Love this generator!

Love the remote start, auto choke and how quiet it is compared to our old generator. Meets our needs and exceeds our expectations!

Great Features! Bought for whole-home switchover

Excited to put it to use during our frequent outages during strong weather here in Maine. Upgrading from a small 3250watt unit to this WGEN9500 & we know it will do the trick! Remote Start I could not be more excited for!

Overall Great Generator

I bought this a month ago and it was easy to set up and get running. Powers sump pump, heating, well pump, 2 refrigerators, and a freezer without issue. Researched for months on which one to buy and besides price, this had a great hour per gallon rating than most, various plugs that can be used, and amount of power for all my essentials. I have an electrician coming to set u a new breaker box and plug to go directly to the generator.

Great Generator for Emergencies

We purchased this generator because we live pretty far out in the country and get occassional severe weather that knocks out our power. The set up was absolutely simple and took all of 10 minutes. Started right up with push button start, manual pull cord and remote start.

WGen9500

This electric start is just great. Put in the gas and oil hooked the battery connection and it fired right up. Key fob will probably be nice when it's setting outside and it's cold out. We're all electric and this should be enough generator to run all the essentials.

Great generator

I bought this generator after seeing other good reviews and I'm glad I did. With a little assembly and charging of the battery, it started up with no problem. We had a wind storm that knocked out our power, so we hooked up our cords and the remote started up great. It has plenty of power to run everything we needed. Not too noisy either.

Well built and sturdy

I bought this generator after this past month's ice storm. It came with detailed instructions and seems to be very well built. I've not had to use it yet, but so far I am pleased with this purchase. I may update my review after the initial test run. I plan to connect it to our house via transfer switch.

Excellent value for the money

Bought this a month ago when we had a local severe storm, Our electric stayed on but our daughters was off for four days. After 10 hours off we had to scramble the entire family to find enough space for her freezer and fridge contents. Because of corona virus everyone was well stocked with their own goods to avoid frequent trips to grocery store. It took six households refrigeration space to accommodate her needs and we still lost some of the cheaper condiments etc. Done right, this unit will run my entire house and the fact that it is portable will allow me to lend it out if above described circumstances happen again.
