Kohler's line of residential and light commercial generators from 14 kW to 150 kW provide superior AC output performance while minimizing acoustic noise. Some competitive models offer reduced noise while in "exercise mode," but are significantly louder while in "emergency mode."

Kohler models feature electronic governors, heavy duty starting batteries, and robust enclosures, while also allowing easy access for serviceability.

Kohler earned the highest score and received a "best buy" rating from a leading consumer research magazine.
