Awesome generator!

Bought this in November 24. Used it a couple of times during power outages. It powers our whole house, including heat pump, with no issues! Lifesaver! Up here in the mountains of Virginia we need a generator like this one to get through the winters. Haven't run it off propane, only gas. It was easy to set up and a high quality product.

Westinghouse WGen9500DF for OffGrrid

After purchasing this Westinghouse WGen9500DF, I've been exploring the features—and there are a lot of them. Dual fuel capability, electric start, quick-connect battery cables, remote start and stop (huge win), fuel gauge, LED info display with hours, metal gas tank, included propane hose and regulator, basic tools, oil, and even a built-in trickle charger. The remote start/stop alone is worth mentioning—no more rock-paper-scissors to see who has to go shut it off in the cold. That's a quality-of-life upgrade I didn't know I needed. We're using this generator for off-grid living, and so far it's been awesome. It's handled our setup well and performed exactly as expected, if not better. We've had a few small hiccups, but those were mostly user error while learning a new system—not the generator itself. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase. Solid build, thoughtful features, and reliable performance so far. Would absolutely recommend it, especially for off-grid or backup power use.

EZ Enough For a Grandma to Use

Texas grandma here: purchased after '21 Snowmageddon. Sat in the box to Jan 2026. Easy to assemble. Moved from shop to house with some effort but doable. Tested with my propane and would not start. Charged the battery and voila! It started. The ice storm hit and power went out. Generator worked great. Ez to switch propane tanks and electric start. So great we are getting the electrical system updated to eliminate extension cords and plumb into our propane tank. We were able to run vital plugs and keep our wood pellet stove going.

Awesome Generator

I bought this on the day of the blizzard 2/22/26, it was the last one in the store! I was like I'll take it! in 2012 I lost my house to the Sandy storm and I wasn't going to go through that again! This Westinghouse Generator was a god sent! I lose power for a very short time, but it was worth piece of mind knowing I was able to use my new generator! Thank you!

Best in Class!!

I am a new home owner in in South West Florida and understand the importance of having a generator on hand in case of emergencies. After extensive research, I decided on the Westinghouse duel fuel unit for our home. This decision was based on many happy customers in may different forums. Westinghouse has proved itself as an excellent choice in the midrange price line. We hope to not need to use it but if we do I feel confident it will get the job done.

The mercedes of generators

Bought this generator for the fact that I was tired of not Habib electric power whenever severe storms rolled by, all i took was one look at this amazingly built machine and i had to get bit! This thing is exactly how I described on the title, THE MERCEDES OF GENERATORS! Look nowhere else, if you want the peace of mind in knowing you will have power to the entire house while running all essential appliances when storms knock out the power grid then take heed and take action!! Thank you westinghouse for this amazing build, this machine is absolutely beautiful and performs just as I thought. Highly recommend!

Wow

I purchased one gen from another source and had problems with it starting. I researched and found this unit. Loved the duel fuel. After receiving added oil hooked it up to Propane and it the starter button off she went. I live at 6500ft so I bought high altitude kit after. Had to use generator for power outage before installing kit and it worked great ran for 8 hrs no problem. Received kit, they changed number of kit so had to call twice to get the correct part number. Looked up Youtube video on installing and installed kit very easy to do. After hitting start button fired right up. Going to install transfer switch to make it whole house. Very pleased worked just as advertised and did a great job

It worked and is easy

Bought this 6 months ago for random power outages at my home. Unboxed it today and started it up to test it. It worked! Very easy to hook up with propane. Electrician connected it to my main breaker with the interlock system and an electric hook up outside. Easy for anyone to use. The push battery start is so nice. As a woman, it was easy to wheel into my shed for storage. Now I'll just need to figure out how to keep the battery charged or get a small jump starter that I can keep in the garage and have it ready when generator battery needs a charge. I'm only going to be using it 1 or 2 times a year when the power is out so I can't speak yet to how well it operates for extended period of time. Should be big enough for water pump, and my fridge and basement freezer and house lights/outlets, along with other as needed items like hot water heater and dryer. I'm not using it for my AC/Heat system.

Nice features. Started right up.

I bought this due to a severe ice storm that we are expecting. It arrived promptly. Started on the first try with remote start. I ran it for a few minutes, and it seemed to be operating fine. Instructions were very clear and it was easy to set up. Would recommend.
