Recently purchased a xp9500ih for emergency backup. Needed clean power for certain electronics. Still have my older Chinese diesel and it runs great but sine wave on that boy Is no where close to what I need. Back to tool only on that guy The 9500 has been easy to break in and so far so good on startup and power available. Don’t need a monster unit as we live in New England and power loss in winter is more important than AC in the summer. Match that to a manual transfer switch and propane annd the number are spot on for requirements. The last big one is the wife factor. All she cares about is lights, heat and cooking. All good on those fronts. One last one is noise. She loves the drastic noise reduction on this unit vs my diesel so if she’s happy I am to!

Easy setup, quiet. Runs 4500 watts without even reving up. Compact for its capacity.

2 years of use, quiet and stable power for sensitive electronics. Great for outside

I have owned this generator for 4-5 years. The only issue I had was battery dying for the key start but I could run the generator via pull start with no issues. Generator starts with 2 turns of the key or pulls on the rope start. Provides sufficient power to supply half of my house during outages. Never had a run issue with generator whenever needed.
