Easy starting and powerful

This generator took about 10 minutes to put together, put in oil, and it started right up! Love the dual fuel option, I plan to use primarily propane, so the fuel doesn't go stale between uses. I hooked it up to our home panel thru a dedicated 50amp breaker, and it powered up our entire house! ( I left the water heater breaker off because of it's high draw) Very nice generator! Packed well with no damage.

Perfect For My Remote Home

9500DF is the perfect solution as a power backup for my remote home. I live in a remote area at a higher altitude, which experiences power failures during winter months. This generator gives me the confidence and security that I can keep my home warm and powered during these times. The dual-fuel option is an added bonus, as I have both available.

Perfect for whole house back-up power

Arrived on time and in perfect condition. Easy, minor assembly and no surprises. Strait forward removal of neutral ground bond wire for powering main breaker panel. Easy earth ground rod attachment. Started 1st try with remote or panel button. Worked on gasoline and propane. Excellent features.

As Advertised

I bought this for our home after heavy amount of research, and I am quite satisfied with my selection. The unit arrived via freight shipping and after a quick assembly of the wheels and feet, added oil, connected the battery it fired right up! The remote start is a fabulous feature for my wife whom might not be comfortable with walking up to this beast and getting it started. Very pleased.

Easy to assemble, starts right up

Bought this in the wake of some recent storms. We had an inverter plug installed and a switchover at the breaker box, so this bad boy will be able to power our fridge and lights in the event of another major power outage. Although it's super heavy, the big rugged tires make it easy to move around. It started RIGHT UP after assembly, and ran with no hiccups. The dual fuel is a real bonus.

My First Generator!

I purchased this generator as a portable, whole home backup whenever we lose power. The user manual was very easy to read and understand, and after adding oil, gas, and following the start instructions, I had a full functional machine! I am looking forward to the first Midwest ice storm this winter that knocks out the power!

Best Generator We have Ever Owned

My wife and I have owned several generators in the past for backup power for our home in rural Oregon. By far the Westinghouse WGen9500DF is the best generator we have owned. It has ample power to run our home on gas or propane. The remote start is very very nice. It is very quiet compared to our old generators. The 50 amp service it is superior to the 30 amps on our previous generators. The generator came well packed and undamaged and was very simple to assemble the wheel package. It is a very well engineered unit. We highly recommend this generator.

Dual Fuel option. Just what I wanted.

My generator just came in. It was packed first class. Everything was perfect. The instructions were very simple and starting it up on propane was very easy. I feel so much safer now For the hurricane season in front of us and any other natural disaster that may come our way.

WGen9500DFc

I wrote a review 4 days ago and this is my updated review on the product. I used it for Hurricane Beryl in Houston, TX and it worked perfect. This is my very first generator to ever own and I am very happy with it. So far I have ran it for 2 days straight with no issues at all.
