Awesome Generator

This thing purrs like mountain lion not a kitten so on a noise level it’s nowhere near as loud as most other portable generators. You can tell it’s well made and it’s comes with a key fob with an electric starter also equipped with manual start. I have the option of running off of propane or fuel. If you need a generator and don’t want spend ridiculous money, buy this!!My home is 2100 sq ft I can run my entire house minus dish washer/washing machine and dryer.

Great Build Quality

Everything is metal, the fuel tank, the control panels, and of course, the frame is all made out of metal. I did extensive research on portable generators and found that the Westinghouse WGen9500DF offered the best value and power output. I wanted the Dual Fuel option because it's easier to store propane long-term rather than gasoline. It provides me options for using this generator mainly when the power goes out. I don't have to worry about keeping my fuel fresh. Aside from the obvious high power capacity of the generator, little touches like having enough clearance to slide an oil pan under the drain plug are huge. Plus, the handle is permanently attached and not an afterthought. It pivots up for easy maneuvering and folds down for storage when not in use. This generator has ample power to run my entire house at less than 50% capacity. That was one of the main selling points was the $'s / generated watt was superior to the others I looked at.

9500 DF Westinghouse Generator

Living in Florida and experiencing hurricane Ian, I will not be without a generator again. After investigating several generators, we decided on this one as it checked all our boxes from gas to propane and should provide comfort in knowing your electric needs are covered.

WGen9500DF

I bought this last week. Very easy to assemble right out of the box. I did it with no assistance. It started up easily. The setup for pairing the FOB was simple. My electrician set up a transfer switch for 50 amps. It worked seamlessly from Power shut off to generator. Very happy so far.

Required assembly was logical.

Have not had opportunity to run it yet. 1.1 Liter bottle of oil supplied only filled it to "Low" mark on dipstick. Having generator be level looks to be important when checking oil as dipstick is on one side of engine block, and not centered in the middle. Pretty confident just from assembly that generator should work well.

SOLID FEATURES

This unit was in superb condition out of the box, having had to return the first one because of a cross-threaded oil drain plug which leaked oil. All components appear to be in good order. Instructions are well organized for a quick assembly of wheels and remote pairing, and startup.

More than I expected

Just got this. Nice packing. Many more features than I expected for the price. Great instructions. Easy to set up. Hooked to LP tank and fired right up. Really low running sound compared to my old smaller gas one. Easy and light to move with the large wheels and padded handle. Now I cant wait for a power failure.

Great generator, would recommend

We bought this generator last month as an upgrade to our old Cat 5500. We are installing a transfer switch on our house and needed more power. This thing is great - remote start, electric start, dual fuel - it has all the bells and whistles and runs smoothly and quieter than the last one we had. Great product - would recommend to anyone looking to updgrade.

9500DF

I just recieved my generator and was easy to put together. Ran for about an hour on propane and sounded great. Waiting for electrician to come and install what I need on the house. This was out of stock and when it came back in I ordered it and the next day it was out of stock again. Glad I purchased when I did instead of waiting a day.

Will sleep better having it

The generator appears a little overwhelming if you never had a generator previously since it has a number of connections and plugs. However, the directions were very clear, all the necessary tools and accessories were included, and although the generator is very heavy it is made to maneuver easily. Although I have not needed to use it as of yet, it started easily after following the directions.
