Great giant for the price

This generator is excellent in handling power outages compared to more expensive ones that cannot handle what this one does. I ran it today with 2 freezers and a refrigerator hooked into the 30 amp feed. I connected each one per the manual and didn't even hear any surge as they were connected. This tells me the generator is powerful. It also has 4 20 amp connections as well

Quit running after 10 min

I just purchased this generator and did all rechecks and ran unit for about 10 min on propane and was good. Then needed it last night so I hooked it up and it ran power to my items for about 5-8 min and then it died. Tried restarting and it backfired several time and that was it. Would not run. Ended up putting a little gas I had, no more available at night and it finally ran but would not run at all on propane so I was stuck with no power. Call CS and all they will do is send me a new regulator to see if it fixes it but it will take about a week. Wow what a joke and the store I bought it from said they can't help per policy. This company should be able to call the store and have them supply the part as they sell that part but the manufactu...

    Perfect for our campground.

    Picked it up on 7/3. Didn't need it for about two weeks later. Bought it for the 50A receptacle, but it also has the 30A twist lock, four 20A GFI receptacles, two USB ports and a Smart Switch receptacle. It has remote start or push button on the unit. You could pull start it too, but why? 6.6 gallon fuel tank. Ordering a cover for when it's running in inclement weather. Really pleased with our choice. Highly recommend this generator.

    Great Generator - Everything You'll Need

    This generator has it all. 30 AMP & 50 AMP, even a charger for your phone. All the plugs, start button, etc. are all up front, easy access. Starts quickly & has remote start. Runs smooth with no vibration. I'd recommend it to anyone needing a generator. Sam's pricing and shipping was excellent.

    Great features

    I bought the 9500df in November of 2020. I took it out of the box to check for damage and to put the wheels and feet on. I put it in the corner of my garage and it kinda got buried. Didn't even put the oil in it until August 2026. The battery was dead, (no use for almost 6 years)and I had no way to jump it. Had to pull start it. Minimal effort and it started. It ran off and on for 4 days on propane. After After about 21 hours of running the battery charged up and I was able to use the push button start. I am very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend this this generator to anybody!

    Amazing product

    Living in Florida with hurricane season having a generator is a must, and this one does not disappoint. Has all the features one could ask for (dual-fuel, remote start, CO2 detection) and many more. Hope I don't have to use it but if I do, I know we will be in good shape!
