Had been thinking about making a generator purchase the past few years for the home. With having several power outages in the past thought it would be a good idea to make a purchase. Did some research and I went with the WGEN3600 because of the value along with the brand name of a high quality unit.
Small. Super easy to use. I use it camping with my camper. It’s small. Easy to assembly. Packaged well. Includes tools to assemble. As a women it was very easy to use.
This is my 3rd generator, the other two are Troybuilt and are so loud I have to put the at least 50 feet away. This 3600 is so quite I have mounted it on the rear of my travel trailer. The price alone should sell this generator.
I'm very pleased with the generator. It starts right up and has plenty of power. It's a bit on the noisy side but I guess most of them are. The only thing I don't like is the gas gage. It's very hard to read. You really can't tell how many more hours you have left or when it's going to run out. If it had a regular gas gage like on your car the generator would be perfect so I'll have to give it four stars.
Bought for camper, but haven't had a chance to fully load test it yet. Arrived 2 days late (Covid issues) but I was notified of the delay promptly. Everything needed was in the box. Assembly was fairly easy. Started up on second pull and ran solid. Connected camper and tested lights, TV and a laptop and had no issues with this light load. Pretty quiet unit - could only hear a hum outside when in the camper. Easy to understand controls and connectors. Pretty easy to move around on the wheel assembly. Not the fanciest unit, but a good solid value and delivers everything the specs claim. Looking forward to testing it more this spring and summer.
