Set up was a breeze. I have not yet hooked up the propane yet waiting for my first power outage to give it a real work out, but started up without a problem out of the box. I need to get the propane hooked up.
Purchasing my first portable generator was a challenging task. After much research, I decided on the WGen9500DFc duel fuel model. Great features along with a physical size & price I could handle. The duel fuel option gives me versatility to keep things running during hurricane season here in Florida.
I bought this generator for the 50 amp hookup and ability to use propane, and was pleasantly surprised that it came with electric start and a battery already included, as well as the wheel kit, and a remote start! I lose power a lot out here in the country and this is going to make it a lot easier to switch over, and run longer on propane instead of running to the gas station every 10 hours.
I purchased this gwen9500DF and couldn’t be more pleased with this unit. I used it to power my residence with heavy duty cord and plugged directly into fuse panel. Also used it on job sites No problem at all so far.
The Generator was easy to setup, test, and operate. All operational tools worked fine: hand remote switch, St transfer switch, manual start button, & pull start. All features test good and worked perfectly. Very happy with this unit thus far.
Got this generator home, set it up and started the engine. Last night the power failed here, and ran a cord into the house to run small things (internet/phone, tv, lamps. Nothing worked, no power. All the breakers were tripped and wouldn't reset.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
