high quality

This is the sports car of generators. Very well made, solid, feels and looks durable. I can't give it 5/5 as it arrived damaged with the top bars being bent, which on reviews seems to be common. That's like getting your new car with a dent in the hood.
But if I had to nit pick: the tires are cheap plastic, given how well this is made I'd expect real tires. I'd see this being an issue only if you move it around a lot, in which case go get some real tires and problem solved. The paint is well done, unfortunately when I lifted it up to check underneath and put on the rubber feet I noticed the bottom bars are all scratched with bare metal exposed (guessing it's slid around the factory while being put together?), so I'll need to repaint it to avoid rust.
But that's it, not much to complain about. For the price and high quality I doubt you'll find better. Would I buy it again, yes. And I'd bet someone out there can tell you what size aftermarket wheels to get at a hardware store
I would recommend this to a friend!

I looked at other generators that were top brands as well and I couldn't find any that had the outstanding features as the wgen9500df..

Preliminary startup was easy, but haven't lost power yet to really put it to use. The 5th star is hanging on how well it does while in action.

I purchased this generator as a home backup unit. Very easy to start, plenty of power to spare after powering my well, boiler, fridge and micro...all the essentials needed for surviving an outage !

Best for the price

I looked long and hard for the features I wanted in a portable I could use for the house. Was very happy to get dual fuel. Disappointed that I could not find one in this size with an inverter, but that seems the case with all models this size. So far I just tested it once with the electrician, and it started right up.

Looks great

Received my generator within a few days of ordering and on time. Easily assembled and started right up. Did a small load test on it and it powered the items. Will add more when I connect it to a heavier load but so far looks like it will do the job.
I would recommend this to a friend!
