Beautiful Functional Unit, Easy Assembly

I looked at several makes before settling on this one. I wanted the duel fuel option and a 50 amp outlet. That narrowed things down but the 8500 running watts on propane made this a no brainer. The electric and remote start features are icing on the cake. Will be used as hurricane backup and the propane option means no need to store large quantities of gasoline. All things considered this is a great overall bargin.

Overall Great Product

I bought this product because it's a great value and dual fuel. Finding a generator that is capable of running 9500 amps while also being dual fuel is hard to find at a great price. Fortunately this generator does it all! The remote start is also a really cool feature. The noise level from the generator isn't even all that loud for a generator of this size. Would definitely recommend!

Really good so far with a couple flaws
on September 2, 2020

from Bedford, NY
I bought the 9500df a few weeks ago and it arrived 3 days ago. Everything works well so far and this 9500-watt unit is just 3-4 inches longer and 2 or so inches wider than the 5500-watt Generac it’s replacing. This is not a super-quiet generator but it’s not bad and it’s no more or less loud than the smaller one it’s replacing, which is a pleasant surprise.
A couple of issues so far
1) this generator is supposed to have an auto-choke feature but that doesn’t seem to work - it will not do a cold electric start unless you engage the choke manually. Not a big pain, but it limits the utility of the starting key fob, which will only work if you engage the choke manually OR if the engine is already warm.
2) the 50-amp receptacle is right over the wheel, and all 50-amp cords have a 90-degree connector and a THICK cable, which wants to go right where the wheel is. You can angle the connector in, but it’s not very secure and exposes the metal of the plug, which is dangerous. If you can find a 50a plug extender to give it another inch, that is highly recommended.

Loving my new generator! WGen9500DF
on September 2, 2020

from New York
Awesome generator! Starts right up every time, with either the pull cord, powered switch, or remote control. I love the versatility of the dual fuel, either LPD or gasoline. Unit is plenty for my purposes and is not as loud as I thought it would be. Great buy!
I would recommend this to a friend!
