Great features

I purchased to mitigate power outages due to hurricanes. Not had to use yet. Main reasons for purchase were ability to connect to home, multi fuel, and remote start option. It is on wheels and has handle so I can move it into place as needed with enough amperage to run essential services of home.

Great features. I was looking for a big generator

I bought this generator after yet another huge storm blew through our town and left us without power for 4 days. This generator has a lot of bells and numerous great reviews online. I purchased the generator because it is large enough to power my house and keep my food cold and the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I'm tired of living in the dark when storms hit. I believe this machine will give me the peace of mind I'm looking for. I was satisfied with all of the positive I have read about this machine and hope I never need to use it , but glad I have it.

TOP QUALITY, GREAT POWER

I purchased the WGEN 9500 on 10/05/20. I had an electrician install a transfer switch & outlet. We tested the generator and selected circuits to run off the generator. The test was successful....I am ready for the winter season in Massachusetts and probable outages. The generator is of High Quality, started right up. Well built

Solid Generator with Easy Setup

The generator is solid. Only wheels and rubber feet have to be installed. Clip zip tie off and connect battery leads together. Add oil and gas. Program the remote key FOB. It's that easy. Came with a battery trickle charger which is great and I don't have to tie up my larger unit. It is a very heavy unit but the wheels and foldable handle make it easy to move around.

Great generator

I bought this as a back up for the house if we have a power outage.The workmanship is excellent. Easy to assemble. I was hesitant about the weight, but it is pretty easy to roll around. Started right up. So far I have only used it to run small items,and it does that with ease.

Fabulous Features and Perfect Performance

I do not often leave product reviews, however, I felt compelled to in this case. After shopping around, I landed on this generator and was surprised to see its affordability and the features it has. Living in a hurricane prone area, having a generator is necessary and this one is perfect for the application I had in mind. Its wattage will allow me to run so much more than the essentials. It operates flawlessly, the documentation and tools provided with it are high quality and I can start it with the push of a button, so I do not have to brave the southern heat and humidity for too long. It is a solid purchase.

Great features! Easy to operate

I bought this just a few days before hurricane IAN ripped through our area. It performed better than expected. We lost power around shortly before noon on September 28th. The generator started easily on the first try and ran continuously for about 11 hours each day (4) until the power was restored. I shut it off at night and restarted in the morning. It used about 6.5 gallons of gas each day, which I thought was very good. It ran great even during rainy periods. It ran my refrigerator, several lights and tv's without straining. After the hurricane I had a transfer switch and outdoor inlet plug installed so I can run the central AC. I tested the system and it performed flawlessly running the AC, refrigerator, dishwasher, 3 tv's and several lights, microwave and a toaster for over an hour in 90 degree southwest Florida heat.

Fantastic Generator

I purchased this unit, and so glad I did, as this is a great unit, works incredibly well. Easy to assemble, fired up on first try, and it does everything I was expecting it to do. I have had two other friends purchase this unit after seeing mine perform.

Easy to use!

I am a widow in my 60s and appreciate how easy this generator is to use. The initial set up was easy and the generator started right up the first time I used it. The oil was even easy to change. I especially appreciate all this since southern Michigan has frequent power outages.

Excellent Generator.

I just purchased this generator and i cant say enough about how pleased i am with this purchase. It was delivered with everything it was supposed to have. I was able to put the tires and front legs on with ease and in less than an hour. I filled it with oil and gas and hit the start button and it started right up.
