Powerful dual fuel generator

I purchased this generator to run my home in the event of a power outage in Illinois. This has already come to serve us in a 3-day power outage from straight-line wind storm. The generator ran practically my whole home. I was able to run my furnace, refrigerator, garage, stove & bedrooms. I run gas stove, water heater, LED lights, etc so it did take up too much wattage. I shut it off at the broker when we are running on the generator & individually run items. I am very happy with this generator so far!

Great power but power line sold separately

I received the WGen9500 on 7/21/22. Unit required very little assembly. The setup, maintenance, and operations instructions were very clear. I will need to procure both the 30Amp and 50Amp power lines separately. Would have been nice to have those included at the price paid for the generator. However, the generator is rich with functionality and should there be a grid power loss, I should be well prepared.

Great Product

Bought product last month, this product is very easy to install together straight out of the box. Everything was there and the remote is nice to have multiple options to start product. Product is lighter then the smaller one we had and a lot easier to move around. Had no issues with product and started straight out of the box. Overall very happy with purchase !

Powerful with many features

Very happy with this generator. 10 minutes to assemble, including filling the supplied oil. Well written instructions, along with parts diagram and wiring schematic. Not a big deal, but the supplied oil funnel should have a larger mouth and much larger exit, to prevent spilling.

WGen9500

I just purchased the generator and it was easy to assemble. It started right up with the pull cord. Battery wasn't charged enough to attempt the electric start or fob features. I hooked it up to the transfer switch and it powered all the major appliances and still had more amps to engage our heat pump.

Easy to assemble

Received as a gift. I have had the generator about two weeks and haven't started or used it yet. Easy to assemble but I tipped and supported it to the front (muffler side) to install the wheels and support feet rather than to the side as the instructions implied. Appears to be sturdy and I am anxious to try it. The only drawbacks I can determine at this time are the locations of the oil filler neck and the manual chock which may prove awkward for an older individual.

Very Complete Purchase!

I'm extremely happy with this purchase. Everything you need to get things started. Feeling very secure the next time our power is out or disrupted due to extreme weather. You simply can't beat the tri fuel options and premium features on this unit, not to mention the power this product puts out.

Great price nice

I bought this 9500c / 12500 unit for when a hurricane knocks out power. So far, I added synthetic oil and fuel as specified. Started up on first press of the start button! Let it run for 15 minutes while running basic lights and a power tool. Will be getting a transfer panel soon so I can run freezer/frig & lights in house, stay tuned for a 5th star

Playing wiith the big boys now

A very well thought out and assembled generator. The material is first class (the fuel tank is metal, not plastic), the electrical and engine controls are easy to access and the instructions are very clear (They include a full schematic and parts view). A professional machine in every way.
