POWERED MY ENTIRE HOUSE

This is the best generator I have used. I have used it twice this year. The first time was for 3 days strait and the second time was for 2 days straight. The electric start and automatic choke worked perfectly. nothing like pushing a button and having instant power.

worked as advertised

it arrived in good condition. easy to unpack and install the included wheel kit. one person can do this easily. it weighs a lot but is balanced so well that it is really easy to move around.everything you need to start is included. read instructions to make sure you do everything right. started first time and it is noisy , but remember its 9500 watts , but seemed quieter than i expected on one this size. it ran all circuits that we bought it for. so far a great investment.

Great unit ,many options , solid build

I've purchased this unit and I'm very pleased with a lot of the extra features, the transfer switch is big and I love the fact that it has gasoline or ( propane) which I'm personally using with a 40lb tank.... Ease of use.. low oil shut off is another great feature.....!! Love the Electric start...! Extremely well built and sturdy this is a unit that is made to last.... I recommend this unit highly....

Good price and features

After completing the assembly (wheels, feet, ground cable, gas) there were 2 issues. first the fuel gauge does not work, did not budge after filling the tank. Second it started right away on propane but refused to start on gas and didn't until after much troubleshooting then decided to drain the carburetor float, after which it started right away - must have had something remaining from the factory.

50amp controls the whole house

I first purchased the Wgen7500DF and worked like a charm, however, only had 30amp.... kept my eye out for this Wgen9500DF for a couple of months since everywhere was sold out... glad I waited... a few became available, purchased one, and within a week it was delivered right at my doorstep... its a beauty can't wait to turn it on

Great for house back-up

Had my house updated as a back-up to run off a generator and this one does the job. Installed a interlock on my breaker panel and use the 50 Amp connection cord to the outside of my house. Can run basically my entire house now in case I lose power. I like to use propane because of the extended life it can be stored. I would recommend this for anyone looking to backup their house. Nice that its portable and easy to wheel around as well.

Great value generator for the wattage

Finally broke down and got a 50 amp whole house plug installed on my electrical panel and my existing generator could only put out 30amp and not nearly enough wattage. This bad boy can easily power my entire home running our normal stuff, including a 5 ton central a/c unit. Started right up via the electric start the first time and ran smooth. Things to note: Only use the included oil for the first fill as its needed to help break in the engine for the first 5 hours. Also not supposed to run it above 50% load for the first 5 hours too.

Best Generator I have owned

I needed a generator big enough to run my home in an outage. My generators were small, plus 200 ft. of drop cords, it was a lot of work. This generator works perfect. I purchased a 25 ft. power cord and transfer plug. It is stored in a storage shed about 20 ft from my panel. I just plug in and crank. No work at all. Generator is not too loud, and it is outside my home. I love it. All i need now is a cover to keep it clean when not in use.

Love that its Dual Powered!

I bought this a little over a month ago and glad I did! With all this unpredictable weather, it has been nice having this as a back up when the power went out on us one time, with the ability to use either LP or Gas made hooking it up and using it to keep the house warm enough without freezing the pipes was a blessing!!

Great machine

This is a workhorse. The only think lacking was the instructions in the box was from an older model. I had to call support because what it was saying was not matching up with what I saw I front of me. Now in the description online it said the noise produced was like a loud dishwasher. I think it would be more accurate to say, a few loud industrial dishwashers put together. Hahaaa. But this is all small stuff
