I've only had it a few days, so it hasn't been put to the test.... yet. The 9500 running watts and a 50A circuit are plenty to keep the lights, refigerators (yeah we have 2) and even the central air running. Come winter if we lose power we'll be in even better shape. I've never met a portable generator that starts without the choke, till now. The remote start is awesome if I'm not home the wife just has to point the remote out the window if the need arises (obviously I'll have everything hooked up and the battery switch on prior) so in the event of, I don't know, a hurricane (like the one that just passed through this week) she doesn't need to go out in a downpour if I'm not here. I honestly wish it held some more gas, not that 6.6 gallons is small. As long as it runs through the night I'll be happy. I also like the handle, much sturdier than other generators. The large wheels give it enough ground clearance that I can pull it over a curb if neccessary. I'm looking forward to putting some load on it and seeing what it's got...... not that I want the power to go out, we'll find something else ;)

Just bought this last week and charged battery overnight last night and started up this morning. Fob has to be paired to generator to start (unless you want to start manually with pull cord). Pairing process was easy and it started right up. However, the one negative is that you really can't start it remotely as I'd imagined because you have to turn on the gas cutoff to "On" and you have to turn the power switch on, so really no point in having a fob to start it with when you have to go out anyway to do these steps. Also, power cord does not come with it so you will have to purchase one before you can actually use it.

Our area had a tornado 3 weeks ago and we were without any power for 3 days. I told myself at that time, this will not happen again. As soon as power was restored I got my laptop out and ordered this machine. Not really wanting to use it but will be happy to if need arises.

We just bought this in case we have another power loss. It hasn't happened yet but the generator starts great and we are running it every few weeks to keep it from seizing up. Hope we don't get hit again with another hurricane but if we do we are prepared.

I bought this generator because if the wind blows it seems the power goes out where I live. It is big enough that I can run most of my house and the price was pretty good I felt. It has electric start and it automatic choke so you don't have to mess around with it much. It also has a remote start which is kind of nice. I haven't used it a lot but overall I am happy with my purchase.

Easy to unbox, super easy to assemble, and started up right away! Glad it has a larger gas tank and more power. Our electrician was impressed with it, and the remote starter! (Just remember to buy your power cord, we got a 50amp 20ft. cord on Amazon.)

Our generator was delivered a few days ago. We haven't actually had an opportunity to use it yet. We have it ready to go when we need it, but we will have an electrician set us up where we can plug it into our electric panel and have alot of items we can use in our home if the power goes out. Hurricane season on the Texas gulf coast is here. Hopefully we won't have to use it. The generator started up easily with the remote and with the electric start button. The only thing that I can say that was negative is that the bottle of oil we were provided to add was a little short on the dipstick. It showed at the very bottom of cross hatch on dipstick. Maybe to prevent overfilling. We purchased a bottle of the correct oil and will add just a little more. I like that it will automatically shut off for carbon monoxide detection. Seems like it will be a great generator for us and keep us comfortable when power outages arise!

Purchase 2 1/2 months ago. Hooked it up to my house 3 times for test runs and it worked very well. Handles all household necessities and can run just about everything. Transitioning to generator power was very smooth and almost unnoticeable. Two weeks ago someone crashed into a power pole and the power was off for approximately 4 hours while it was being repaired. WGen9500c to the rescue - kept everything running till the repairs were complete. Very glad to have this. Good fuel consumption also, after about 5 hours of use there is still half a tank.

I bought the generator about 3 weeks ago to replace a 6000 Watt generator. Having the extra power will enable me to use some of my 240 Volt appliances during prolonged outages. The ability to remote start and connect the smart switch at a future date are a plus.

Nicely packaged. Had to get the jets straight from Westinghouse for my 6000 foot elevation, as nobody else had them. They were cheap, included several different jets and arrived before the generator. There were no instructions and of course a spring thingy popped out from somewhere. I was able to figure out that it kind of laid in there loosely. It is fairly loud, but I figure the neighbors can plug in if an outage gets long.
