I purchased this generator two weeks ago, and it's already in my little generator house, and ready for winter. I am so amazed how many wonderful features this generator has. It can run on propane or gas, comes with a battery and battery maintainer, and believe it or not, a remote starter!! I am going to love that feature. The set-up was easy, and the operator's manual is the best manual I've ever seen. It has great instructions, and it's full of excellent pictures and diagrams - it has pictures and descriptions of everything you need to know along with step-by-step instructions that are in "large print" for older eyes like mine. This unit is well made and well designed. All of the features, that need to be accessed frequently, are located on the front of the generator including the oil drain and the crankcase where the oil is filled. A funnel, to add the oil, was even included. I live in a very wooded area in North Idaho and get a lot of cold weather and several feet of snow. Our electricity goes out often in the winter because of the trees falling over the power lines. It's predicted that this winter is going to be a doozey. This year, with my Westinghouse WGen 9500DF generator, I'll be ready for it.

Very easy to set up. Note that that manual is incorrect with how to hook up the battery....it is way easier than the manual says. Just plug two cords together and boom...done. IT IS HEAVY! Make sure you are using this on a level hard surface. I can't imagine trying to pull this through dirt or soggy lawn after a storm. But its weight makes it feel sturdy and well constructed. Also nice to be able to use propane in a sealed tanks vs gas-can gasoline going bad.

Great out of the box. The directions were, in my opinion, a bit over complicated. I realize people will use any excuse to sue a corporation for any reason, but the safety warnings are too much. Started up without issue. I really like how the tools needed to complete the set up are provided.

Packing was perfect. Good looking Workmanship. Set up was easy following the easy to read instructions. Filled the engine with the included oil, added gas and connected LP. Set fuel selector for gas, Followed starting instructions then Pushed the electric start button and engine fired right up. Connected a couple electrical tools to see what the generator would act like under a load and everything operated perfectly. While the generator was running on gas I switched the fuel switch to LP and without any loss of power it was running on the LP. Then switched the fuel back to gas and it was again back to running on gas. So easy to switch fuels while it is running. The easy starting will be a blessing when the power goes out to soon.

Installed the wheels, added engine 0il, connected the LP hose and tank, and hit the start button. Fired up perfectly right out of the box-the battery was even fully charged! This is a very well thought out generator, which was delivered even with a battery tender that I was not expecting, but would have bought on my own, for a standby generator. Well done , Westinghouse!!!

The WGen9500DF Dual Fuel Portable Generator is an outstanding choice for reliable and versatile power. With the ability to run on both gasoline and propane, it offers great flexibility for various situations. Its 9,500-watt starting capacity ensures it can easily handle heavy-duty appliances and tools. The electric start and long runtime add to its convenience, making it perfect for both home use and outdoor activities. We are extremely happy with our purchase and highly recommend this generator for anyone in need of dependable power.

I bought this for a couple of different uses that fit the functions of this generator. Packaging was intact, and did not have any bumps or scuffs once opened. It have a very robust presentation with easy to follow guides and instructions to get it running for the first time. I was able to assemble it and give it a test run within 30 minutes of opening the box. If you're interested in getting a generator that can run home appliances during power outages I recommend this generator.

I have thoroughly researched the purchase of this generator. Westinghouse Wgen9500df was the clear winner. I am not disappointed. It is extremely well built and everything is right in front of you. Although heavy, the wheel system and handle make it a breeze to move around. I could not be happier. Thank you!

Bought this generator for a backup power for my house. Unit came with every single piece of information your could ever need from getting warranty registered, parts break downs ect. I work for a rental company and have seen lots of new generators come in and only send little to no info. Goes to show they back there product and want to help the customer.

I bought this generator after snowmegeddon left us without power for several days. I read through tons of reviews on a lot of different generators and decided on this one for my needs. It will run everything in my house except the central electric heater as it is a 60a breaker. It will run a 3.5 ton central AC, 12,500 BTU window unit and misc items around the house all at the same time or multiple space heaters for the winter. It satisfies my needs for what I intend to use it for, will also be of great use working away from readily available power source for the welder, saws etc. That all being said, it is loud. It will definitely disturb your neighbors, for this I intend to build a baffle box with ample ventilation to dampen the sound. For this reason I would not recommend this generator for RV'ing, however for backup home use it will work great and is a much cheaper option than the standby generators.
