Well built with great workmanship

Seems to be a strong well built unit. Solid with clean edges, clean welds, no scratches. Overall a great looking unit. Runs well. Starts remote or push button. I bought this because I am getting older and in Florida it is only when, not if we get another hurricane. This should start easier and run most of the house including AC. That alone is worth the cost of up sizing to this generator. It was a great price really for what it says it can do. I hope it performs as well during the next storm as it appears to now.

Best Generator

I bought the WGEN9500DF because of the frequent power outage we have in my area. This generator is awesome, very powerfull (can almost power the whole house except for the electrical furnace and hot tub) Very easy to assemble (took about 15 min), very easy to start, very easy to move, I love it!!! Can't wait for the next power outage. Also, I had a question about the oil that I should use so I called the customer service. I was able to talk to someone in less than 5 min. That is also very nice

Liked the Duel Fuel Choice and the Remote Control.

I received the generator in June of 2024 and as of this date I have not had to use it but the Quality is excellent, Assembly was minimal and very easy, Duel Fuel (Propane & Gas) was a major reason for my purchase, Power range is what I wanted and the price was very competitive . I'm certain that if I need to use the generator i will not be disappointed.

I made the right choice!

I came very close to purchasing a less expensive, gasoline generator last week. In fact, if they hadn't been out of stock, I probably wouldn't be leaving this review. I cannot begin to tell you how glad I am that they were. My new WGen9500DF is absolutely amazing. The quality and features of this generator are second to none. The dual fuel option is an absolute must if like me, you're purchasing a generator as part of your emergency preparedness plan. I'm a retired Firefighter with 37 years of service. I thought about getting a generator many times, but never seemed to get around to it. The events of the last few months have made me realize that a quality, reliable generator is a must to help ensure the health and safety of those you love.

So far good

This is our first generator purchase. I'm pleased that it was easy to set up and started right away using the start button and the remote starter. Haven't tried the pull yet . I also like the option of being able to use gas or propane. Almost anxious for an actual power outage to give it a real test run.

Wow! Great value for the price

I could not be more pleased with my Westinghouse 9500DF generator. I looked at a lot of top brands but this generator has every feature that I wanted and more. The remote start is the icing on the cake. It's easy to operate if you read the instructions carefully. It even includes its own oil and oil spout so that you don't spill the oil when filling it. As for noise level, I measured it at 82.5 decibels from ten feet away, but only 58 decibels from inside my home. It started immediately when I first used it. Although it weighs over 200 pounds the single piece handle makes it very easy to move around. One hint: save the white closed cell foam pad that is in the shipping carton. Place it under the unit when you turn it on its side to assemble the wheels and mounting feet. That will prevent the unit when getting scratches on it. Also, when you initially fill the oil, the oil level on the dipstick will barely touch the hash mark at the low end of the dipstick. Don't worry, it's full. Once to start the engine the oil will rise to the top of the dipstick.

Easy Setup

Generator was very easy to set up and started immediately on the first attempt. I plan to have a transfer switch installed to connect to my home’s power panel. My only issue is that the manual references a eco mode switch that I have been unable to locate.

Awful packaging

I received the 9500DF yesterday badly damaged, no owners manual/quick start guide. The packaging cardboard was underweight and there was NO molded styrofoam to protect vital generator components. The box was barely hanging on to the generator with one strap; not attached to a pallet.

WGen 9500DFc Great Features

I bought the 9500DFc a month ago and I am very happy that I did. The generator started up on the first try. I like the four 120 volt AC 20 amp, the 120/240 volt AC 30 amp, and the 120/240 volt AC 50 amp receptacles the 9500DFc model comes with. In addition, the duel fuel (gasoline or propane) feature provides options for how to run the generator. The remote starter is also a nice added feature.
