i just replaced a 35 year old gas generator with the WGEN9500Fc. It is a very nice product and very user friendly. The set-up was very simple and it is easy to move around. It will run on gas or propane which is a added benefit. The starting system is high tech and very easy to navigate. It has numerous receptacles for drop cords and also attaching to you household electrical system. It is not too loud and does not take up much space. It's a great product to have on hand with all of the weather issues and power outages. I feel great about my purchase and the product overall.*****

We bought this generator to supplement our power needs during an outage. We use propane in the country and bought this model because of the run time and fuel flexibility. The size is just big enough to run our two freezers, furnace, and some other essentials. Easy setup out of the box. Only took 20 minutes to setup and get it running. Love the fob feature/electric start too.

We bought this after having our electrician put in a plug so we can run our house during power outages. We live in Florida and have went through quite a few hurricanes without power for long periods of time. One of the main features we wanted was gas and propane (flex) as it is difficult to get gas at times also after a hurricane.

I got this for home use in case of a power outage. It was packaged very well and setup was very easy. Everything is supplied in the packaging including tools, oil, hardware, charged battery and easy instructions. All I had to do is install the feet and wheels, connect the battery. add the oil, add my own gas and it started up with the first try of the remote starter. I hope I never have to use it, but it is very comforting knowing it is there.

Revising my 3 star review of a couple of days ago when I was frustrated with my new and much anticipated WGen9500 DF. When hooked up to my whole house Magnum Charger/Inverter the generator GFCIs would trip, unlike my Champion 8500 watt generator which it was replacing. My fault. On further research I found that the WGen9500DF has a bonded neutral. After I removed the neutral ground jumper, creating a floating neutral, the problem was solved. Generator works perfectly and GFCIs do not trip. This Westinghouse is quieter, more powerful, than my Champion. And the best feature is the remote start. Wish there was a was to delete my earlier 3 star review.

I just bought this a week ago! I tested everything out gas and propane all seems to be working! Am really happy with remote start, I have a bad shoulder so this is great. I would have given it 5 stars but it came with a little damage. Not sure how it happened? I added a photo, but packing could be better.

We were in the market for a generator that was capable of powering our home in the event of a power outage. This generator has all the features I was looking for and some I didn't know existed. The remote start is awesome and even works from inside the house with the generator in the back yard. I didn't expect that. Setup was simple. It started right up. No issues.

I haven't had this generator long but so fat it has done well. Assembly was easy, two wheels and two feet. Filled with oil, cranked up via remote control on first try. I ran it for an hour powering two space heaters @ 1500W each and a portable fan. I ran it off a 15 lb. propane tank and shut it off with the remote. I hope I never have to use it but it's nice to know I have it if I need it.

Westinghouse WGen9500 Home Backup Portable Generator, 12500 Peak Watts This came well packaged and looking great right out of the box. Easy to put together and function. I was impressed with the quality of the materials used and attention to detail. The battery comes with a charger, but the battery was ready to go once I finished the quick start guide. Initially I hooked it up to a 20lb propane (LPG) tank, and it fired up on the first press of the start button. Disconnected the propane and put 2 gallons of gas in. Started up perfectly on the gasoline. I then plugged in a few power tools and it had plenty of power. Finally, with regard to noise level, this is a large generator that operates on average about 70-75 decibels about the equivalent of a lawn mower if you are standing next to it, as do most generators in this class. I could not be more pleased with this generator.

Have had the WGen9500DF generate to cover our sporadic power outages. Had a transfer switch installed into the main breaker panel and connect directly for whole house coverage. Currently running off propane with no issues, gradually working to properly brake in the unit. Love the features but the Data Center screen is difficult to read. It would be an improvement to have a tilting screen so it was easier to read from above.
