I just purchased this generator for my travel trailer. After much research I chose this unit due to features and reviews. The generator arrived on time in undamaged condition. Setup is easy and the generator started right up. I expect years of good service from this unit.

I’m very happy with this purchase. I was looking for a reliable back up generator in case of power outages and this one runs all of the essential elements of my house without an issue. I’ve found that it’s more reliable to use the pull rope instead of the electric push button starter, but that may be because I only use it occasionally as a backup instead of using regularly. As with any machine - read the manual and follow the directions to ensure it operates properly.

I needed a new generator to run 3 sump pumps, a pool pump and well pump in case of an outage (especially in heavy rain conditions), never mind lights or appliances. I have lived in my house for over 25 years and although I have had “infrequent” outages, some have been lengthy (out for several days) and some have come with lots of rain —- 9” in six hours —- I live in Indiana). I had an older, noisy generator that could run 2 power cords (plus a couple more using surge strips) to run the sump pumps in the basement and the pool pump to help drain down the pool in case of another massive downpour. With this generator, I have almost 2x the power I had before, and I will eventually have it switched to the breaker box so I won’t have to string cords down the stairs; and designated circuits will get switched on when the generator is “plugged in”. There should be enough power to run the a/c or furnace if needed. I’m (72 yr F) and not strong enough anymore to pull stubborn start cords easily and the push start is a godsend (it has a remote starter as well). I also opted for just the gas powered, as I don’t use propane for anything else, and didn’t want to hook up to the natural gas line (no outdoor shed). I also like the usb port feature so I can charge my devices (with WiFi unavailable, my phone charge goes down fast), and the carbon monoxide alarm is a good safety feature, along with the gauge to monitor fuel level, run hours, etc. I don’t need to peek into the gas tank with a flash light anymore and guess at how much fuel is left in it. The generator can also automatically adjust the rpm to a lower level so it’s not running at full blast or one run speed when the output needed is small. The only complaints i have are when I was setting it up —- (1). the quick guide has very small close-up pictures instructing how to put on the 2 wheels and 2 foot brackets. The user manual has much larger and simpler pictures, but I didn’t know that until after assembly. (2). it might also be useful to know that the oil reservoir will take @ 2/3 of the quart of oil (included) to fill—- I probably checked the level 10 times because I was mindful not to overfill. (3) couldn’t find the key fob for some time that was clipped to part of the engine under the top of the machine —— maybe a note with the battery or parts bag (or set-up guide) saying where to find it would be helpful. Ironically, I had just had the generator delivered 1 1/2 days before a storm and power outage and hadn’t set it up yet, so I had to put it together in semi-darkness in the garage and the power came back on shortly, about the same time as I was filling the oil reservoir. Otherwise, easy-peasy set-up, and a lovely, quiet machine that stays put and doesn’t dance around. I am actually looking forward to my next power outage.

I bought this based on the numerous 5 Star Reviews and was not disappointed. The generator started up on the second try and performed as expected. There was one small dent on one of the braces and the cap on the quart container of oil was not tight and leaked.

This is the first generator I’ve owned. I’m a full time maintenance electrician and run generators frequently. What I like most about this little generator (for my home) is the digital panel meter. I’ve yet run it, but the ability to see the hertz, voltage, and load is a huge plus. No need to get a meter out and double check it.

I have been debating on purchasing a generator and I finally decided to purchase one. After researching several different generators, I chose this one due to great reviews and a great price. Assembly is easy and very easy to start. I did a test run with it and it seems to be perfect for me.

Great generator. Easy to use. Quiet. Fired right up! Minor damage from shipment. One of the wheel axle "brackets" was bent so the axle would not go through. I was able to bend it back and slide the axle through. In addition, one of the bars above the gas tank is bent. It is not touching the gas tank, but still bent. Damage does not cause any issues and is not worth the hassle of returning for a replacement.

I bough this because of our power being cut off for hours to days at a time. I just received it this morning before 7 am. Very promp and friendly service. This one should run my home during outages. I have neighbors that have bought the same generator. I love the automatic start.

The WGen9500 is easy to set up and easy to use. I purchased this for the rolling power outages in California. When I am not at home my wife can start the generator from a push button key fob. This unit provides excellent power and flexibility and at a very good price. A+.

Good features. What's not to like - four 120v (20 amp) outlets, one 120/240v (30 amp) outlet, and the best feature is one 240v (50 amp) outlet. I am going to be ready the next time my power goes out. with a push button and remote start key fob my wife can even start it.
