Power to spare.

Ran my RV day and night no issues. Like the propane option, I prefer to carry a tank instead of gas cans.
Guy next to me plugged in and it made no difference in fuel use.

Top of the line

I just purchased the WGen9500DF and it is hands down the best!
It has more features than you'll ever need.
After simple assembly of the wheel kit and adding the encluded oil. I added gasoline, hooked up the propane tank and pushed the remote start button and it started right up.
The noise level is very acceptable, comparable to a lawnmower.
It is by far (even generators costing twice as much) a TOP OF THE LINE PRODUCT!
Backed by a 3 year Warranty, what more could you possibly want.

New, but so far, so very good!

We bought this to replace a smaller Generac that served us well. But, we wanted to be able to power more; our water heater, well pump, even a/c, as well as our security system and cameras. (We’re kind of remote, out in the country) It came in two days, perfectly boxed, no damage at all. The SAIA driver kindly wheeled it right into our garage. I used a small floor jack to jack each side up to install the wheels and foot pegs. Basically, it was unboxed, instructions read, and ready to fill the oil in no more than 20 minutes. I charged the battery for a couple of hours, although the indicator lit yellow from the box; I just wanted it to be well-charged. I added half a tank of gas for now, paired the remote, and it started up instantly. After ten minutes or so, I threw the main breaker and plugged in some lamps, etc., to see if it was working. The duplex plugs are all working fine. We’ll be hooking this up to a 300-gallon propane tank soon, running 50A directly into the plug under our breaker box; but I wanted to check it out on gas first. So far, so good. I have little doubt but that this will be a great generator for some time to come. It’s beautiful, stout, and seems very well-built.

Very well made

This generator seems very well made. The assembly was easy, and the directions were clear (except for showing the handle used to lift and move the generator, which is great, but I didn’t see it at the beginning). It started right up on propane. Have not yet tried gas. Loved the electric start. Not sure about the value of the remote start for my use case, but I may change my mind in actual use. Outlets look solid, and there is a good range of configurations available. I would give it 5 stars if It were quieter. It is probably quieter than most in its class, but still noisy. Overall recommended,

Great Generator, Wgen9500DF

Great unit, perfectly priced, started on 1st try with Propane tank, with the supplied remote starter. 30 Amp or 50 Amp options. The unit was packaged with everything you need, except the wiring as would would make sense.
The User Manual was very detailed and fully informative.

Great power!

We had 2 power distruptions this summer and I expect more to come. Majority ash trees are dead in the state aand WE Energies is not able to cut them all down. I only tried generator and it started right away. Right now electrician is setting all lines to connect to main panel if necessary. After he is done we will try it again to see how much power it can actually give. I expect conditioner, furnace, well, microwave, refrigirator and lights in one room. This product was recommended by electrician.
