Researched many different makes and models and decided on this Westinghouse 9500DF. Great machine so far. Followed the quick start, bolted the rubber feet and wheels on, filled it with the included oil, hooked the battery plug up. I am currently trying just propane as my house uses it, I hooked a tank up, flicked the on switch and pressed start. Third try it fired up and ran like a charm, not even that loud considering the output. Very pleased so far.

I like the Gen but have an issue with the quick start up instructions. The instructions did not mention connecting the quick disconnect for the battery . I had to troubleshoot to get the electric start to work. The quart of oil was not enough to fill the machine to the proper level per the instructions. It is louder then expected.

I bought this GEN, tree years ago and not had to use in an emergency yet. Sitting here in Florida just west of Daytona 9OCT24 waiting for Hurricane Milton to hit. Hope I will not have to use the GENERATOR. But if I do. I have tested on the reg. and runs just fine except, for the RPM is not steady. It's a slight drop in RPM. I've tried it with and without a (light} load. It is the same. I run non-ethanol fuel only. I haven't tried propane as of yet. But I do like the GEN. It cranks up every time I test run it. It some what quit. And I like having a remote. I wish more details. But maybe after the hurricane.

I finally had a chance to try out the generator and it worked great. Gas lasted longer than I thought it would, conversion to propane was quick and easy. Remote start was really great since I was using it on a Jobsite and didn’t need to keep it running all of the time, only when I was running saws and the compressor. I would have given 5 stars if I didn’t need to drill out the axle holes to get the wheels on. The powder coating had made them a hair too small for the axles to go through.

I just purchased the Wgen9500DFc. It’s a very nice generator. Electric start is much appreciated. I had a little trouble getting it running with propane initially but I let it sit overnight and it started and ran fine today. I need to test it under load, but this has to wait for a few days.

I was in need of a heavy duty generator, and the first thing in my mind was Westinghouse. I've always known about them for years, and knew they were top notch. Couldn't be more happier with my purchase. When I lose power, it handled everything in the house with no problem. Was pleased with the gas consumption. For such a big generator, it used very little. Also have the iGen2200 for smaller jobs. Was very happy with my purchase. Thanks Westinghouse, keep it up with your fine company !!!

So far so good. Have only got thru the 5 hour break in period so far. Hooked up to my house through a 50a inlet box with an Interlock kit in the main box. Ran the whole house on Propane including the 4-ton AC in a short test run. My furnace did show a error code, but continued to run. Fingers crossed there. The remote start is a neat feature, 200lbs isn't terrible, dual fuel is great! Hope to never run it on Gas. I hope to update later after YEARS of use.

Right out of the box this generator started right up and began doing what it was designed to do! Attach the wheels, add oil, gas source, and it starts working. Best generator on the market. Exceptional build quality and user Friendly interface makes this generator so easy to use. Couldn't be happier with this purchase.

I just purchased it so I have not yet had an opportunity to use it during a power outage but the generator started right up in both gas and propane mode. It is heavy but very solidly built. When running it, it was actually a bit quieter than I expected for its size and capacity. I would have to agree with a number of other reviews that I previously read that the plastic wheels might need to eventually be replaced. So far I am very impressed.

So far the customer service has been very good. I purchased a smaller unit initially and returned it for this larger one and there were no hastles with the return. The 9500DF machine is well-built and has many nice features, but when I purchased it I did not realize I need to retrofit it with a high-altitude kit if over 2000' in elevation. I can make that retrofit no problem, but one of the two parts is out of stock. Hopefully this gets resolved quickly.
