A lot of nice and modern features

I have only had this a few days, it was packaged well, comes with oil, tool kit, great owner's manual and assembly was minimal and very easy (helps to have an extra pair of hands though to tilt it up enough to install the wheel and foot on each side). Auto Start/Stop button works well, remote is a great feature, digital display is a plus and the fold up/down handle is great for moving it around. I have only started it on propane and it starts a little hard but after one full start cycle it starts on the second try of the second start cycle and runs as expected.

Warranty service is great!

I bought my first Westinghouse generator and it would not start. When I contacted Westinghouse, the support team was prompt in responding to me and got it right into a repair shop where it was determined that it was badly damaged in transit. I got a replacement generator right away and I'm ready for the snow storm that is supposed to hit this week!

Good with propane.

This is powerful for the price. Well built. Good quality. Starts easy with propane. Will not cold start with gasoline. I use plus gas but it will not cold start. After running with propane for a half hour, I can turm it off , switch to gas and then it starts. Assembly was easy. Also the gas gauge does not show any level. Even so I purchased a second one for my son. Same issue with no cold start using gasoline. But the power and price for propane is good.

Power

Generator come very well packed nonetheless is very heavy. Be prepared to have someone with muscles help out unloading at home. It come with kit to add tires for easy transfer, husband had to purchase oil for it. We have yet to use it but looks like great a d ready to cover us during power outage.

New owner!

I haven't tried it yet. So far it is heavier, looks better, and feel premium. I'm so anxious to try it out in the future. The assembly was pretty easy and fun, but be warn again it is heavy you need 2 very strong adults. I recommend having 3 adults at a minimum.

Well Built

Just purchased this generator after being without power for 5 days. After much searching for the best I decided on the Westinghouse 9500 dual fuel. Took it out of the box, install the wheels and support legs added oil and gas and one touch of the button and it was running. The unit is well laid out and easy to get to everything. They have even redone the battery connector so all you have to do is plug the 2 wires together. Also like the fact that it comes with a battery tender so you do not have to worry about a dead battery when the time comes to use it.

Great generator!

Purchased in advance of storm season as we had days without power last year. Haven't connected to the house yet but plan to do that as well. Test runs with both gas and propane were flawless. When the next storm knocks out my power, I know the critical appliances in my home are safe and no more scrambling to save food from fridge and freezers I have.

Just a advertised

Straight forward instructions, easy set up, and perfect first run. Running on propane to avoid the card issues. Initial run worked like a champ. We're set for outages and I feel like my family will be cared for, in part due to this piece of equipment.

Great generator for the money

I bought this generator to replace a smaller one that I had and also to have the option for propane and gasoline. It started on the first push of the remote and I am very pleased so far. Am considering getting another one for a small cabin just in case.

More awesome features than Champion and Duromax

I just purchased this generator and I must say the features are great. Set up was a little difficult. Definitely a 2 person job (please don't use your wife) unless she is a body builder because this monster is heavy. After everything was assembled, pour in gas, stabilizer and oil. Flipped the switch and pushed the button, she fired right up after the third cycle.
