Easy to Assemble. Started right up!

I bought this generator for my ranch to power my 240V well. This thing is amazing. I can be in my home, hit the automatic start button on my key chain and the generator turns on powering the well. With the rolling blackouts going on in California its a must have. Also hurry up and buy these now especially if you you live in California. They are trying to outlaw these units and have already passed legislation restricting these small gas powered engines. Get yours fast.

GREAT FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE

This generator took about 45 minutes to set up. Great easy start, runs equally well on gasoline and propane. More quiet than our old Briggs & Stratton generator. We have been able to run one of our central air units as will as all of the required lights on our 3700 sq ft home, 2 refrigerators, hot water heater a couple of IMac computers, Internet, 2 TVs. Were in Central Florida getting ready for hurricane season. Great purchase. S. Polk

Solid Unit

After serious research we decided on this product and happy that we did. The overall power and two fuel options really make the difference. Just in time for some serious weather that has power outage potential. Even though we can't hardwire in at this time the option to do so to run the entire home is awesome. Even though the unit is pretty heavy its easy to move with the wheels and the size is smaller and more compact than I expected. Some reviews said it was loud but it doesn't seem too bad for what you're getting in power return. Planning on having this generator for years to come for whatever emergency arises.

Great Features

Bought this generator in case of weather related issues that could cause our electrical grid to go down. We are going to have it hard wired to our cabin and really liked the ease in which to start this unit with just a flip of a switch. Dual fuels was also a plus for us.

Great value and features

After my old generator failed me during our last power outage, I researched a number of generators and determined the WGen9500DF had the highest value. I particularly appreciate the dual fuel and electric start. I always have LP on hand and the electric start provides assurance that my family will always have access to power even if I'm not home. I'm in the break in phase now. Everything has gone perfectly... Delivery, assembly, and use.

Great experience

Delivery guys were great and on time. They moved the box into the garage where I needed it. The actual box was in perfect condition. The generator and all of the parts were neatly packed in an orderly manner. It started right up on propane and gas using the key fob and the electric start with no hesitation. So far I'm very happy with it!

Very Impressed with Unit

I purchased the 9500DF unit for power backup in our home. Unit arrived in good condition, easy to assemble and move around after assembly. I plan to use propane mostly to avoid the extra maintenance of gasoline in the carburetor. I connected a 15 lb propane tank, the unit started immediately with the remote. I purchase a 13' 6-gauge extension cord and connected it to a 50 amp outside outlet. Generator ran fine with an electrical load, very pleased with unit so far.

Couldn't Be Happier

I bought my Westinghouse Dual Fuel generator back in July of 2021. I am very happy with it as it can power my entire house during an interruption in power. I particularly like the versatility in being able to use propane or gasoline. Great product from a very happy customer.

SO EASY TO SETUP

Purchased in June and received July 8th. Decided to go ahead and start up to make sure it worked. Put in gas and oil, pushed the Start button, automatically tried to start the generator, cycled twice and no start. I finally checked closer and the choke was not engaged. Corrected and pushed Start and....it started running. I love the push button start and the Key Fob Remote Start...it really works. I let it run about 15 minutes, shut it down, restarted it about 30 minutes later and it was so easy...just push the Start button or the button on the Key Fob and it started on the second try. Due to Covid-19, I am waiting on the electrician to get it installed to an outside 50 amp box which will connect it to my breaker box in the garage and will also have a special breaker installed so there will be a seamless transfer in case we have a power outage, which is likely since I live in Florida and we have hurricanes. I thoroughly researched generators for months because I have never owned one. This Westinghouse generator is highly rated and recommended. It is rated to run the house A/C as well as refrigerator, lights, etc. Will have to follow directions to properly used when I get everything installed.

Well-designed unit.

Bought this generator a few weeks ago. Assembly was simple. I like many of the features of this unit. Have owned competitive models in the past. The starting system is very nicely designed. Expect to use this as a home back up and a mobile source of power around our farm for many years.
