The Powerful Generator brings Peace of Mind

With all the stuff going on in the US and World these days, I thought it was a good idea to finally get a generator….I have been considering it for years, but decided to do it now. I spent about 10 hours doing research on generators and reading reviews and decided on the WGen9500DF. It had very good reviews and I can see why. I followed the instructions and was able to assemble it without issue, although I would suggest having a second person around to help you tilt it when installing the wheels as this generator is very heavy. I added the oil, plugged in the battery, hooked up my propane tank and it fired right up, no problem. I plugged a couple of things in it to test it and was confused a first because that didn’t work, but then I noticed the GFI button I needed to push, and after that everything worked great..ran my drill and a shop light without issue. I will probably have an electrician wire the switch into my house so I can run what I want to run inside my house without dragging power cords around. I love this generator and it gives me peace of mind knowing that I have it.

Simple setup

The delivery was a little confusing but once it got here I can't say I was dissapointed. I don't plan on there being any power outages anytime soon but thus far what I have tested on it runs fine. I'm not used to having a generator around the house so it is a peace of mind that I have currently.

AWESOME GENERATOR!

Easy to set up. I could easily power my entire house, although I turned off my Heat pump circuit breakers. It handled all the power load I put on it without any overload issues. This generator had the best reviews in my research and really happy I bought the Westinghouse WGen9500DF.

Built to last

Just bought it recently going thru all the features now. Had it fully assembled only moments after getting it off the delivery truck. Four bolts to hold two pads and two pins to hold the wheels THATS IT. The engineers put thought into building this thing for the consumer. Very user friendly. You do not need a degree in electronics to operate. If you can unlock your car door you can start this generator it’s that simple. I’m so happy we went with this model we looked at several brands.

Great Features for the price

Bought this generator to run our shop tools until we could get power hooked up. It has all the plugins that I would need to run any of my tools. So far it has ran great. Only complaint is it is a little loud but for this big of a generator it is bearable.

Fits Our Needs

We needed a product with enough power to run our appliances and lights - with a little to spare. This is what the 9500DF provides for us. It is also relatively quiet and can operate on either gas or propane, making fuel storage much easier. One bonus benefit that we really needed was the electric start. We dreaded the idea of pulling a cord, which, at our age, is not that easy. The generator is solid, but not so heavy that I could not attach the feet and the wheels myself. The lift-up handle makes it easy to move.

Great Back Up Dual Fuel Generator

I bought this last month, set-up was a breeze. It is very heavy but with the wheels on it's easy to move it around. This will be ready for hook up to the transfer switch installed to my mother's new house, finger crossed when the power goes out. The remote start is also a plus and will be trying it with propane gas first.

Simple set up and use

I just purchased this item and it arrived early. After an easy set up I hooked up the propane following the instructions and fired it up with no problems. Very simple to operate and I specifically bought this unit for the dual fuel option. I like the ease of use and hopefully I won’t need it for an emergency this year’s hurricane season.

great generator

Just unpacked my new WGen9500DF. It was ready to go right out of the box, just had to install the wheels and add oil which was included in the box. With the power outages in Texas I needed a powerful generator to protect my family during winter weather, hurricanes, and long hot summers. So far I am happy with my purchase.

So happy with my purchase

Did a lot of research before I made my purchase and so happy we went with a Westinghouse generator. The one we got is dual fuel, starts with a push button and tells us the fuel levels. We will definitely be prepared the next time Austin has another snow storm and we lose electricity. Can’t wait to use it!
