Easy setup and start.

I just received the generator 3 days ago, so I have not been able to give it a thorough test during a power outage. With luck, I won't need to. Unpacking, adding the oil and assembling the legs and wheels and was super easy - if one uses a socket wrench. I recommend that. I read the instructions for starting and after hooking up the propane I tested both electric and manual start. I tried the manual start first and was very pleasantly surprised when the generator started on the first pull. I charged the battery a few hours and then gave the electric start a test. Again, the generator started right up. To test the 120 outlets, I plugged in a leave blower and turned it on and gathered up a pile of leaves. I am very happy that I purchased this model. I will be able to power my whole house during the next outage and that gives me a good sense of security.

Good generator

Finally found time to get the generator put together and it was fairly easy. It is really heavy and had to get it off the ground enough to install the wheels. I am running it with propane and the instructions were easy to understand. Started right off the bat. Remote worked very well also. Nice generator.

Plenty of power

I've been very pleased with this generator. It's definitely a big generator but it's easy to maneuver for how big it is. and also for the size it's pretty quiet. Very easy to assemble. The remote start and dual fuel features are a great plus also. It took about a month to be delivered but I guess that's to be expected.

Hurricane Ground Zero

Not my first Hurricane, not my first Rodeo. Having a good generator is key for living comfortably after the storm. Been without power for 2-3 weeks after some storms. I am happy to finally have duel fuel unit because gasoline can be hard to find after the storm but propane is usually plentiful.

All the Bells and Whistles!

This Westinghouse generator WGen9500DF came with so many options, the electric Push Button start, remote start so I can shut the generator off when I go to bed and turn it back on if the house needs heat or AC during the nite without leaving my bedroom.dual fuel is another great option when gas lines are long I can use propane.Battery charger and battery all included. And a nice warranty.

Runs!

It runs, Its a generator, its supposed to. The remote start is a nice feature that doesn't require yet ANOTHER app on my phone. Easy assembly. Bought for a storm that didn't happen, and hope I don't need to use it this winter, but good to know I have it when needed.

Great features for the price!!

Just purchased my wgen9500dfc and can’t wait to try it out. The features on this unit outweigh the competition by far. Love the fact of the dual fuel because having a 500 gallon propane tank, at my home, will eliminate the need to run get fuel during one of our frequent power outages

Heavy Duty - Exactly as described

Had a couple of smaller generators and upgraded to this specifically because I plan on having a manual transfer switch installed. Ready for hurricane season and any other time we loose power. Will be running the generator today for the first time. Setup was easy and directions were clear.

Perfect home backup generator

I purchased the Westinghouse WGen9500DF generator for home backup power and to run any power tools on our acreage. It always starts every time whether electronically or with the pull start. I have yet to find anything wrong with it, and it’s super easy to transport. The remote start to me is a huge plus. Also the fact that it’s dual fuel and can use propane and gas is perfect for emergencies. We use propane so we can store fuel long term, and also couple it with our large home propane tank. I used it during the last power outage to power our freezer and it went without a hitch. I would recommend this generator to anyone who needs home backup power or any kind of portable usage for power usage.

Solid value, but it’ll wake up the neighbors

The Westinghouse brand proceeds itself, so here’s hoping this has the reliability I’m expecting. But, I’ve only just received my generator. Assembly was simple and straight forward. It started up without any issues and appears to be full of useful features. So far, happy with my purchase.
