Great Overall Generator

The generator came delivered with very little work to assemble the battery cable and wheels, then add the engine oil before filling with gas and firing right up. This has plenty of power for our transfer switch to power our home when the power goes out. The electric start with auto-choke and key fob start are just an added bonus!

new machine

I already have a 5000 watt generator, which does only part of my electric requirements for my house.I bought these unit after much research and the recommendation by my electrican. This unit will be hooked up directly to my electrical pannel. My electricty goes out frequently. Unit came shipped to my house on a pallet and was A-1 condition. Assembly of wheels and pads quick and easy. filled will oil gas and started right up. Can't wait to see how it perf0rms next time electricity goes out.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE!!

This generator is wonderful I use it for camping with my horse Trailor it takes care of all you need electric,lights,air conditioning etc. So much easier than hauling two small generators with me. The Remote start is what I like too, if raining just push a button.. Also, if power goes out can run my refrigerator, freezer and fans. Would recommend this product highly.

our first use, the equipment powerfull

I bought the equipment in Junio 2024, in the area we live is an old neighborhood and we lose power often with any storm. We went thru the last Hurricane Helene. Our power generator worked straight for14 hours. We are very satisfied with the performance. I do recommend this product. Thanks

Great power, easy to start

While I haven't used the WGen9500 for very long, the times it has been used has been flawless. The generator starts easily using either the push start or the remote control. Time will tell if the fuel efficiency is as good as advertised, and this was one of the deciding factors in choosing this generator. We live in coastal North Carolina and made this purchase for backup power during hurricanes, so I'm sure it will be tested fully soon.

So far this generator sucks.

So far it’s sucks. The push button start won’t start it and the pull start doesn’t start it. It just just keeps cycling when I hit the push button and the pull start hasn’t work yet. Also it’s brand new there’s nothing reason why it shouldn’t start. I shouldn’t have to adjust anything for it to start right out of the box.

Nice

Purchase less then a week ago set up was simple good instructions, The only issue I had when I added the oil that came with the generator with the dip stick Screwed all the way into the motor The measurement was just at the Low oil mark . I expected the oil level to be somewhere between the high and the low marks on the dip stick

Great Generator for the Cost

I bought this unit as a backup for my entire house, I hadn't used it for an extensive period of time until Hurricane Ian came through knocking out power for several days. This unit powered my house and ran perfectly the entire time. I had neighbors coming by the house to recharge items and provide electricity to my neighbor to keep their refrigerator working.
