Remote And Automatic Start

This unit is amazing, you just push the button, and it will start the auto choke and start automatically. It also has a key fob to start it remotely. It has plenty of power to power my whole home via a transfer switch that I had installed by an electrician.

Excellent features and options

Just bought yesterday and was easy to assemble and test. Unit fired right up on first try. Runs real smooth, and expected a bit noisy, but less noise than the other generator I was looking at to buy. I like the fob working over 200feet away. I'm sure it'll take care of all my electrical needs when emergency power is needed.

Great Features

I have only had the generator a couple of weeks, so I'm haven't needed it on an emergency basis. The generator was easy to assemble and after adding the oil with connecting the battery, the generator start right up. I started and run it with gasoline. I have had a chance to run it on propane as of yet. I have confidence that this will get me through storm and power outage types of emergencies.

Awesome Power When Needed

First off, let me start by saying set up out of box is a breeze. Instructions are very well explained. Love the flexibility of the dual fuel. Can run on stationary at the house on propane. If I need to be mobil with it, I can switch it over to gasoline for power. It definitely has the POWER. Powers an 1800 sq. ft. house without a problem - furnace, two refrigerators and freezers, transfer pump and lights. Keeps you rolling when the power is out. Happy in the country!

Just installed and ran on propane. Works well.

I bought this generator a month ago. Just got wired to my house. Now I have back-up power to 10 key circuits on my house (well, frig, furnace, internet). I bought a 100 lb propane tank to minimize fill ups. Works well and provides the right level of power when these items are running.

So far so good.

Delivery was a snap, as was the installation of the wheels and support brackets. Decided to use propane for initial startup, and it started up and ran just fine. Haven’t powered much yet with it yet, but I’m sure it’ll run what I’ll need it to run.

Very happy so far

Delivery was great. Basically perfect condition other than some minor scuffs (understandable given it traveled across the country and is so large and heavy). What was essential for me is that the manual states its designed to be hooked up to a whole home propane tank - my gas company was unwilling to provide a connection otherwise. Time will tell how it holds up, but with proper maintenance, Im hoping it should last a very long time

Easy start! Quieter than others!

This is a beast of a generator, but capable of powering our whole house. It is quieter than most 6000-8000W generators. It is easy to move around. I have put it through 1 hurricane and 1 ice storm so far with flawless results. Love the remote and push button start!

Runs great

The Wgen 9500df replaced our smaller generator. Purchased in mid December and it arrived on Jan 5. I did a 4.5 hour break in using propane. I had a small heater connected and varied the wattage from 700w to 1400w. The generator did great when it went from low heat to high heat. Sound is what is expected for a larger generator. At about 50 ft it was around 71 dB. We have lots of trees in our backyard so the sound will be muffled before it reaches the neighbors. This unit weighs 215lbs but the built in handles and wheels make easy to move around. I hope we don't need to use the 9500df but in the event we do, our home is ready.

Exceeds all my needs

This generator replaced a smaller one I bought during the ice storm of 2008. I have a sump pump to keep my cellar dry. If my furnace, well pump and sump pump were all running at the same time and I had one too many lights on the generator would trip and I would have to go outside and reset. With this new generator I don't have that worry anymore. Great product!
