Better than anticipated

The build quality and accessories are better than anticipated. The generator look to be well built and accessories that are optional on other products are included. I also like the instructions for changing the generator bonding being included in the instructions. This is required if you plan on connecting to your breaker panel directly.

Very user friendly!

I bought this generator to use as a backup power supply for our house. Gasoline or LPG, easy to move and connect, electric or pull cord start (with a remote start clicker!), and plenty of capacity. I've used several different generators on construction sites and for power outages, and this one has the best combination of features of all the ones I've worked with.

WGEN9500DF

Just got this dual fuel generator only started it to make sure it ran so far so good i previously had a duromax xp10000eh and a lot of the wiring was lose causing the generator to burn the stator up along with the main breaker also nuts on the rocker arms were lose causing me to have to purchase a head and new breaker along with voltage regulator this duromax had only 4 run hours at the max but i was informed it was out of warranty as i bought it in 2015 but never needed it came with only 1 year warranty. i am very pleased with the westinghouse this generator seems to be of high quality and supurb workmanship. i will be sending customers to westinghouse as their customer service and equipment seem to be the best

Powerful and with remote start

I needed a generator as a power backup for our wonderful Texas electric grid. This generator provides what I need for my greenhouse in the winter and freezers etc during the summer. I like that is multi fuel and has remote start. I've only used it for about an hour test run so far with no issues.

Powerful and Reliable Beast!

I'm blown away by the WGen9500DFc generator! This thing is a powerhouse! With its 12,500 peak watts and 9,500 running watts, it's handled everything I've thrown at it with ease. Pros: - Reliable: Started on the first pull every time - Powerful: Handles heavy loads like my AC and fridge - Fuel-efficient: Runs for hours on a single tank - Quiet: Surprisingly quiet for a generator of its size - Durable: Built like a tank with high-quality components Cons: None so far! Verdict: If you need a generator that can handle heavy loads and keep going, look no further than the WGen9500DFc. It's a beast of a machine that's worth every penny! Rating: 5/5 stars

Easy of operation

Started up the first time using the push button start. I am using gasoline as the fuel and I'm receiving the full 9500 watt output. The pull start as a battery backup is an added plus. The unit is lighter and easier to use as compared to my old Troybuilt 7800.

Great value and dependable

Recently purchased the WGen9500DFc and I am extremely satisfied with its performance. It was easy to set up and started on the first try. The power output is impressive, has provided reliable electricity for my home during outages and in N CA it happens often. I love that it has a remote start and stop feature. The durable construction and user-friendly controls make it a great investment. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a dependable generator!

LIFESAVER

I bought this generator & it is absolutely amazing. This generator saved my life during a major blackout. I was able to keep my refrigerator going, freezer, TV's the house warm while we waited for power days after. I like the gas feature better because it gives you more wattage than the propane but I do like the 2 ways that you can power this bad boy.

Works well

I bought this about a month ago due to our wonderful state and utility not being able to keep us safe from fires cause primarily by their negligence. OK I'll stop there. This gen powered my home very well. I was able to use everything I wanted to with it. It was nice being able to get up in the morning and just push a button on the phob to turn it on and then the same to turn it off at night. Great product thus far.

Power for the Price

I bought this generator 6 months ago, and it arrived by freight about 6 weeks later. It is a fairly hefty unit, but it has a great handle that helps give you the leverage you need to move it. Assembly from the box was pretty simple and mostly just involved the wheels and a couple connections. This unit puts out lots of power. It is a bit noisy, but that is to be expected. I've only run it with Propane, as I don't want gas sitting in the fuel tank while not in use. It runs well and is easy to start. I love that you can charge the battery even while it is still installed in the unit. It has plenty of connections, including a 50Amp port, which is what I use to connect it to my house. Given the power load capabilities, it can pretty much power my whole house (1500 Sq ft). The only possible improvemen I could imagine would be having the ability to switch between gas and propane on the fly (you have to shut off the generator to switch currently). But overall it is a fantastic unit, with exceptional power output for the price. It really isn't all that portable, so don't buy this as a camping unit. It is truly an emergency home power replacement, or maybe a larger job site power supply. And that's what it is made for. I'd highly recommend it.
