I just received this generator yesterday and put the wheels on, added the oil that came with it and ran it on propane. It runs really good and is more quiet than I thought it would be. I love the option of being able to use propane to run it. The remote start is a cool option too. Also, the handle that folds out is awesome, it really makes it a breeze to move it around on the wheels it comes with. I'm happy I settled on the Wgen3600DF generator, it's a really nice unit.

Perfect, compact model for home backup during inevitable spring thunderstorms and power loss. Love the dual fuel option. Super easy to set up out of the box. I filled it with oil and gas and pressed the button and it fired right up! Quiet operation.

Start up was easy and ran smooth from the first start. The handle and back wheels make the generator easy to move. We have only used it once but all went well. Ran for 5 hours without any hesitation or stopping. Could hardly hear it inside the house.

Moved to north coast Massachusetts. Big nor'easter took out power for a couple days. It was a "Heads Up" to be prepared. Being able to run boiler & pumps of our heating system is essential if this happens in winter. Studied needs of boiler/pumps & refrigerator, ie. the essentials. 3.5kW is more than enough. Looked over makes/models, availability and price. For back up power, there is no certainty if/when it will be needed, so this is not a go-overboard investment. Just survival and home protection. What I liked about WGen3600DF: The remote could be real handy, particularly if I put the generator by the shed way out back. Dual fuel a must: I will prefer propane over gas- much less to think about in readiness, maintenance & storage if I go with propane. What concerned me: The manual is not very straight forward compared to other brands. Some of the maintenance gets into "are you a professional mechanic?" (no). Also the detail steps to start and stop are hands-on, yet the convenient FOB clearly is not. Is that a problem? Oil filling had to be done carefully, and I found out it gobbles up about a full quart. Hands on: I ran it up first time today. It worked well. The FOB was pre-paired and operated the generator easily from 40 yards. The generator won my confidence it is ready to step in when we need it. Lucky timing... Electrician is coming this week to overhaul house electrical panel. Good opportunity to wire in a couple extension cord style transfer switches for furnace & refrigerator circuits. When time comes I need this, I don't want to sort thru the manual. So I made a one-page cheat sheet covering Anticipating Use, Start up, Intermittent start & stop (by FOB), Formal shut down. Tie wrapped that to the generator.

I received this generator last week and it was very easy to set up and get running. It came with all necessary tools to get going, and even oil to fill it up. The main reason I purchased this was for a travel trailer. This was an affordable unit with the remote start feature, that is also dual fuel.

I have had the Westinghouse 2200 inverter gen for a while but need more power for a well pump. this system seems well built and should handle what I need it for. the electric and remote start work fine. Its new so I cant comment on reliability yet. The CO sensor works fine. actually a little too fine. it shut off sitting the the open doorway of a shed.. it is a little louder than I hoped it would be.

Did a bunch of research and landed on this model. Ordered from big box and arrived quickly. Good packaging and everything was included. The instructions are lacking but you can overcome them with some common sense. Take a few minutes to review them as they will help some with familiarity of the generator.

I am a first time Generator owner and this unit was so simple to set up and it started on the first try. Would highly recommend this unit! There was one small glitch in set up and that was there were no instructions in the manual or in the Quick Start showing how to do a final connect on the battery. Found the instructions easily on the web site under FQA! Put the cables together and it started weight up!!!

This was a christmas present from my wonderful children. The assembly was easy and all the parts were included. It started on the first try. My son helped with the initial startup but I have had no difficulty accomplishing startup independently since. Rolls easily on dirt terrane.

Really well thought out. Even comes with a funnel to put in the oil. Has a battery charger built in to keep the battery charged while in storage. Push the start button or the remote start and it will cycle on and off until it starts {only took three tries out of the box to pump the gas up} to not over heat the starter. I have others and out of the box this looks to be the best.
