Just Right!

My wife and I wanted a reliable generator for power outages and outdoor use. This one is just right for our needs. It will power the major appliances of the house as well as my power tools outside, when needed. It's fairly quiet and has all the options we wanted.

Bought it for its features, DF, Transfer Switch.

I bought this for powering tools and well pump for property we are developing for retirement. It will also serve as a standby emergency generator. Two holes for rubber feet had welding slag in the hole when the nuts were attached. I was able to get one bolt through backwards to clear it but the second one had too much so I had to use a smaller bolt, nut and washers through the existing hole. Other than that, it seems great. I’ll use propane nearly all the time I think.

Starts right up!

I bought the Westinghouse generator for emergency power outages. We have been having outages more often. The generator started right up. Had to use the pull start. Need to figure out why the push start didn’t work. Successful test. Was really hoping for the bonus generator cover, as including the packet of documents.

May work well but only if you have handy man skill

The welded on bolts for the rubber feet were so misaligned they would not work. I had to chisel off the bolts, file the frame smooth, and install them with bolts I purchased. Poor quality control there. Most people would return the unit, unable to install the feet.

Simple, Effective, Trustworthy

I bought my dual fuel two months ago and the very next day we had a storm and it was go time. With a quick release valve already installed on my house propane line, I was able to plug in the hose, switch the breaker over, flip a switch, and hit the remote (yeah, it has a remote!) and was operational in minutes. The coolest part was that I was able to easy wheel it out of my garage with the handle. It is mobile as a two-wheel wheelbarrow, which was awesome because it was the middle of the night and it had to go over some rocks. It is super sturdy. This was my first mobile generator and it was simple to learn. If you are looking at a easy and reliable solution, I would certainly recommend this product.

Works so far

Just bought and did the required prep. Started with remote on gas and propane with no issues. I can’t rate how it will work when needed during a power outage, but so far so good. However, the manual and diagrams to drain the gas does not match my model. I’m still researching on how to drain the carburetor and tank properly.

Started Right Up

I put oil in this generator today, connected the battery terminals, hooked up the propane tank hose and started it up. I don't plan to use it with gasoline unless absolutely necessary. Propane will store long term without concern for breakdown and deterioration unlike gasoline. But I like having the option to run on either in the case of several days without power. I also like the power output potential of this generator. I can use it to run my AC Welding machine with small electrodes.

Very Nice Unit all the bells and whistles

My old generator had done its time. Purchased this one for more power and for all the options. It even has remote start. Also, very important, it is duel fuel. In a power outage gasoline is hard to come by. I always have plenty of propane on hand. It looks like a well built and sturdy unit. Looking forward to years of service.

Just what we needed,

We ordered this and received it just before the February 2022 ice storm here. We got the cord and connections hooked up a few days before it hit. Power was only out for a couple days, but it worked flawlessly. It powered our house and well pump with no problems. We did shut off the water heater, because we ran 2 electric heaters.

Great Generator, highly recommend....

Recently purchased the Westinghouse WGen9500DF. I’m extremely happy with my decision. Came after three days of ordering, well packaged, extremely easy to setup, everything you need is in the box to get you started, just add fuel and it fired right up. It's nice knowing that I have this unit in my back pocket when needed. Exceeded my expectations......
