After extensive research and reading many reviews about the WGen9500DF, I decided to purchase the unit and I'm happy that I did. The unit was delivered on time and within the selected time frame. The truck deliver service dropped off the unit at the entry to my garage which allowed me to finish the assembly (wheels and rubber feet) before moving it into its home in my garage. The next day, after I added the included oil (via the included funnel), added fresh gasoline, and attached the battery (already fully charged), the engine started after a few automatic retries that were initiated via one press of the push button start system which also set the auto-choke mechanism on the carb to allow for a cold start. Thereafter, once the engine was warm, it started right away. The unit is actually much quieter than expected based on older units I have used in the past. Although, the unit is on the heavy side, it is actually smaller than most units of this power rating. The outlets on the generator allow for it to be used for various configurations adding to its versatility. My next step is to add a transfer switch to my home and connect to the generator via an external power inlet box.
As compared to many other generators on the market this one came with the battery already hooked up, and all you needed to do was hook up the quick connect. It’s really heavy, but once you get the wheels installed it’s easy to move around. Overall super easy set up for one person to handle.
In terms of power...this thing has run my sump pump, two refrigerators and various other electrical appliances at the same time with ease. Overall a solid unit.
I bought this generator to be able to power pretty much my whole house. I tested it this past weekend and it does everything I needed. Also, its great that it's dual fuel/
