All the hook ups I need and more.

Just got this, quick delivery easy set up , perfect first start and power, would most likely rate it higher after I get my house ready for hook up and trying it out more. Can't wait for my panel box interlock kit and power inlet box to check it out on the whole house.

Bonus Gift

I am leaving a review of this product because they offer a bonus gift of a generator cover for the review. However, the Generator is really nice, has great quality, and was easy to assemble with 2 people. You basically need to put the wheels on it. It has a remote start option also and many outlets. I am very happy with it at this time.

Easy to use

Attached the wheels and feet, filled the generator with oil and gas and it started right up on first try. Glad the tools, proper oil and amount came with it. I really like the electric start with the remote which makes it easy for anyone to use. No hurting your shoulder pulling a rope to start.

Great so far. Easy setup

Just purchased a few weeks ago, but it runs like a champ so far. It started up right away on 1st try with electric start. Instructions were clear and setup was easy. Wish we would have had it earlier this year to avoid flooding in basement after losing power for a few days and the sump pump battery backups not working

Little Mighty Power House

This generator is an absolute beast! We use it to power our RV, and it hasn’t let us down once. It easily runs the air conditioning, two hot plates, all the lights, and ceiling fan without a hiccup. Despite its size, it delivers big-time performance. One of the most impressive features is the fuel efficiency. On a full tank of gas, we get around 11 hours of continuous use. Thee only downside is that it’s loud, which is expected for any traditional generator. It's easy to start, and feels really solid and well-built. Definitely a great investment for anyone needing reliable portable power. Highly recommend it!

Easy Setup

Shipping was quick and arrived in good shape. Assembly was minimal and easy, just pin on the 2 wheels and 4 bolts for the feet. Added oil and fuel. Started quicker than expected, thought it might take a little bit to get the fuel into the carb, but fired right off. Seems to work with a small load, have not had a chance to load it up yet.

can supply enough power for my entire house

The only improvement would be to make on 4 wheels Its pretty heavy and a little awkward dragging it any distance.I have about a 2200 sq ft house ,pump my water,pump-up septic ,electric hot water heater.It handles the whole house with a little strain sometimes.You just have to be a little mindful not to use heavy load items at the same time.Perfect for the price!

Great Generator for the price!!

We bought this generator after a storm knocked out our power for two days. We needed something with a lot of power for a low cost. This generator is well built and can run all the essential things we need while the power is out. One thing I especially like is that it has a pull cord to start it in case the battery is dead.

Easy to Setup

Very happy with the way the 9500 set up. Owners manual was explicit and easy to follow. Fired up first try after quick charge to unit by equipped charger. Tested output to transfer switch. Performed as anticipated. Good value for homeowner. Price is right.

Lots of Power

Pros: Easily Powers our whole house (accept for HVAC system) well pump, water heater, 3 refrigerators, lights, tv....etc. ; reasonably priced; electric start; many recepticle options. Cons: loud (but it never claims to be a Quiet Generator) ; the 50 amp recepticle is positioned directly over the tire. Most HUGE 50A cords that plug in at a 90° angle will not plug in without removing the tire. (See pictures) Overall, it is exactly as advertised and we are happy with it.
