Good generator for family!

I bought it a month ago and it's already been part of our family. We have power issues in the area and the generator serves well for the purpose. The best feature I like is the remote started with the keyfobe. Works well and will recomend others who look for a portable generator!

GREAT GENERATOR

This is my second WGen9500, first one is still running like a champ and is used everyday. I've had it for over 3 years and a few problems have arised, but calling customer service is all you have to do, they take care of the rest and you get any parts needed, hassle free!!

1st generator owned

After reading the reviews and wanting a bigger generator to operate things during power outages the WGen9500 seemed perfected. Shipping was super quick, instructions were easy to read and follow. Will be firing it up and putting it to the test this weekend. I will come back in a month or two and add to my review.

Will Power Everything You Need

I bought this generator a week ago and exceeded my expectations. It took about 10 minutes to get set up. I hit the start button and the generator started right away. I tested the power of the generator with lights, air compressor, table saws, etc and did not miss a beat. The remote start and transfer switch ready are very nice features. I would by it again if I needed another generator.

Fantastic House Generator

I bought the 9500c generator a couple months ago. It is very simple to assemble, they provided the oil, funnel and tools to get it started. The push button start works great. My wife used the remote start key fob inside and outside house. This feature is a mobility saver since my wife is disabled. She has the freedom to start and stop the generator if she leaves the house. The generator is very quiet. A couple weeks after I received it, I lost power for 3 days, powered the whole house. It is a must have. I would definitely recommend!!!

Outstanding Quality

This model generator exemplifies excellent craftmanship, it will power everything in my house including the AC! It purrs quietly compared to most other brands and the remote key fob is a great feature! The 3 year warranty beats the 3 month or 1 year warranty other brands offer. Highly recommended.

Easy to use with lots of features

Getting the generator out of the box was super easy. The instructions were easy to follow. Directions for maintenance are thorough, and everything is easily accessible. Lots of great features. I was very exited about the tires that can't go flat. running the generator charges the battery for remote and push button start. There is also the option of a plug in charger.

What a beast!!

Purchased the first of September and it arrived 4 days later. This generator is well made and it started up with no hesitation! Although we currently don’t have an outage, It gives me peace of mind that this thing will do a fine job on our next outage!

Easy set-up. Powered up and test with no issues.

I purchased this in May 2021 for a home unit to power appliances, internet (I wok from home) etc. when we lose power. Had to wait awhile but this is the unit I wanted. The set-up was easy. Powered up and tested fine. Haven't had to actually use it but should be fine when I do.

Love all of the power voltage options

I purchased this as a portable backup generator for our home. Assembly was very easy and straight forward. I filled with the supplied oil, connected the supplied battery, put gasoline in the fuel tank, opened the fuel cock valve, put the choke into choke mode, hit the start button and the engine started up very quickly. The choke automatically goes into run mode. Hooked the generator to some electrical tools and everything ran flawlessly. Very happy with this generator and my purchase!
