Nice machine

Just got it and only problem I had was installing feet one bolt hole had slag in the threads and had to retap hole but otherwise started like a dream and quieter than I expected. My old Briggs was loud. Works beautiful. Powers whole house including central ac and pool pump.

Westinghouse WGen9500 generator

I bought this generator before the Florida hurricane season to power up my house when the electricity goes off. It's capable of powering up my HVAC system, refrigerator, internet, some lights, and hopefully the water heater. It has all the features I have been looking for. I did extensive research and selected this generator. The reviews were consistently high for this model.

Meets almost all expectations

I bought this generator as a back-up power supply for my home. Assembly was easy and the included motor oil saved me a trip to the store. I wanted it available for use the next day as a large nor'easter had been predicted but then I read in the owner's manual that it could not be used in the rain or snow. It is also not recommended to be used in a garage or near the house. How am I going to use this as a back-up power source during storms if I can't use it in a storm? Any suggestions?

Well built unit

Purchased unit, delivered on time no pkg damage. Assembly was very easy and straight forward, everything fit together as designed. This unit is a great value for a whole house backup gen to connect to a manual transfer switch. Comes with a battery charger, spark plug wrench, propane hose and regulator, engine oil and funnel and wheel kit which is easy to assemble. Unit is clean, well built and runs well on both LPG and gasoline.

EXTREMELY happy with this generator!

I purchased this new in December 2022, at the recommendation of my in laws. I wanted dual fuel, electric start, and a 50A capability, and this checked all the boxes. Easy unpacking and simple set up. Followed the instructions and it fired up immediately. I've used it for many things, mainly running my home for extended storm related power outages here in Mississippi, and it DOES NOT DISPAPPOINT! Electric start is so nice to have, well labeled control panel, but the most impressive thing about this generator is how easy it rolls!! You'll love it, highly recommend.

Great power unit

I bought this before going on my trip and installed it on the back of my Recreational trailer. My air conditioner units together are about 50 amps. I needed this much power and it delivered the power I needed and then some. I haven't been able to use the propane feature yet but if it powers it as well as the gas section did. I'm sure I won't be disappointed. Also it create any more noise than my last generator did. I'm 64 so I used the crane in the picture to set it up on my rack. Wonderful tool for us older folks.Great Product for sure

New purchase

We just got this generator. It was easy to put together. On its first test it powered 2 refrigerators and a stand up deep freeze without any problem. We fully expect this to be great when needed. This review is given to qualify us for the bonus item of a generator cover.

Great Generator

Bought the Westinghouse 9500DF to run my house for hurricane Ian. I was out of power for 4 days. Great purchase used the Propane setting was flawless, on a 20lb tank was getting 10hrs with a full load. I have two 200amp panels with a 50amp twist lock, ran the whole house all appliances except the two AC units no issues. If you put a hard start on your AC it will run a 3 Ton unit. If your thinking about purchasing this unit, don't hesitate take care of it and it will last.

Easy to setup

We haven't had to use the generator yet, but we did prep it. It is easy to setup. It is a little difficult to install the wheels and I would advise having someone to help. We are using a 50 amp hookup and the cord is very thick. When we try to plug it into the generator, the cord hits the wheel. We are still checking to see if there is a fix for this. Otherwise, it is easy to move and started right away with the electrical start.

GREAT PRODUCT!!

This generator is a good match for the minimum desired load in my home including operating my electric hot water tank and well! For the output, it is compact and easy to move with the wheels and fold down handle. Super easy to set up and start! I am running on LP which keeps it free from gasoline that can go bad when not used. No draining required to put it into storage. However, I like the fact that during a long power outage, I can switch to gasoline if I run out of propane.
