Great Features

I received the generator yesterday. It was easy to set up and get running. I was pleased that included with the generator was a tool kit containing a wrench and a spark plug tool. It was also nice that oil and a funnel were included. I tested the generator using propane and it started right up and ran smoothly and was actually a bit less noisy than I expected. Overall a good buy.

Fantastic for peace of mind

I didn't have to use this for a few months. When I did, I was so thrilled. My house lost power and it started right up and kept running for hours before needing refueling. It powered all of the circuits we needed to keep us warm and safe until power was restored a few days later. The remote start feature is cool and the generator itself gives you the option of using it for a 220V circuit or 120V.

NICE!!

I live in area where the power goes out frequently. A generator has been on my radar for a long time. The time came to start looking for a unit. The 9500DF had all the features I was interested in and had great reviews. I am very happy with my purchase!!

Built Solid!!

The first thing I noticed about the WGen9500DF was how solid its built, heavy duty. I’m in the industrial mechanical world and this generator has heavy duty hardware, components, and is built to last. Even the product manual tells me they know what they are doing, they mention ethanol issues and show you how to drain the gas/lines to avoid issues. Clear break in instructions and maintenance periods with explanations for each. Designed for easy maintenance. This all is what impresses me most because nowadays most products are not like that, they are built cheap and they don’t care to tell you how to get the longest life from the product. Next thing most are probably concerned with is noise...its not unusually louder then any other gens, I’ve owned others that are definitely louder. Its has a good solid purr and sounds like a healthy engine. I set it about 50’ from my house and inside with the TV on it sounded like my neighbors mowing, not bad. I only run NON ETHANOL gas in my small engines, that and the way this gen is built i feel it will last me a lifetime of use. Cranks right up and makes power, only other features I care about other than above. Thank you!

Exceeded my expectations

I purchased this after a prolonged power outage in Connecticut. Two days after the electrician wired a connection we lost power again. I had the generator running on gasoline powering nearly the entire house in 10 minutes. It kept us going without a hitch. It's easy to start and reliable. What a comfort to have for emergencies!

Ease of use

I bought the WGen9500DFc due to Hurricane Beryl knocking out our power. I've owned different brand generators in the past, but never one that had a remote key fob. Not having to wear myself out by pulling on a cord to crank an engine has made all the difference in the world. After reading ask of the other reviews, and listening to people that have owned this same brand, I saw the value in purchasing such a great product.

Great Power and great value!

We are currently in our break in period and this thing runs AMAZING! Propane and Gas dual fuel option is a must. Living in SW Florida, a reliable generator is a must have for every household. We live the portability and great power packed into a small frame.

Great unit- easy to use

Bought this unit at the beginning of January during the floods and power outages in California. Easy to install and use. The remote start works well and is easy for my 92 year old mother to use when the power goes out. The dual fuel system allowed us to hook up directly to the 450 gal.house propane tank

Plenty of power, dependable, highly recommend !!!

I purchased the W Gen 9500 DF to run my off grid storage building / work shop, with living space. It has enough power to run it all, along with the A/C and welder at the same time. The remote start and stop was a must have, not having to go out in the dark and shut down the unit each night is very convenient and then to restart in the morning with a push of a button. By running the generator off a home size propane tank (125 gal ) I have endless fuel, not having to change out 20 lbs cylinders is great. If your looking for a well built, dependable generator you won't be disappointed with this unit.
