Great Features for the price

I bought this generator for the 50 amp hookup and ability to use propane, and was pleasantly surprised that it came with electric start and a battery already included, as well as the wheel kit, and a remote start! I lose power a lot out here in the country and this is going to make it a lot easier to switch over, and run longer on propane instead of running to the gas station every 10 hours.

Elegant Operation and Design

I bought this generator to replace another brand I have had for several years. The quality of this new Westinghouse generator exceeds all expectations. I hope I never need it but I'm comfortable knowing I have this fine machine should the need arise.

Better instructions
4 out of 5 stars review

Nice Gen at a good price

I like the Gen but have an issue with the quick start up instructions. The instructions did not mention connecting the quick disconnect for the battery . I had to troubleshoot to get the electric start to work. The quart of oil was not enough to fill the machine to the proper level per the instructions. It is louder then expected.

Everything I need to power my house

I purchased this for when we lose power at our home. After unboxing the generator, it was simple attaching the wheels and front mounts. It did arrive with a dead battery, happy to see that it comes with a trickle charger, but it did start easy enough with the pull cord. I look forward to using it in the future.

Substantial Generator

Received the generator, well boxed and protected and on time as scheduled. Unpacked, completed minor assembly of wheels and feet. Followed instructions; filled with provided oil. Filled tank with gasoline and fuel stabilizer. Went through startup procedure and then started with remote key fob and after two automatic tries, it started right up and purred like a kitten. Ran it for about 20 minutes. I am surprised at how smooth and relatively quiet it is. I am impressed with the build quality and will provide another review as soon as I have an opportunity to "power up the house".

Easy setup, plenty of power

Out of box experience was easy. Cut the box down the corners, and tip the unit onto its side, on the cardboard. Bolt on feet (wrench included in box) and install one wheel with a cotter pin. Roll unit onto the other side and install the other wheel. Tip upright and fill the oil with the funnel, both included. Connect the battery wire, then thread on the included propane hose/valve. Connect your tank, open its valve, set the unit to propane, then hit start. I connected the 50A outlet to our transfer switch, and can run all the 120v stuff in our house, no problem. Hopefully, having this set up will insure us from any further outages.

Simple setup

The delivery was a little confusing but once it got here I can't say I was dissapointed. I don't plan on there being any power outages anytime soon but thus far what I have tested on it runs fine. I'm not used to having a generator around the house so it is a peace of mind that I have currently.

Peace Of Mind

Being retired and in our first year in Florida and not knowing what to expect during hurricane season, my wife and I wanted a portable generator to help when city electric is down and not available during a storm. We purchased the WGen9500DF to power our home AC unit along with other kitchen appliances. The wireless remote allows us to stay indoors and start generator when needed and avoid the need to go outside and get wet. The designers did a good job on this unit.

Be Prepared

Westinghouse power horse Generator

After going through hurricane Ian, we realized we were unprepared for 12 days without electrical service. We decided on this excellent model which can operate all house systems including the central air, well water pump, water heater, etc. This model also has a transfer switch outlet built-in, and runs on two types of fuel- gas and propane. We installed a new transfer outlet through our local electrician. This allows the unit to be plugged into your breaker box, effectively allowing you to choose whatever systems you'd like to run. It is a great intervention, Yet I am in no hurry to use it! 😂 But it is sure nice to have a backup plan in Florida! A Cat5 Hurricane can be devastating, but the aftermath is unbearable! Be prepared!

Easy to setup and run the first time!

We were without power from a recent ice storm. I purchased this unit to hook up to my house. I chose the dual fuel model and have hooked the unit up to propane. All the instructions were very clear and I was able to get it started using the remote control the first time. Very pleased with the product!
