First Generator and it's nice

Finally made the decision to buy one. Nice machine with easy set up....just read the directions! Saw a couple reviews that didn't plug the battery cable together or turn the gas on. Easy set up and started right up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great generator!

Just bought the WGEN9500DF, as it was from a very reliable brand, and had the features that I was looking for. It’s large enough to power our well pump, boiler, two refrigerators, a chest freezer, and two bedrooms with windows a/c’s. It has an electric start, but the pull start was not hard at all! The instructions to put on the wheels and convert it to a floating neutral were very easy. We have it connected to a transfer station, tested it, and it works great. We’re ready for the next storm!

Looking forward to using this as a home backup generator when the power goes out. Glad it's the dual fuel model. Gives you options when needing gas and/or propane.

Just what I was looking for

We have been wanting a portable generator to power our home in case of an electrical power failure. We live in the Houston area and hurricanes and other storms can create problems for our electrical service. This 9500 watt generator is exactly what we needed. We have a water well and an aerobic septic system, so when the power is out we really can't stay for long. Now with this new portable generator, we have the electrical supply we need.
We had an electrician help us set it up to connect to our electric supply panel and we ran a test on it yesterday. It worked beautifully! The generator started right up with a push of a button and supplied enough power to run everything we need. Hopefully, we will never suffer a significant power outage, but now there is peace of mind knowing that we have a dependable back up source of power.

Reassurance
on September 20, 2020

from Swisher IA
The derecho hit on 8/10/20 destroying so much of the power grid in Eastern Iowa. My daughter has this model and ordered one immediatedly for us. Delivery was dellayed and did not occur until a few days after power was restored. However, we plan to install a transfer switch before winter because of ice storms that disrupt power. We borrowed a small generator for a few days but this one will provide three times the power. Even without the transfer switch there are four regular plugins so more options to run more than just the freezer and refrigerator. It is an impressive machine. Assembly was easy and instructions for the novice were very clear and detailed. We have immediate reassurance should a storm hit again that we have a generator and two cans of gas to keep the important applicances running and potentially more after the transfer switch is installed.

Power Plus
on September 20, 2020

Had electrician install a power bypass to the house panel, then powered up the WGen 9500 using both gasoline and propane. Powerful enough to run a large house with 2 refrigerators plus AC. Exactly what is called for with our rolling blackouts in California during the summer or when power crashes during winter months.
