Well build looking great right out of the box

I exchanged the generator I bought as Hurricane back up to get this power house that will be able to run my central AC and still have spare power for other electric consumers. Love all the different outlets and especially the RV plug. I have not started it yet but I am sure it will not disappoint.

Portable generator

First of all this generator was one of the easiest I have put together so far. Directions easy to follow. I ordered this generator to have it for store pickup it was prompt and was there the day that it was suppose to be. Ordered it online easy website to maneuver in all an Awesome experience overall!

Great features and more power.

I purchased this item after much research into generators. It seems like every time we get a storm lately the power goes out. I have a well so that means I lose water along with everything else. I am having a 50amp plug installed and a switch so that I can run my whole house. No more worries about power going out.

Exactly what I need!

Bought this generator about 3 weeks ago based on the great reviews I read online. It was delivered on time and damage free. Easy set up and it started right up after adding the oil. Used my power washer in order to break it in a bit. Very excited to have an electric start vs. pull start. The remote was easy to pair and it works well. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone! The only reason I have not given it 5 stars yet is because I have not experienced a power outage since purchasing this generator.

easy set up, plenty of power for home back up

Bought this as an upgrade, my old generator was only 5000 watts runnning and we needed more to run the house, after doing research and comparing models i decided on the wgen9500, out of the box all i needed to do was put on the wheels and feet which took all of about 8 minutes, add the oil and gas and it cranked on first pull, unit does has a battery start as well. i am very pleased with this product.

Very Versatile Unit

I had been looking at generators for awhile when I came upon this one that met all my needs. Very little assembly required. Well made unit. Only thing I found was my motor required more than the included oil amount to register on the dipstick. Other than that its golden.

SO far so good,

Having completed the five hour break in period (at zero load, 1500w, 3000w, 4000w,4500w and 4650 w) and allowing gen to run at no load (cool down) for 8-10 minutes before turn off each separate day--everything good. On third day let it warm up for 10 minutes and switched over to the 30 amp for my house. It ran the boiler, two refrig's, freezer, numerous lights, two air cleaners and the microwave on full power for 3 minutes (the well pump was not used--it will be a large draw at 3/4 hp.

Good gen. Needs improving.

50 amp plug in is located in bad place,just above rear tire. Since most 50 amp plugs are shaped in L for strian relief for cord it makes pluging in difficult. Also the could have put a dedicated gas drain valve to drain gas for storage. Over all this gen is realy is good. Runs great. easyto use.

new machine

I already have a 5000 watt generator, which does only part of my electric requirements for my house.I bought these unit after much research and the recommendation by my electrican. This unit will be hooked up directly to my electrical pannel. My electricty goes out frequently. Unit came shipped to my house on a pallet and was A-1 condition. Assembly of wheels and pads quick and easy. filled will oil gas and started right up. Can't wait to see how it perf0rms next time electricity goes out.

Solid build

Looked over many generators. This has great reviews (YouTube) for a reason. Would be 5 stars, but Evap canister fell of mount during shipping, and box had oil seepage..not a deal breaker, but box was soggy and falling apart. We shall see 3 year warranty!!
