Great features and reliable backup power

Purchased this for a business as a backup power to run our primary IT equipment in case of power failure. The dual fuel is nice as we always have propane on hand for our forklift. It delivers plenty of power to keep our main network and few primary servers online in case of a power outage. The push button start and 50 amp twist lock make it quick and simple to start up and connect to our transfer switch to keep things running.

A lot of Generator for the money.

This Genset has great features that Compareable units in its price range do not have . The receptacles are clearly labeled what they are, which makes finding plugs a breeze . The Duel Fuel option is also a plus. Comes with charger to keep battery at full capacity. Also has a remote start which is a nice feature have .Assembly was 5 minutes. I Would highly recommend this Genset to anyone looking for a backup generator .

Fantastic Buy

I purchased and received this generator within the last three weeks however I am very pleased with the packaging & appearance of this item as I have been searching for the right emergency generator for months. I will complete the start-up this week and update this review at that time.

Great Generator for the price

I bought this generator in May when I moved into our new home. Although I haven't had a chance to really test it out (thankfully we haven't lost power yet), I did get it all set up and ready to go. I was pleasantly surprised to discover the "remote control" fob for the unit. What a great addition to an already great product. Once I charged up the battery for awhile, I did a test start, and the generator powered right up. I'm excited to see it in action!

Great generator

Purchased it for the future to power our home with all the crazy storms these days. Arrived in perfect condition and easy setup and startup. Little did I know I'd need it two days later. Lost power for 18 hours and the generator performed flawlessly.

Excellent Generator

Very easy to operate and powerful generator. I considered getting a full-time house backup generator but after considering that we very seldom lose power here in eastern NC for more than a few days, I decided to get the 9500df. This generator powers the entire house along with two refrigerators and a freezer. Couldn't ask for a better product for the price!

This beast is AWESOME!!!

Shipping was a little late, but no fault of anyone really. Bad weather and limited everything during these times. Arrived in 3 weeks tho, so very satisfied. No damage to the box and it was brand new, everything was there. Love the dual fuel capabilities, and the ease of putting together right out of the box. Everything is included to get her up and running within 30-45 minutes. Remote, push button, and recoil start are solid. Very long range on the FOB. The capacity and looks of this machine are really nice. Learn your power management loads to size to whatever your needs are. This can power my 1800 SQFT home and then some. What I did to break her in was: Inspected the entire machine for factory inefficiencies. Did not find a single thing wrong with it. Then I did 3 oil changes with conventional motor oil. 1 hour run time between each oil change with 20 minutes cool down between each oil change. READ THE MANUAL that comes in the box. Lots of valuable information in there, written by the experts. After the 3rd oil change I switched over to the synthetic oil for extreme cold/hot temperatures. Then I powered up some loads to see how she would do. Handled everything (heaters, power tools, etc) with no issues whatsoever. Very happy with my Westinghouse generator purchase! Well built and very rugged.

Ease of Use

I bought the generator a month ago, and after opening the instructions and reading through the user's manual, i found it very simple to assemble and i especially enjoy the remote start fob that comes with this unit. As an older person, it is a blessing not to have to pull start it.

Wonderful Machine

The generator started right up out of the box with some added oil and gasoline of course! I love the auto choke feature and the ability for remote start. I appreciate the monitor/gauge to display power output, this will be very useful. So far it has started every time; this is the most important "feature" for a generator. I am very impressed with the quality of all of the piece, components, and features on this generator.

Great Emergency Generator

Purchased as protection for all the power outages we have during storms. Really like the ability to switch between propane and gas. Instructions and setup took less than 15 minutes This involved putting on the 2 wheels and supports. Plenty power for our house. Highly recommend!
