Nice Generator

I purchased this unit as a portable backup generator for my house. Just finished installing it. Nice unit. Minor quality issue however. I was unable to fully attach the feet to the unit due to a misalignment of the nut welded onto the frame. Not a major issue, just annoying. It fired up right away. I especially like the remote start feature. Can't say that I'm looking forward to using it because that means we have a power outage. Looking forward to using it for remote outdoor events.

Well designed

I recently purchased this generator to replace my older outdated one, and right from the directions, through the set up and into the initial start up everything went smoothly. the unit runs like a charm, fairly quiet compared to my last one. I especially like the control panel which covers everything that the unit does, with read out and warning lights. Looking forward to years of service with this unit.

FIRST GEN EVER BOUGHT

After having freezer and refrigerator items go bad during power outages and not knowing how long power would be out I decided to invest in this generator. It is very easy to operate, not too loud, and will soon be hooking it up to power my house. It is very well made and the foldout handle is very handy for rolling it around.

Great Generator

I liked the easy assembly and added parts such as tools and oil funnel. Also, like quick set up and starting with propane. Just be careful with Owner's Manual included in box. Download current manual from their website there have been a few key changes regarding oil level checks.

Solid construction

Generator was delivered today. Unboxed. Installed tires and feet. Added gas and oil. Followed start up instructions but couldn’t get it to start. Not getting gas to the carb. Come to find out the fuel system was air locked. Tinkered with fuel line and filter till gas was present. Cranked it over and it started right up. Ran smooth. Little noisy but not bad at all for this monster. Can’t wait to see how much of my house we can run with this.

So far so good!

Purchased this a week ago for our mobile woodshop. Works great. Haven't had much luck with the remote start yet. It works, but I usually have to hit the manual choke for it to start so trying to start remotely doesn't do much for me, but having a remote shutoff is nice!

great generator

Just purchased this generator to use for emergency backup power in our home. After experiencing snowmageddon this past February, we decided it was best to get a little energy insurance for any future issues. The features and power of this generator are awesome! All metal gas tank, up to 20, 30 and 50 amp outlets. Remote start. And the option to add the ST automatic transfer switch make this an incredible option. So far very pleased.

Fired Right Up!

This generator is the most power for the money. It started right up and is very easy to use. I recommend laminating the quick start guide so that anyone can use it. And the remote start key fob is pretty cool. I hope I never have to use it but I am sure I can count on it when needed.

Solid Equipment

Just received this model yesterday (Wgen9500DFc) and read through the manual, start up procedures, etc. Followed through today with assembly and first start up with propane. Everything went so smooth. Very solid, no vibrations. Very impressed and satisfied with this purchase.
