We bought this unit for a new sub panel to power our house in the event of a PSPS. Unit came highly recommended by our electrician and is feature packed with a 50 amp plug to fully take advantage of this beast, not to mention the easy electric start.

I live in a rural area and we have power outages often. I have a small generator that I would use to keep the refrigerators and freezer running. I bought this generator so I could connect it to my electrical panel with a cable and run most everything during an outage. It works great and I am ready for the next outage.

I just received my generator Wgen9500DF, and the assembly of the wheels and initial set up was very easy. The instruction manual is very clear and the instructions easy to follow; I did the whole assy by myself. I will provide another update review once I get the unit running for a few hrs, but so far very pleased with the unit.

After quite a bit of looking, this was the brand and model that had great reviews, a full set of features (including my must-have dual fuel) and modern conveniences such as the key fob start. The generator arrived in great shape, fired up on the first try, and effortlessly powered the A/C unit of my RV. Very satisfied so far.

This generator didn’t even last (3) three months! Valve spring broke! Broken metal pieces got into cylinder wall and piston! They were scarred! So I have been without a generator for two weeks waiting for a new replacement! No power to run my air conditioner!!

I bought this about two months ago. Lol and just assembled it. It was not hard you just have to read and follow. If your by yourself and are much like me it can take you about an hour. That’s only because I’m not the best at reading and following directions. Two people will probably cut half of the time or less. Of course depends on whose helping. Either way it’s not difficult.

We recently moved to the foothills of the Sierras (Northern California). Power outages are common, so we bought a little 2,000 watt portable to keep devices charged. We are presently in the middle of an extended outage with no end in sight. My neighbor is an electrician and he told me he could wire this generator into our main so we can power the whole house with very little disruption. I had been under the impression that a whole-house generator would cost five figures. This was an absolute bargain. The only very minor quibble I have with the unit is that some of the threads for the nuts securing the feet are fouled either with paint or a manufacturing burr. I attached the feet using one bolt each but will ream them out later. For now, they're secure enough. That very minor defect is the only reason I did not give it five stars. Being able to run on propane as well as gas is a huge convenience. We will plumb it into our 450-gal propane tank but use gasoline for backup. The wireless fob to turn the generator on and off is a very nice touch. If we have future extended outages, it'll make life a lot easier.

We purchased this generator for our 2nd home in the Sierra Mountains as a total back-up connectable to a transfer box that powers every appliance and outlet. This enables us to shower, cook dinner, wash clothes etc. The unit starts easily with battery and trickle charges when stored. Had a propane "T" installed for a quick-connect to our property propane tank. Looking forward to a good experience.

This unit has a great wattage availability for the cost along with a long run time,dual fuel, wireless starting, push button and pull rope starting options. During my comparison search the Westhouse units were consistently at the top of the ratings. With a three year warranty, excellent manual with all the contact information need in case of an issues. I purchased to partially backup my house,mostly freezers. But done properly it can run most everything in the house. It is not a whole house unit but is very capable when the proper use and wattage/ amps is used correctly. Well packaged condense unit. Hope to have many years of useful use from the unit.

Although I don’t have anything to compare to and looking at numerous others I decided on the WGen9500DF. Right out of the box (adding the oil) a few pulls and it started right up. I used gas the 1st start but will likely be using propane moving forward because it burns cleaner. Although the generator is loud I actually thought based on what I’ve been told it would be louder. (Another plus) I recently had a 50 amp transfer switch installed and after starting plugged in the generator I was able to power the pool, fridge, freezer, router, various lights, etc. I switched those off and turned on heat and then pool (along with fridge and freezer) and there didn’t seem to be any hesitation. My wife and my minds are at ease heading into the crazy Texas winters which are very unpredictable.
