We bought this generator for "just in case" situations of several day power loss.  More of a peace of mind thing than heavy usage.  My husband and oldest son (13) assembled it in minutes.  The only hiccup was connecting the battery which wasn't in the instructions but needed to be done prior to starting the unit.  They briefly charged the battery, hooked up a propane tank and pressed the button.  Started right up and ran for 15 minutes just as a warm up.  They intend to run it each weekend for 15-30 minutes until they reach the 3 hour run-time mark, then change the oil, then store in our garage until it's needed.  So far so good..... 

We purchased this model generator to use as a stand by power source for our home. It runs everything in our home with ease. We have gas appliances. The 9500 DF runs furnace, lights, freezers and refrigerators along with bathroom and ceiling fans. The only thing that makes it flinch is the central air but the AC is not a priority to us. Westinghouse was not even on my radar for a portable generator until I researched deeper. Westinghouse has good reviews, longevity, and competitive prices. The generator runs very well and we are at 5600 feet elevation. The way I understand it, at 3.5% derate per 1000 feet of elevation above sea level the 9500 Watt rated generator is producing an actual Watt rating around 7638 Watts. Even at less than optimal output we can run our home on gas or propane.

The very easy installation just add to my overall satisfaction of this Generator which has everything I ever dreamed off. I used Profane for this Dual Fuel machine for a test run. Could start it from the Remote instantly and run my 4-ton Air Condition without any problem and recharge the starting Battery while it is running. No more to add, it is a wonderful machine.

I bought this in Nov. 2020 with no hassle shipping. I was in Montana when it was delivered and the men that delivered it put it exactly where my brother-in-law ask them to. I got back home middle of January and unpack the generator, followed the instructions, set it up on propane hit the key fob and it cranked the first try and been running great. So proud to have this generator. It has everything I have every wanted.,My Son in Montana knows it will be his when I’m gone to have and have a generator that will run his house if they lose power or anything. For now it will be running our 5th wheel camper when we go out there to visit. I wanted a generator to run on both gas and propane. Love it running on propane. This will last not on me but also my Son and his family for years to come.

Purchased this November 2020, Very easy assembly to install feet and wheels. Happy with the fact that it burns propane and gas. We haven't used it yet but are confident that it will provide us with everything we may need in an emergency. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because we have not used it yet.

Purchased the generator in case of power outages this winter in Texas. Unit had most of the features I desired. Added oil and fuel, fired right up. Break in period not fully completed as of this review. Have only operated unit for 1 hour under a light load according to user manual. Have been pleased so far with operation of generator.

Just purchased, and the installation was very simple, took less then 15min. Fired right up, well built, the option for either gas or Lp is awesome. Remote start is a nice added bonus. Comes with everything you need to start, just add the fuel.

This product was shipped the way I would want it shipped. Assembly could be performed by a competent 12 year old kid. The unit is shipped without oil in the motor and I thought I would need to drive to the store for oil but it's in the box - yea! Additionally, there is a specially shaped funnel included for adding oil. Who else does this? I would suggest making the funnel port as large as possible to allow faster oil filling. The wheels go on without the need for tools which is a great design feature. There are two foot pads which require a wrench and they even supplied a wrench to do that - a rarity indeed. The box even contains a spark plug wrench which has nothing to do with assembly but they even include one of these for a day in the future when the plug will be changed. This is a big motor so electric start is logical over pulling on a rope. it started easily on gasoline and I ran it 5 minutes then shut down and started it with the rope. The choke moves automatically away from the choke position when the engine starts. I ran for ten minutes without issue and shut down. It seems to be a beefy unit and not cheaply made. I had a 45 year career in manufacturing and supplier development for gas and diesel fuel injection product. The cast iron sleeves in the engine cylinder and dual fuel choices was my tie breaker when deciding to buy this Westinghouse unit. I'll look to update after the electrician connects to my circuit breaker panel.

I bought this Generator to feed my entire house. It has more than enough power to feed everything I need. Also a big deciding factor for us was the remote start! We love the remote start because my wife is Pregnant and we have a puppy and she cannot go outside to start it if I’m not around. Now she can be in the house and start it and stop it if need be. Westinghouse with the home run on this product!

Wanted a dual fuel generator to hook up to the house, looked at another brand but bought the 9500DFc generator after reading reviews. Like the features and ease of use, other brand didn't have the outlet covers or gas gauge. Easy to install feet and wheels, will fill the oil and run for break-in in the next few weeks.
