Starts easily!

I bought this generator to replace a 20 year old Onan portable generator I use for back up power to my house. I run off propane so I don't have to worry about gasoline going bad or the carburetor gumming up. I got it out of the box. filled up the oil, connected the propane line and turned on the propane tank. I tried the remote control first and it started right up on the second try and ran it to get warm then stopped it with the remote. Waited a few minutes then tried starting it with the start button on front panel and it started right up. Let it run a few minutes then stopped it with the front panel start/stop button. I am impressed with its performance right out of the box. The remote is a nice feature too.

Tired of PGE power outage
5 out of 5 stars review

Very Happy with my purchase

I purchased the Westinghouse WGen 9500DF as an more powerful upgrade to my existing generator due to more frequent power outages here in California. My wife could not start our existing pull start generator so the electric start option is great. Dual fuel option was a must for me as I don't like storing large quantities of gasoline from a fire safety standpoint. Easy to operate and is 2.5 more powerful than my existing portable generator at the same size and weight. Really like the quick disconnect battery option and included battery charger to ensure I am ready to go when needed. Very happy with this purchase.

Power, Strength & Portability

We purchased this product to use as a backup power source, and we couldn't be happier with the peace of mind in knowing we have this reliable piece of equipment. The WGen9500DF offers versatility, excess power and a layer of convenience that exceeds other manufacturers (e.g. remote control start). Thank you, Westinghouse!

Great Features!!

I received this a few weeks ago. It was in excellent condition. The unit assembled as instructed and the instructions were very good. The unit started and ran well. I have only used it for approximately 10 minutes so far and all appears to be good. I am pleased with all the features it comes with. I would definitely recommend it so far!

Very Satified Customer

I've owned multiple generators over the years but this one is by far the most superior generator I've ever bought. The dual fuel option along with the remote start make it in my option the top of the line option available to purchase for home emergency power. I highly recommend to anyone unsure which option to go with if you are searching for a stand by generator.

Great Generator

I bought this to replace a generator that did not have the capacity that my whole house needed. It was a bonus that a dual fuel generator was available a price point that met with the current economy. Knowing that I have extended power via the dual fuel capacity gives me a peace of mind during the most extreme weather.

Great design.

I bought the 9500 DFc generator 3 weeks ago, it’s simple to assemble in just minutes, hooked up the propane and it started up right away . I was very satisfied with how quiet it was, hooked up the air compressor and it ran great. Can’t wait to hook it up to a manual transfer switch, no more power outages for me.

Top Quality Unit

Decided after the Texas deep freeze we experienced in Feb I never want to be without power again. So glad I purchased the Westinghouse 9500DF. It is perfect to power my whole house and is top quality. Well constructed, heavy duty, and easy to use.

Reliable and the power needed.

This generator started up easy right out of the box. Now it starts immediately each time I get it out to use it. I like the push button start so my family doesn’t have to pull the manual start if I’m gone. The options are great as I can also power my RV with the 50 amp outlet. It’s still in the break in period so I haven’t had it above 50% of its capacity but the power is all I need. Great product.

Fast Delivery

I only ordered this generator last Wednesday evening and it arrived at my residence on Friday afternoon. Although I still need to buy fuel to test it, everything appears to be in perfect shape and I am expecting great results. This replaces an old single fuel 6250 watt generator of another brand I purchased about 16 years ago to get us through power outages in our neighborhood that can sometimes last up to three or four days. The old generator has quit working, so I decided to upgrade with a new one. This generator should be more powerful and I like the fact it has a duel fuel feature and remote start. Once I've actually had a chance to successfully test it thoroughly, I can revise the rating to 5 stars.
