Wish I had one sooner

Nice and cost-effective alternative to paying thousands for a larger stand-by generator with installation costs. Large enough to run much of what you need during an extended power outage. Dual fuel option allows flexibility to run on gasoline or propane, which allows you to run longer before running out of stored fuel. After living through hurricanes Ike and Harvey, I wish I had one of these sooner.

Good starter

I unboxed it, I put The wheels on and then it started right up. I started it with gas then I started it with the propane then I paired the remote starter pad pretty easy right now I'm looking forward to using it for power outage and recreational purposes.

Works Flawlessly!

My brother had purchased this as a Christmas present and due to Hurricane Ian coming through, we had lost power. It worked perfectly as expected and maintaining it was extremely easy, I was surprised how little gas it consumed, for the course of 9 hours and it was not depleted yet. This pulled through for my wife and I where we could run our AC unit, refrigerator, chest freezer and lights in the house at once. Thank you for making an overall Ace product!

All the features I was looking for.

So far so good, generator fired right up. I've only ran it for a little while but all seems good so far. The remote start works great, as well as the push button start. The generator is very loud compared to the smaller generators out there, especially the inverter style, but that's too be expected. For 1k I can't think of a better deal out there. It's loud but puts out 9500w at 240v, enough to keep my fridge and furnace running during power outages.

Great Value

After looking at several other brands, Westinghouse offers a great product for the money. It is well built and the warrantee is even longer than another brand that I was looking at. I bought it for power failures and this should run my whole house, (electric hot water heater and well pump). It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Great Features and Easy Set Up

I bought this as an emergency generator when the power goes out. I showed it to my friend who is an electrician and said it is a nice unit. He is wiring a transfer panel for me for this generator. It will allow me to run the necessary things in our house without the worry of packing up and going to a hotel.

A superb product!

It took over a month to get here. Once it finally arrived (no thanks to Home Depot) it was easily assembled and fired up on the first push of the START button. No shaking or stuttering, and about as loud as the average lawn mower. It seems to be quite well made and the instructions are easy to understand. It would be nice if it came with the proper amount of oil (it takes a little more than the quart they provide) but it was good enough to get started. Inasmuch as the WGEN9500DF powers everything but my 60K BTU central air, I can say that I am completely satisfied with my purchase.

Can't wait to pit it to the test!

Living in Florida means hurricanes that usually come with power failure. After the last batch of back to back storms our generator decided to stop generating. Not what anyone needs!! Did the research and the Westinghouse Wfen9500DF stood out from the others. Love the dual fuel option and of course the remote start key fob. Set in up with ease thanks to the great instructions in the manual and ran it for the 5 hour break in period since there may be yet another storm aiming at us for next week. Planning on having this one wired into the electrical panel so no more extension cords!! The only downside to this generator is that it is very noisy. But won't care too much when we have our next power outage.

VERY nice features and POWERFUL!

I was a little concerned with the condition the box arrived in and the damage to some of the bars on the one side of the generator, but after adding the oil and connecting the propane tank, this thing fired right up with no problems. The remote start is nice, just not sure how much use that will actually get. Im hoping this thing lasts for years, and it should based on my experience with another westinghouse generator.

Perfect to "plug and play" with my 50amp inlet.

I wired my house with a 50amp generator inlet box and this generator is perfect for handling my ceiling fans, interior outlets, refrigerators, TV, and my a/c. I'm sure I can turn off my a/c and run the hot water heater for a couple of hours, turn that breaker off, and use the dryer if needed before turning the a/c back on. Perfect power for my 960 sq. ft. double wide mobile home in Florida. The biggest issue I always have where I am located, is extended power outages with hurricanes. This generator is the answer. Very pleased with my trial runs with both LP gas and gasoline. Love the dual fuel option!
