The last generator I purchased was always hard to start. Hoping that this continues to be easy to use, purchased this because of the reviews.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a perfect fit for our needs. It is a compact size and fits the power needs for our small cottage. It doesn’t take up much space and stores easily. We can also plug it into our main power connection when needed.

Reliable Powerhouse – A Must-Have for Emergencies
on May 30, 2025

I recently purchased this genarator and couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I unboxed it, the quality and build were evident. The dual fuel capability (gasoline and propane) is a game-changer, offering flexibility and peace of mind during extended power outages or off-grid use.
Setup was straightforward—everything from the instructions to the quick start guide was easy to follow. The electric start worked flawlessly, and the remote start feature is incredibly convenient, especially during stormy weather when you don't want to go outside.
Performance-wise, this generator is a beast. With 9500 running watts and 12500 peak watts, it powers essential appliances with ease, including our refrigerator, lights, sump pump, and even the central AC unit. It runs smoothly and surprisingly quiet for its size, which is a big plus.
Fuel efficiency is impressive. On propane, it ran for hours without needing a refill, and the built-in fuel gauge makes it easy to monitor usage. The control panel is well laid out and user-friendly, with plenty of outlets to cover all our needs.
In short, the WGen9500DFc offers reliability, convenience, and power when you need it most. Whether you're preparing for hurricane season, working on remote job sites, or just want backup power for peace of mind, this generator delivers.
Highly recommended!

The features on this gen set are amazing. I’ve owned many generator’s in my life but this one wby far the best I’ve seen. Very heavy-means great motor and electric system. Ease of use, data center feedback, u could not ask for more. Bought this for our hunting camp to replace an electric start gen set because I am able to start it from inside of the camp. Highly recommend.

We live in a rural area and trees fall all the time when storms come thought. Great back up for water well and other needs. I done did the 5 hour break in period, so it's ready to go.

Purchased due to a major power loose, hurricane Buryl in July 2024. We ran the generator for 20 hours with no load AC voltage @ 121.7, connected refrigerator voltage drop to 121.5 volts. We are in the process of puchasing a one room air conditioner , we have very high humidity where we live, north of Houston . We had power loose on May 25,26 2025 for 11 hours. Started generator connected 2 refrigerators, satellite receiver and tv. The generator ran flawlessly.

Perfect!

I bought this model based on the number of positive reviews. I'm happy to add another!
Super-easy unpacking and set up. After the electrician installed a panel switch, we connected a propane tank and hit the START button on the remote starter. The generator fired up immediately.
There's enough output to power HVAC, two refrigerators, and enough lights and outlets to keep my family comfortable, out of the dark, and carrying on normal life functions in an emergency.
Perfect solution and much less expensive than installed generators that are extremely costly and require annual maintenance.
I would recommend this to a friend!
