Excellent Generator

Generator came with everything needed to get up and running, just add gas. Started up easy and everything works great. The option to run gas or propane is really nice. This thing is a beast and runs everything I've plugged into it. The push button and remote starting are effortless and the remote has no problem starting the generator from inside my house. The pull start is a nice option in case the battery ever fails. It's a heavy generator so the included wheel kit and folding handle make it easy to move and store. I'm really happy with it and would recommend it to anyone looking to buy one.

Great tool

I bought this as a back up for my home electrical system. I like the idea of having the dual power, so I didn't have to rely on one type of fuel. The electric and remote start are very good features. No problem running my furnace, sump pump, heater, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, gas dryer, etc. After all, this is a must for your home!

Starts right up!

We bought this generator because of the reviews. We had a transfer switch installed, gassed up generator, plugged it in and it started right up! This gives me peace of mind that if my husband isn't home, I can take care of the house with this product!

Great features

Just received it, haven’t had a chance to use it. Bought it to power the house in case of power outages. I have fired it up to test and had no problems. I like that it has enough outlets for multiple appliances or whatever you want to power. So far so good, I recommend the generator, well made to.

Powerful Look!

This generator is well designed and constructed, This is a complete package with all needed to startup. Even assembly tools were provided. I love the duel fueling option, which represents a true backup for various situations that may inhibit getting energy needed.

Great Machine

The Westinghouse 9500DF generator arrived earlier this week, and so far it appears to be a great machine. The assembly, operation, maintenance instructions were very clear and accurate. The safety warnings were valuable, too. Even though it was shipped dry, it started up pretty quickly after oil and gas were added. The electric start is flawless. I know I can count on this generator to power my well pump and all necessary household devices when needed during an extended power outage.

Easy to use and well built

I've only used it a few times but this generator seems solidly built and has all the bells and whistles I can think of. Switching between fuel sources worked like a charm. I did notice one of my sets of LED lights flickered when under generator power, but some others (also LED) did not have that issue. From what I can tell this is normal with some sensitive devices on this type of generator so should use caution with computers etc. I'm happy with the purchase overall and it's good to know I can run just about anything in the house with the power it delivers.

Solid choice

I bought this a few days ago and had not yet tested it, but when I started the registration process there was an offer for a free cover if I provided a review. I would be happy to provide a 5-star review when I have thoroughly tested the product. For now, I am very happy with my purchase experience and am expecting that the product (9500DF generator) will work as promised, and match other excellent reviews.

Got me through Hurricane Milton

I bought this earlier in the year, tested it, and then put it away. I got to use it for real last week after Hurricane Milton rolled through. I topped up the battery just in case, and it fired up on the first button press. The day after Milton I connected the generator to my 50A inlet and I was up and running instantly. We had A/C, hot water, fridge, chest freezer, microwave, coffee maker, TV, and some lights for the entire day. With just the A/C (3.5 ton, set to 78 F), fridge & chest freezer I was using gasoline at about 0.5 gallon per hour or so. I refilled the generator in the evening, around 5PM (started it around 7AM that day). We ran the water heater for a little while with the A/C off just in case. As I was putting the generator away for the night, the power came back on. I wasn't even fretting it though, since we were quite comfortable with what we got out of this generator. My only complaint is that the generator is quite loud, but it's not really an issue when everyone on your street has their own going at the same time. Once inverter generators of this output class become more widely available, I will probably replace this with that.

Sturdy, dependable generator

A power pole fell near my house on Thanksgiving day, and my neighborhood was without power for 8 hours. The next day, I bought this generator. I wanted something that would use propane as a fuel source. So far, I’ve only tested running it and making sure I know how to turn it on. I really like the key fob start and the CO sensor. I’ve not had to use it in an emergency yet. I hope to eventually connect it to my home.
