Initial unpacking and inspection looks great !

Just bought this today in preparation for another possible power outage, so don't expect to use it too often, but the initial inspection and packaging was great. Everything was packed securely, and the quality of the item and the protective framework were amazing. Will finish up tomorrow, fire it up and do a break-in run so that it will be ready for service when needed. A lot of power available at a reasonable cost to protect our home when power goes out, saving refrigerated items along with keeping ourselves cool / warm and the lights on.

Great features and super easy assembly

I ordered the WGen9500DF on-line October 28, 2021 and it was delivered to my shop on November 3rd. It was well packaged and assembly consisted of mounting the two rubber foot mounts with two screws for each mount; installing the two wheels; adding 1 quart of 10/30W engine oil and going on-line at wpowereq.com to register the unit. A trickle battery charger comes with the unit as did the oil, funnel, wheels, rubber foot mounts, spark plug wrench, 10mm wrench for rubber foot mounts and LP hose assembly. The Generator will be used for backup for the house and shop at one time. My breaker panel is outside near the shop, it has been updated with a transfer switch and with an inlet box to accept the 30 amp generator cable that I ordered in advance.

Ease of assembly and fuel use flexability,

Very easy to assemble. Started up with out any issues. Electric start is a plus. Peace of mind having a manual start option as well. Having service panel replaced for having the ability to connect for supplying whole house power in the case of a power outage.

Great product at great price

The WGen9500DF is very well made and easy to move. The 9,500 running and 12,500 peek watts is sufficient to power my entire 2,900 sqft house, even the 4 ton AC with breaker management. Easy to store in the garage and pull out for quick hook-up in a power loss. Just move outside the garage door, hook up a propane tank, and plug the 50 amp cord in to feed the breaker panel.

Just what I was looking for - great value

After purchasing a iGen4500DF, I knew that I wanted a Westinghouse to be able to power 220V for my well pump and other high power appliances. ~10K is what I needed, and also wanted the dual fuel option. The instructions were clear, and in no time, I had the generator wheels installed, and started it right up. It's just what I was looking for and feel confident that I'll be ready for the next power outage!

Glad to get it !!!

I ordered the generator three and a half weeks ago. Just got it today. Everything looks good, haven’t put the oil in it yet Looks like a quality built unit . Had a little oil on the box and frame, probably from when the original oil was drained. I am excited about getting it running, but it is a rainstorm today

Perfect and Easy to Set Up

I bought this to power my home in case of power outages due to winter storms. It has all the options that I needed and a remote start to use in inclement weather. It has a small profile with plenty of power and multiple output options. It is quiet and efficient.

WGEN9500DF dual fuel. Easy start, setup

I had it setup with 50amp and interlock on my main breaker. Tested the generator and was able to run everything I needed. I will see if it can handle hot water tank that would be perfect. Quieter than my old Generac. Loved that I can start it on propane then switch to gasoline. Just need to see how well it holds up after next power outage.

Worked well at first

I bought this and it it worked great out of the box, was not damaged, but after a few months it stopped working with gasoline. The fuel was fresh and had stabilizer in it. It still runs fine on propane, but the fuel selector switch appears to be the problem.

Great Generator with awesome features

I bought this after the last Texas winter storm and power outage. I plan to keep this unit on hand as a backup power source. Setup was super simple and it worked flawlessly right out of the box. Love the remote start and included charger. You cant beat this generator at the price!
