Easy Set up & Start Up

Highly recommend! This model is used by DTE Energy throughout their footprint, so it is battle-tested in rigorous field conditions. It should be very reliable and long lasting for a personal home back up operation. Very easy to assemble and start up.

Awesome generator!

I spent a lot of time doing homework on generators and I am so glad I did. This generator is practically turnkey and is easy enough for someone like me to figure out. It’s a great generator and I’m glad that I picked this one because the price of it is great as well. It’s worth it to do your homework there’s a lot of generators out there, this Westinghouse 9500 DEF is a winner!

Nice package

Bought it, and was delivered today. About one hour to set up machine. Worked great on propane, but wouldn't start on gasoline. After a few minutes of searching, found the choke (it is well hidden from sight). Once choked, it started right up on gasoline. Fairly quiet for such a big machine, and will all I want and more.

Good value for the features you get!

Love the fact that I can start this gen with the push of a button, either on the unit, or by using the remote key fob. My shoulders and back are super happy about this feature. I also like the fact that I have the choice of either propane, or gasoline, to power this unit. Add the power of 9,500 watts to the mix, and I can run my whole house with no worries about overtaxing the unit. Super happy with my purchase, highly recommend!

Great Generator, highly recommend....

Recently purchased the Westinghouse WGen9500DF. I’m extremely happy with my decision. Came after three days of ordering, well packaged, extremely easy to setup, everything you need is in the box to get you started, just add fuel and it fired right up. It's nice knowing that I have this unit in my back pocket when needed. Exceeded my expectations......

Best Investment in Emergency Preparedness

With everything happening in the world today and especially the recent power outages across the USA, I decided to invest in a generator for my family. We have experienced a recent power outage that lasted 3 hours but it made me think twice about being prepared. I researched several brands and this Westinghouse generator had the most amazing reviews. I can say with confidence that if an EMP were to strike, then I know that we will have enough electricity to power the things that matter most such as our fridge and freezer. It took a long time to get here but it was definitely worth the wait. I would highly recommend getting this generator to provide a sense of peace when it comes down to your basic survival preparedness.

Great generator for whole house power

I bought this generator to power the whole house since we live in the mountains. I'm hiring an electrician to install a 50 amp power inlet box and interlock kit. I'll be using propane to fuel it and expect that, although we'll have a slight loss of power due to high altitude and using propane, we should be able to run most of the house utilities; well, furnace, freezer, fridge, and lights. The package arrived in great shape and the instructions were well described. Please note that you have to connect the batter, of which is not listed in the instructions! Overall, very satisfied with this purchase, a bit heavy, but the large wheels and padded handle make it easy to move around. Love the remote too! The only other item I'll need is the cable to connect to the house.

Fantastic generator for our home

The WGen9500DF generator has all of the power and features we needed for our home. I can't wait to power it up. Need to purchase a 40 lb. propane tank and then I will be ready to go. The generator was easy to set-up. All I had to do is attach the front legs, the rear tires, and plug the battery cable together.

A very well built generator

I bought this generator due to the reviews of previous owners' comments. I can verify that this generator can power a small house. It has enough watts to do this. The electric start adds a nice feature. Took me about 30 minutes to unbox and assemble this generator. We'll build with a 3 year warranty. Meant for the 9500DFC

Dual fuel is the way to go.

Just received this generator right in time for hurricane season. So happy I went with the dual fuel option. I usually have plenty of propane on hand and will also use the gas portion if needed and the pumps are working. Nice knowing I do not have to store gas or have to leave gas in the tank to go bad. This should give me plenty of years of reliable use.
