Best bargin for price, fuel efficiency and power o

After doing a lot of research online, I found that the Westinghouse 9500 dual fuel generator was the best Bang for my buck! I looked at power output, fuel efficiency, and cost. This model ranked at the top of my list for all 3 areas. The duel fuel capability and remote start are a real bonus. Unpacking and assembly was a breeze. I would recommend this particular model to anyone!

Ready to run in 30 minutes

Bought this unit to work with generlink transfer system for standby power for our home. Packaged very well. Added oil. A bit of gas . After put on wheels and legs. Remote started. Fired up in about 5 seconds. Ran perfect. I was very pleased that it has a tool.kit and funnel for oil. Best was no damage or missing parts. And not made in china

So powerful!

We bought this generator after a major hurricane. Our neighbors have one and it runs their entire house. We jumped on board and bought one ourselves because we have a well and need electricity to get running water. It was very easy to put on the legs and wheels and to start up for the first time. We love it because it is a duel fuel and sometimes it’s really had to find gas so the option for propane as backup is great. I really like how it has a remote start and push to start so we don’t have to go out and mess with it in the rain.

Better packing needed.

I received the box with minimal damage (holes in box). After unpacking the paint on the front panel was chipped off. Two out of the four mounting feet bolts would not screw in due to the threads being stripped! I had to use smaller bolts, nuts and washers to secure that I supplied. I hope it holds up.Customer should not have to do that. There was not parts that could be sent as the threads are threaded into the frame. They would have had to send a new unit which I was not going to go through all that trying to ship this unit back. The unit does not start using push button or remote unless it is warmed up. You have to manually slide choke before starting cold. After warmed up they will start either way. This should not have to be. What's the use of remote start if you have to do that. I ran the unit for one hour and it seemed to run fine.

Highly Rated - Well Built

The unit was just delivered 2 days ago. The instructions are clear. The capability is excellent! Possibly the highest rated generator on the internet. Have it ready to go in case of emergency. Capable of running everything except our AC. Now that we have, we will probably never lose power again and that is worth it!

Great Generator

Amazing ...installed wheels, two feet and added oil. Then connected and opened my propane bottle valve. Switched on the battery and pressed and held the remote button for a second and after 3 start attempts to start VAROOM off she went ( propane needs to displace the air in the line). Ran it for maybe 5 minutes and shut it down and closed the propane valve.

Easy to maneuver for a 200 lb generator

Assembly was a breeze and instructions are very clear. The WGen9500DFcc is well built and sturdy. I only have had a chance to do some break in time but it looks to be a very fine machine. The only negatives would be that the oil level does not indicate correctly, after putting the full 1.16 quart of oil supplied it read on the low line of the dipstick .The other problem is that the part numbers in the owners manual for high altitude propane kit don't seem to exist ?

Exceeded Expectations

With more frequent power outages I bought this generator for back up power. Within a week of receiving it I ended up needing it and it exceeded my expectations. The setup was clear and easy; and the start up/shut off options were flawless. The remote start works farther than stated, and compared to other generators it is relatively quiet. I look forward to trying it out with propane. So far a very worthwhile purchase.

Best Buy - great value!

I did a lot of research and spoke to friends, neighbors and my electrician. When I showed them the WGen9500DF each of them agreed hands down it was the best. My research backed that up as it constantly shows up as the top ranked generator. It is easy to use and super versatile. I highly recommend this dual fuel generator - best in class!

My husband and granddaughter are happy!

We did a lot of research before buying this model. I love that I don't have to go out and pull start a generator! LOVE the remote control! So far we are happy with it. It's not as loud as our old one wich is a plus.My granddaughter even can tell you how it works.
