Best generator I've ever owned!

This generator is amazing. It has its own battery charger and I keep it plugged in all the time. It can use gas or propane. I like using propane. It's cheaper, cleaner, and so easy to tell when I'm low on propane. I always keep an extra bottle of propane handy, and have never run out. It also has a remote starter and I use it all the time. This is a great product!!!

Checks all the boxes!

I bought this generator to use as a full house backup power solution. I did a LOT of research on portable generators and nothing compared to this one when it came to features for the price combined with positive reviews. This generator had everything I was looking for including 12000 peak watts, around 10,000 running watts, dual fuel capability and a pushbutton start. It even came with one feature I wasn't looking for - the remote start capability. That's a nice to have feature that wasn't a requirement, but will certainly be nice to have. I also liked that it came with everything needed right out of the box, including oil with a funnel and a propane hose.

Peace of mind

Bought the dual fuel generator for security and peace of mind we can weather any storm and power outage that comes our way. I can crank it with the push button start without waiting on husband to crank it. Hope this will last for years. Feels solid and well made!!

Quiet and Powerful

Purchasing a generator is quite a learning experience if you don't know much. The generator was the easy part, I knew I wanted dual fuel and something that can run the major items in my home. This generator was a great fit. I had it up and running in about 30 min with gas. I will update the post when I can test with the propane.

East set up

Very simple set up, comes with everything you need except fuel. Started right up. I havent had enoough time to run test for duration but will update once I put it through a weekend of use. Would be 5 stars except the machine is louder than I anticipated.

Great generator

This generator exceeded my expectation for a backup power source for my home. Living in Florida you need to prepare for hurricanes. Having duel fuel, push / remote start capabilities is a game changer . I have piece of mind knowing I have the WGen9500df as my back up generator.

Love that it is Dual hookup!

We were experiencing lots of power issues in our area as the bugs had got into the Ash trees here and when they tress would fall they were taking down the power line causing power outages. Every other day our power was going out. Our old generator we had took a dump so we had to purchase a new one. Found the Westinghouse WGEN9500DF and read the people's reviews and found all positive reviews and decided to give it a whirl. We love that we can hook it up to Propane. Doesn't gunk up the carburetor! It burns clean and it's not as loud as our last one! We love it and definitely recommend it.

Great Features & Great Value

We recently bought a new home which already had a transfer switch installed for the specific WGen9500DF I purchased. The previous owner kept the WGen9500DF he had the home wired for and I was pleased to learn it provided sufficient power for all of the necessities in the event of a storm, i.e., HVAC, Stove/Oven, Refrigerator and lighting. I hope we never have to use it in the event we need it, but I am comfortable it will meet our needs in the event of a hurricane or other power outage.

Dual and Plenty of Power

We chose the WGen9500DF generator for our 3000+ s.f. home in central NH because of our experience with unpredictable winter storms. We wanted a generator with dual power (gas and propane) we can rely on and this Westinghouse is a good bet for a great value! We feel prepared for this and future seasons!

Ready for next power outage!

I have a large home, and I wanted a portable solution for powering only the essentials during the next outage. This generator is perfect for my needs! Powerful enough to run more than the average generator and dual fuel offers flexibility. 50A output is great for connecting my main panel via interlock. Westinghouse includes several small things that make this product stand out such as a battery charger and funnel for oil fill. Outages seem to be more frequent now, and I feel much more comfortable knowing I'm prepared.
