I just received the generator this morning. I connected it to a tank of propane, connected the battery and it started right up. I used both the remote control and the push to start button. It has a pull cord but I haven't tried that yet. It also comes with a charger to keep the battery ready to go.

Bought this one to replace my 10-yr old generator. Did a lot of looking and reviewing till I decided to purchase this one. The features and dual fuel was exactly what I wanted. Remote start is an awesome feature. Haven't put it thru the paces yet, but did some test runs and couldn't be happier! Will update after storm season this year.

We live rural in MI. Storms have been bad this year. We ordered this generator on the advise of our electrician installing a transfer switch for us. Glad we did. Right out of the crate it started up and then ran for several days while power was out. No problems

I bought generator to replace a older different manufacturer. It was a quick setup and easy start up . Use it to power up needed house appliances during outages and can also power my welder to use it portable. Looking forward to many years of service

Purchased due to husband on oxygen concentrator and it needs power to run. This is just back up in case our power goes out. We have not set it up yet and need to have someone come to create a plug in so I can just plug it in and start it up. I like the idea of duel fuel, LP or gas. Still need to learn more about it . This review is so I can get a free cover for it

Living in Florida for 25 years and experiencing hurricanes, I have always just dealt with power outages at they happen. I'm finally at a point in life where I can afford a generator and did my research. This thing is sweet! Remote start and stop for when you need silence, because it is loud, it's a generator! You can plug in and trickle charge the battery, which is a nice touch. However, the 8500 wats running in propane is what sold me. It's much easier to store propane long term, than gas (in my opinion). This generator does a whole lot for it's price point.

I live in southeast Texas, where we are no strangers to hurricanes.I looked into all of my options to maintain power when the grid goes down. This dual fuel generator (and an electrical input on my house’s breaker box) was the most cost-effective way to not lose my refrigerator and freezer, as well as be able to power simple devices and portable air conditioner units, all while my neighbors are in the dark. Product has been easy to use, reliable, and effective. Glad I got it!

I bought this unit to replace a smaller 5500 watt unit to power my house when we lose power I am very happy with the purchase Cant wait to lose power to see how well it powers my home I only gave 4 stars because I haven't run it enough top find out if their are any problems.

Have had the WGen9500DF generate to cover our sporadic power outages. Had a transfer switch installed into the main breaker panel and connect directly for whole house coverage. Currently running off propane with no issues, gradually working to properly brake in the unit. Love the features but the Data Center screen is difficult to read. It would be an improvement to have a tilting screen so it was easier to read from above.

I just unpacked my new Westinghouse generator and I’m impressed by the solid construction, large sturdy wheels and handlebar, and control panel design. After last years hurricanes and no power for a week, we decided to pull the trigger and be prepared this year. With any luck, I won’t even have to start it. But I’m ready for the worst.
