Remote start/stop

I bought this a month ago which I’m very impressed on how easy the setup was. Additionally, this works perfect for my house, which power goes out quite often in my area. Finally, I do love the remote start/stop feature that enables me to click on off from within my house, very convenient feature. I love this product and worth every penny. Thank you!

GREAT GENERATOR

This is a powerful generator in a relatively small package. I love the dual fuel capability and switching between the two fuels is very easy. the generator is supposed to be quieter than most other brands but still seems loud but it is what it is. this generator would benefit from an idle control which would likely extend it's running time. Overall I am very happy with purchase. Plenty of power with great features.

Powerhouse

We are very excited about this investment because historically we have several power outages each year. We've owned a smaller generator for many years and it's been a lifesaver in keeping the refrigerator/freezer going. But due to its size, it can only power so much. We've been considering a "whole house" model for some time and after seeing the positive reviews and that it was on sale, we pulled the trigger. Set up was straightforward and quick. And we don't know how to act with all these features...having the push button start and gauges are a game changer. The unit itself is compact, sturdy and each option is clearly labeled. It is HEAVY, but the handle and wheels make it so easy to move around. We haven't used it yet, but it's ready to go when needed. We are confident in this generator with the Westinghouse name behind it.

Fingers Crossed

We just received our new generator yesterday, it was packaged well and arrived a whole day early! We assembled the wheels and feet, no problem. We added the oil and fired her up on propane! Seemed a bit quieter than the smaller generator we had been using and we're keeping our fingers crossed that it will meet our expectation during the next power outage.

Excellent Generator with Good Features

I bought this generator after doing a lot of online research on the best duel fuel generators out there, and this one was always listed on the sites I visited. It has great features and I am so glad I purchased it. This is my first generator and now have peace of mind knowing that we will have power during the next power outage.

Looking for back up power for Snowmagedon

Last Winter we lost power and had to drain pipes and live with friends. We bought this unit to get wired into our breaker box so we can switch off our connection to the power company if power is out and run on the generator until its on and stable again.

Great Design

Consideration given from packaging through assembly and features.. Flange bolts instead of washers and hex bolts and battery charger are greatly appreciated. I experience frequent power outages where this generator will be used so only time will tell regarding long term reliability but we are off to a good start.

Generator won't start out of the box

I assembled this duel fuel generator 9500DF as per manual, connected battery cable, hooked propane tank, no load or any appliances hooked, battery is full, and with start button it's just trying to fire up but won't work. I can hear 3-4 clicking sounds but nothing after that. I don't want to put gasoline yet in case it's bad unit and i have to return it. The pull cord is locked and won't pull at all; looks like engine is locked. Opened a case with Westinghouse; if they can't help on this brand new machine I will return it.

Easy to use, works as advertised

Exactly what we need to run the house when the power goes out. The wheels make moving to position easy; would be too heavy otherwise. Storms have become much more extreme and loss of power is more frequent. Hired an electrician to install the breaker, transfer switch and outside power outlet.

Great Generator!

I bought this item as a power backup to our home. The instructions were easy to follow in putting together and how to use. The item works great. I now have confidence that my family and I are ready if we experience the same power outages we suffered through during the early 2021 winter storm that we had in Texas.
