Very Nice Jenny

Setting up was simple. I had to manually move the choke lever even though it supposed to do it on its own when using electric start. Maybe it'll choke automatically next time, but not a big deal. It fired right up and also worked with the remote. It's about as noisy as my 5,000 running watt Coleman, so not too bad. I tested the 30 amp outlet and it worked fine. I also have a 50 amp breaker back feeding to main panel with a manual interlock. I haven't tried it yet cause it's pouring our way. All in all, I'd recommend this to my friends.

VERY PLEASED SO FAR!

Generator arrived yesterday & I was pleased to see that oil was included and so was propane tank accessory hose. Connected to standard grill propane tank easily. Also included is battery charger. Attaching feet & wheels was simple enough. Wireless remote was already paired with generator. Removable filter screen in gas tank is a very useful feature. Unit started easily with rope, remote, and push-button. Switched from propane to gasoline while running and only slight engine hesitation during transition. Operation Manual is easy to understand and thorough. If this unit holds up over time, I will be extremely satisfied with purchase.

Power on a budget

I was excited to try this out as soon as I got it out of the box. With minimal assembly, adding fluids and attaching the battery, I had it up and running in less than 30 minutes. This unit has enough power for me to use everything that I need in my house to get through any emergency. Hurricane season, bring it on! We are ready for you

Great Product and Support

The WGen9500DF arrived well packaged and appears to be quality constructed. There was very little assembly and the tools needed to complete the assembly are included in the packaging. In addition to the large wheels there is a very nice size built-in rubber grip handle for easy portability. The product is full of other great features and the enclosed user manual in the packaging is very through. Westinghouse customer support was superb on several pre-sales phone calls I had before my purchase. I felt confident enough in the Westinghouse brand, customer support and product warranty that I purchased two WGen900DF, one for me and one for my parent.

Well made, well built, versatile unit

Recently purchased as an upgrade to my iGen2200 to better power our whole house and while 7500 watts would have been suitable I was able to purchase this 9500 watt version around the same price so it was an easy decision. Just a great all around machine. Fuel options, power out options, starting options, monitoring options, etc. Heavy but moves easily with large wheels and a well placed handle. A bit louder that I expected, but typical of the breed, and wish there was an easier option for an exhaust extension for running inside the garage for security purposes and for the neighbors sake with the exhaust noise. No knock on the unit itself, just things I'd prefer. All in all I am very happy with this one.

It works with propane and runs good.

Cannot get it to start with Gas. Gas is going to Carb , but will not start. This was bought in 2021 Oct. but never tried to start and run with Gas. I suspect there is trash in carb from factory. It would get at least 4 stars if it was not for that. Now I have to fix a brand new motor. Just what I needed to do.

Perfect for my needs

I looked at several generators and this had everything I needed. Duel fuel was a real selling point. I talked to several people who install generators and decided on the Westinghouse. Instructions for set up were easy to follow and had no problems.

Hurricane Season Generator

My wife and I purchased this dual fuel generator to be prepared for Hurricane Season down here in Southeast Louisiana. Luckily, we have not had to use it yet, but this generator is powerful enough to power our whole home in the event of a power failure. We are glad that we ordered and received the generator in a timely manner! Hopefully, we will be protected from any storms this Hurricane Season and will not need to use it! However, knowing we have it puts our minds at great ease!

Excellent product, great price.

I purchased the WGen9500DF to power my 50-amp travel trailer. I was very pleased with the minimal assembly and easy start-up, fresh out of the box. I enjoy the dual fuel option, and the remote start is an added bonus. I am really looking forward to putting this product to use this summer.

Start-up

Today I put the oil into the generator so I can start it up. I followed the instructions for using a propane cylinder. Using the remote fob first, it started almost immediately. Then I tried the push button on the generator and again it started right up. What was really surprising as my wife noticed, that it is quieter then we expected. She went into the house and with the bedroom window closed she said it is quieter then the snow blower! Very satisfied.
