First generator for my house

I was skeptical about using this generator to power critical loads including some sensitive electronics (computer/network hardware) in my house during emergencies because of the high THD, but I think we'll be fine. I set it up today and gave it a test run on just 30A cord power to some of the electronic loads. No problems! I have not had a chance to run the loads from the circuit breaker because I need an electrician to install the hookup, but I feel confident based on the test run and online reviews about not having any problems that this genset will be a winner!

Great Generator

I ordered the generator because we loose power occasionally. Within a week of receiving the generator we lost power for 3 days. Generator worked like a charm the entire time on both propane and gasoline. Definitely recommend this generator! I would 100% buy another if I needed.

Excellent

I bought this ( 9500DF) bad boy March 15th 2021 and received it Friday the 19th four days earlier then expected. Only plan on using this if power goes out to my house. Nothing was damaged, not even a scratch so good job by the freight company. Did have to get more oil then what they ship you because it was about 1/2 quart too low. Setting up the key fob was easy. Attached the cord they gave me to my propane tank and to the generator, flipped the battery switch up and BANG, Started right up on the first try with my key fob. Only planning on using gas as a backup if I run out of propane so I can't tell you how this baby works with gas. I would definitely recommend this unit if your looking for this size.

Checks all the boxes!

The WGen9500DF is exactly what we needed during an extended power outage. Easy to assemble, quick start and super easy to use. This powered our entire house and the best part was that it isn’t too loud at all! I’d recommend this generator 10/10 times and can say it’s been one of the best purchases we’ve made as home owners.

What we needed

So we bought this to replace our Champion since we needed something a little bigger and able to run on propane. Was hoping to not need it any time soon--but a week after we got it and I got it setup we lost power. It handled our needs quite well but I still have some things to iron out regarding the propane and an icing issue (nothing to do with the generator itself). Even though it stalled after about 6 hours of running I am still very happy with the purchase..

WGen 9500DF Generator

I bought this to be prepared for hurricane season in Eastern NC. My house is wired ready for a generator and I like the dual fuel option. It's solidly built yet portable enough to easily move. The instructions for assembly and running were simple. It took me less than thirty minutes to be up and running. For its size, it's reasonably quiet. I love the electric start, so if I'm not at home when the power goes out, my wife can easily fire it up.

WGen9500DF

Purchased the generator for emergency home use when power is lost. The generator was well packed/protected and easy to assemble. The operating instructions are clear and simple. It even comes with a remote key fob just like my car. In the event of a power outage, I am ready.

Just what we needed

We bought this after an ice storm took out our power for three days and we borrowed a generator. This generator is exactly what we need to power the most crucial items in our home. We have tested it, but looking forward to a real test the next time we lose power.

Works as expected

Only owned it for a couple of days, with an average of 12 hrs into it and it has worked with no issues. I used it to connect my welding machine to weld some rails and it never even glitched. The automatic FOB is an added plus, very happy with my purchase.

Generator

This genereator is not very loud. It is about as loud as a riding lawn mower. I like having the option between propane, and gas. The remote start is a nice feature as well. I like that this generator has a back up pull start if the elcetric start would for some reason would fail. This generator has a trickle charger for the battery so the battery is always charged and ready to go when the power goes out for the electric start. It works well, and is able to power my entire home. It was definitely worth the investment.
