I bought this generator as part of a larger project to finally install a transfer switch in our home so we have power during extended outages from now on. I selected this particular generator (despite it not being the least expensive option available to me) based on the strongly positive reviews other owners had provided. Won’t know for sure if I was right until a power emergency arises…but until then I will rest easier knowing we have a reliable solution in place for us.

I was in the market for a generator with enough wattage to power the majority of my 2200 sqft home and I finally settled on the WGen9500DF. Shipped directly to my door, unpacking and assembly took 10 minutes. Generator fired right up on both gas and propane. I have a natural gas water heater, range, and dryer, so my power needs aren't extremely high. However, this little power house ran my 4 ton ac (hard start capacitor), 2 fridge/freezer combos, numerous lights and other electronics while running on gas for 1 hour without issue. I'm confident when the next hurricane knocks out power, I'll be able to rely on this baby until power is restored. I have not yet had the need to contact customer service yet, however, I've heard/read that Westinghouse is superior to other brands. Another satisfied customer, thank you Westinghouse!

I bought this generator a few weeks ago. Timing couldn't have been more perfect. Had a storm take down my power lines and had no power for a couple of days. Fired this right up and it started instantly, great back up generator and plenty of power for my well, stove, furnace, etc. I need to upgrade to a bigger transfer switch and then this should be able to power my entire house in an emergency.

This unit was easy to assemble & setup for use. It came with oil which was nice. I did do an initial break-in period that I do on most new engines, although this might not be deemed necessary by some as it appeared to be filled & drained by the factory before shipment. Easy layout of controls, push button start/stop, data center readout was very nice to have. I haven’t put it under a full load yet, but seems to be a workhorse. Westinghouse did a good job, very pleased so far.

Since you are reading this you are probably considering actually purchasing one. If you are like me, you have procrastinated on pulling the trigger. This generator was super easy to setup for a technically challenged user like me. Dual fuel gives gives you more options (I use propane). It powers way more than you will need (in a power outage situation). It’s solidly built and easy to maintain. Westinghouse is synonymous with electric power. Kudos!

Bought this recently as a back up genset but now it’s the primary. Connected the generator to my household propane tank and it runs like a champ! Tested it and it runs the house (well, ac, etc). One benefit of this generator is it’s easy start capability. My wife can start and stop it if I’m not at home and that’s important. And for a portable genset I found this to be quieter than my older model. We could actually have a conversation while it is running. Bottom like is that I would recommend this genset.

Have been wanting one of these for along time. Received it as a gift. I live in the country and occasionally we have power outages that last for a couple of days. This lets me set the generator up in the late evening and let it run all night. Others I looked at didn't have this long of a run time.

Just received my generator 3 days ago. Showed up on the day it was promised. Followed the direction easily. Started right up. Still need to have the cord made up so I can connect to my house. I'm almost ready for our first big winter storm here in Maine.

The Westinghouse 9500DF generator arrived earlier this week, and so far it appears to be a great machine. The assembly, operation, maintenance instructions were very clear and accurate. The safety warnings were valuable, too. Even though it was shipped dry, it started up pretty quickly after oil and gas were added. The electric start is flawless. I know I can count on this generator to power my well pump and all necessary household devices when needed during an extended power outage.

I was so impressed with all the features offered after comparing it to the many brands on the market that it was an easy decision to make regarding the purchase of the Westinghouse portable generator. I look forward to many long years of reliability with my new portable generator.
