WGen Generator

I purchased the generator a year ago and finally had to use it for power outage due to hurricane Milton. My first time ever using a generator and it was amazingly easy and safe. Great investment. Uses both gas and propane which was very convenient.

Easy instructions

I just received this generator two days ago. The instructions to install was very easy. All equipment was supplied. I have not been able to use it yet. The box was a little tattered at the bottom but was secured by the zip line. The price was good. I’m excited about having it since I live in Florida.

Great Product

I have been reviewing generators for awhile and after reading reviews, price and features, I purchased this generator. I purchased this product seven days ago and finally was able to unbox today. I had no damage to the product when unpackaged. All I had to do was put on the wheels, two front rubber supports that it sits on and add oil. I attached it to propane, choked it and after three pulls it started right up. I checked the electricity output and the output was there. I hope I don't ever need it for backup power but I will sure have it if needed. The generator was actually quieter than I had thought it might be when running. Even my wife said that it was quieter than she had anticipated.

Worked the first time

I bought this item two years ago to have on hand. I used it one time and it worked great. I needed to use it again durning our last snow storm (Jan 2023). It worked for an hour, I heard a "pop" and I haven't been able to get it to work again. I'm really hoping it's a simple fix. As it is still under warrenty, I will file for that. I will update this review after that.

IN THE HARD TIME THIS GENERATOR DID NOT FAIL US

We got this Generator because of the storm that happened this thursday may 16 2024 in Houston. The first day was ok it was not that hot but the next day it was 90 something degrees Fahrenheit without electricity no air we had to run the generator almost 24 hours we got the connection for 240v and we could use the refrigerator, a window air conditioner tv and some more and it did not heat up ,nothing...i really recommended this brand and this generator..

Great product - been working like a champ

Good machine and I'm happy with how it performs. Keeps two fans and a 5000k window unit running. Only used propane and was happy with the results. One issue that is somewhat irritating is cleaning the spark arrestor. The grill is too tight for a screwdriver to fit in the slot easily.

Dependable, User Friendly

We bought this and have been extremely happy. We have never worked or owned a generator before this...it was easy to assemble directly out of the box and had clear, user friendly guide for start up and storage. It started right up and have not had any issue. The ability to go between gas and propane is a plus....literally just a flip of the switch. No regrets!

Works Great but have one concern

The Generator works great the only problem is the pictures show bearings in the wheel mine came with no mearing the wheels wobble back and forth. called support they said it dose not come with bearings even though all the pictures for this model show it with bearings. Even the wheel kit you can buy show the unit with bearings. little thing saying the generator works as described.

Best value, easy to use, comes with everything

I am looking for a portable to power just a few essential items in case there is a power outage so a 4K-5K wattage portable generator works for that purpose. I did my research, and this make and model offers the best value. I like it that it comes complete with wheel kit and propane regulator and tubing/connector. Well packaged. Took it out of box, installed legs and wheels, connected propane tank, and fired it right up. 3 year warranty. Offers L14-30R 120/240V. The oil funnel is a little messy and can use improved design but that's just a small nuisance. Would be nice to include the noise db level, engine oil capacity, etc in the specs. Very happy with my purchase.

What we needed in a pinch

When our power went out we borrowed our neighbor's generator and after using it, decided to buy one of our own! Easy to start and has good options at a good price. I would have liked more regular plugs for extension cords, but for the size of the unit I understand why there were only 2.
