We comfort and now have confidence we will have a reliable back if web lose power for an extended period. The Westinghouse 9500 Generator will power our essential need during an outage. Easy to install. Easy to use. Push button start/stop, key phob for remote start/stop. This generator, the house name and quality of Westinghouse give us assurance and a level of confort that we arw ready and prepared for protection during an extended power outage. An aside, it is portable and available for family outing and camp outs.

I hesitate to leave a review after only owning something for a few days because the thing could break tomorrow. That said, so far this generator is impressive. I've fired it up a couple times and put some small loads on it and it didn't miss a beat. It runs smooth and my 21 gallon 120 volt 20 amp air compressor did not make this thing bog down when it kicked in and started running. I love the dual fuel option but haven't tried the propane yet. Easy to assemble and quick to get up and running. Sound is equivalent to others in this class and I thought was acceptable. Not too heavy and fairly easy to move around. The only issue, and it may not really be one, is the rated THC of less than 23%. I assume the 23% is the max running at capacity and if only pulling 5k watts this may be much lower. How much? I wish I knew. But there are ways to to accommodate this when plugging in sensitive electronics. All in all I definitely recommend this generator. Time will tell how long it will last, but so far so good.

I have yet to use the generator. I have not finished unpacking it yet too. All seems to be as ordered. Delivery was 9 days sooner than expected. The driver moved it into my shed for me-very nice and helpful. Leaving a review to get a cover is a nice touch. It's a shame that I will have to return the cover I bought, thoug....

We were without power from a recent ice storm. I purchased this unit to hook up to my house. I chose the dual fuel model and have hooked the unit up to propane. All the instructions were very clear and I was able to get it started using the remote control the first time. Very pleased with the product!

This thing is a beast! I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this unit. The assembly instructions were clear and to the point. I had the assembly completed and was up and running for the break in period right away. I plugged in a larger commercial fan to help cool the unit while running and wasn’t able to make the generator labor even from full “off” to “full high”.

Just started yesterday. Initially, I forgot to open the fuel valve, went back to the manual and locate it; no problem. This is a very smooth machine. All controls and warnings are marked very well. It is heavier than it looks in the videos. I will need somebody to help me to move the machine to the site where I am going to keep it. Looking forward to a power cut now.

This generator allows me to be ready for hurricane season without needing to worry about gasoline. The LP option allows us to use the propane tanks we have for our grill as well as the larger propane tanks for our RV to provide reliable power with none of the storage hazards with gasoline. We dont have to worry about gasoline "going bad" either.

I just bought this generator to handle the northern California blackouts that PG&E is creating to mitigate wildfires. I like having the option of using propane or gas, but I am having problems starting the generator. I'll have it hooked up to start with propane and the gen will crank but not start. So far I can only get it to start if I turn the selector switch to gasoline, try to start it, then switch back again to propane. I'm not sure why this happens and hope to fix it soon. Other than that, the gen works well, especially since I also need it to run the well pump. Lights will flicker a little when something big comes online, but that little inconvenience is nothing compared to not having power or water. I also like the easy connection for charging the battery. The generator feels like a solid, quality product and (unfortunately) I will be getting a lot of use out of it.

Purchased this unit in Dec. it arrived strapped on a pallet that was nice in its own right. The unit was nicely packaged. It took around 15 minutes to install wheels, plug up battery, etc. Put some 100% gas in and she fired up and ran about 15 minutes. Everything functioned just as it should. Now we have a little piece of mind

After a series of storms caused extended power outages in my area I decided to get a portable generator large enough to run my entire house. The 9500 DF has sufficient power to meet my needs. The dual fuel option is a great selling point and this appears to be a well made machine,
