I took delivery yesterday. It was mostly assembled only requiring the mounting feet and wheels be installed. One of the mounting feet nuts is missing from the frame, so I will have to pick one up to complete that install. The wheels are well built and easy to install by use of a axle pin, washer, and cotter pin. I plugged in the battery charger and connected the battery. The manual says it ships charged and by the time I added the quart of oil, the battery charge light had changed from red to green. I connected my propane bottle to the regulator and used the remote for the first start. It took about 7 seconds of cranking to purge the propane line and start. I loaded the generator lightly by adding a 500W halogen light, a box fan, and a pancake air compressor. Don't forget to reset the GFCI plugs! I removed the loads after 10 minutes and allowed it to run unloaded for a few minutes and used the remote to stop the engine. I then restarted the engine using the pushbutton on the console. The engine started within 3 seconds. It takes a few seconds for the start button to illuminate solid and the dater center do turn on and display the voltage. You can then toggle through the displays. As other reviews have stated, this generator is quieter than others. It is comparable, but slightly louder than the the popular RV generators and certainly quieter than most portable generators. Delivery was fast with great updates and phone calls to ensure I was ready for the driver. It arrived a week earlier than originally promised. 15 to 20 minutes to set up an connect the propane and have it running is great. I am pleased so far with this selection.

Bought this generator at beginning of January. I also had an electrician put in a Relay switch. So very glad I got both. We are experiencing historically cold temperatures along with ice and snow in Texas resulting in power shutdowns for 24-36 hours. Thankfully my Westinghouse Generator worked beautifully and kept my wife and I warm when the power companies shut us off. So glad I bought the WGen9500DF!

I bought the generator in preparation for winter power outages. After the disaster in Texas last year I wasn't taking any chances. My electrician tells me it will work great for my needs and as soon as he installs the power inlet box we will give it a test run. Easy assembly, fired right up on propane, running smoothly. The remote start is a great feature.

Unit arrived earlier that originally stated. It is a very heavy unit but installing the wheels and feet are easier if you block up the unit instead of trying to tip it on its side as indicated in the manual. Startup on propane was painless and immediate. Unit shipped with the GFCI receptacles in the tripped state. Once reset, all worked as expected. The only suggestion would be shipping enough oil with the unit to actually fill to the recommended level of between the low and high marks on the dipstick. The oil shipped with the unit barely made it to the low mark. Fortunately, I had oil of the same rating to add.

My family and I recently moved to Florida and because of the storms and possibility of hurricanes, we need the protection of a generator for our home and convenience if the event happened. I am want to do a lot of research and after reading a lot of reviews #MIN at Westinghouse was the generator I want to go with. It had the all of the features that I required in a generator, electric start, dual fuel ( gas or propane )and remote module for starting it without having to go outside. Assembly what little there is was extremely easy. It appears to be constructed extremely well. W did buy the umbrella also to protect it from the rain while running. Started right up. I will be running it prior to having an outage to break it in properly. I will follow up with another review once I complete the breakin.

Bought this item to replace a smaller emergency power generator. I had to intall a convertor kit on the old one. The dual fuel on the new one is awesome. I also love the electric start, especially the remote start ability. I live in an area that experiences quite a few outtages during storm season and winter. This generator is a life saver!!!

We bought this generator to support our whole house needs during a power outage. We wired up a 50 Amp outlet to the breaker box and added an interlock to manage the mains vs generator. Using dual 30lb Propane tanks connected with a dual tank switchover regulator. We did a whole house test and found that we can have both high efficiency Mitsubishi heat pumps cooing the house with about 3KW left for other loads. We really love this generator and it's dual fuel capability, large amperage capacity, metering, great design.

I am in the process of breaking in the generator at this time. The generator will power the house. With the exception of opening a GFCI breaker with a UPS plug in. Remove the UPS and the GFCI circuit will stay closed. Oh I did have the water heater breaker open. Three items I would like to see; 1. Made in U.S.A. Stamped on the frame. (I thought I was purchasing a gen made in the USA. My mistake. 2. A frequency adjustment. I am seeing a reading of 62+ hz. 3. A output amp reading would be great.

I was impressed that a full warranty was offered with the Westinghouse refurbished units. The cost savings went toward installing the necessary electrical components to connect to the house. I appreciated the prompt communication in reply to my question about shipping. Of course this review cannot yet include my experience running the generator. I have only just received it, this review was requested during warranty registration. I’d be happy to update my review once some hours are on it.

I bought this because if the great reviews. I like that it runs on gas and propane. My Electrcian put in a transfer switch and got it going with the electric start. I live in the NE so if a storm comes in the night I can have it ready to go with my remote from inside! Hopefully now that I’m prepared I won’t need it!
