We bought the WGEN9500 five months ago. We lost power twice since we've owned it. The generator starts up as intended and kept the house up and running during the cold temp outages.
I am so happy with this generator. It's very powerful. I needed something that would power the whole house and after looking at a few thus was the one. The noise level is alot less than I thought it would be, I was a little concerned about bothering the neighbors. Overall satisfied.
I have a lot of experience with large commercial diesel generators (100 KW+) and portable generators such as this one. It took less then 20 minutes to setup by myself - with the help of my tractor to unload it. I have only run mine for a few hours to start the break-in and try it out. It is quieter then the name brand 8 KW open frame gen it is replacing (the 8 KW reached the end of it's service life) and looks like it will be much easier to service with a better layout. From what I have seen so far, I am really happy with my purchase, I think you would be hard pressed to find a better portable generator of this size for this price - it is a good value. I am pretty confident it will serve my needs as my backup gen for my off-grid homestead for many years with proper service.
We bought this over a month ago, but are very excited about our new purchase. It's very easy to operate and we can run many items with this one generator.
