on (all I had to do was contact gas company for new meter-simple), your gas line boring crew was great an caring about landscape and went very smoothly, installation crew for the generator were extremely knowledgeable and efficient, clean up from all left areas great. I have already passed on your information to another neighbor. Thank you again
They are terrific!
October 8, 2012 by Paul329
The installation team was excellent. They were not able to install the generator where the salesman indicated, but worked with us to find a better location and discounted the additional material and labor to complete the installation. They were experienced, professional, polite and cleaned up after the installation. I would recommend GenX to my friends.
Totally professional in all ways.
September 5, 2012 by Rob 6
Gen-X is a totally profesional organization both in installation and scheduled maintainance of home generators. I would rate them as exceptional.
So far, Great...
April 16, 2012 by North Suburb Homeowner
Out of frustration I contacted Generac directly via their web site. Three contractors were just too busy, it seems, to follow through on their commitment to setting an appointment for service.
Too lazy and too expensive!
October 7, 2011 by AlbertS
It took three phone calls to get this company to respond and when they finally did come out their quote was the most expensive and the guy didn't even seem to care he was here. This is why I don't like buying products from companies that have got employees like this. If this attitude is the attitude they all have I'm sure no one appreciates their job.
