A Real Life Saver!

I bought this generator at the end of May to replace an older generator that was no longer working. I purchased with the hurricane season in mind. This week, we were hit by Hurricane Ida leaving us without power for 6 days. Thanks to this generator we were able to maintain our refrigerator and keep cool with window units. Each tank of gas lasted 12-14 hours. I don't think we would have survived this record heat without this generator!

Very Impressed with Unit

I purchased the 9500DF unit for power backup in our home. Unit arrived in good condition, easy to assemble and move around after assembly. I plan to use propane mostly to avoid the extra maintenance of gasoline in the carburetor. I connected a 15 lb propane tank, the unit started immediately with the remote. I purchase a 13' 6-gauge extension cord and connected it to a 50 amp outside outlet. Generator ran fine with an electrical load, very pleased with unit so far.

Great Features, Well Made!!

I bought this unit as it is Dual Fuel, it has good reviews and am able to run 50 amp cord (not included) directly to my house panel through new installed 50 amp inlet. Hooked up to propane tank and started immediately through electric start key fob. ran for 30 minutes perfectly. A great unit for our Hurricane outages!.

Easy start up

Just opened it and the instructions were very clear and easy to follow. The quick start guide is very helpful. The user manual comes in English, Spanish and French. It is also very detailed and thorough. It even comes with a parts breakdown and electrical schematics. Overall very pleased with my purchase and I would buy again.

Great Generator

I bought this generator a few weeks ago for my food truck I'm building. I highly recommend the dual fuel models for a food truck, it makes life a lot easier being able to run it off the same propane as my cooking equipment. I'm also a big fan of the remote start.

Solid well built

Just purchased, took me 15 minutes to set up and test run on propane. This will be plumbed for Natural Gas shortly, and become my homes backup power source. Just based on how easy it was to set up, I have high confidence in its ability to keep my home and shop running.

It does it all!

We are so happy we purchased this generator. It offers either gas or propane to run it off of. I would say to keep in mind if you temps run below 20 degrees to make sure you use a different oil than the one it came with. And never shut it down with anything electronic plugged into to it. Once again it is all in the manual. It is a wonderful purchase.

Bought it for its features, DF, Transfer Switch.

I bought this for powering tools and well pump for property we are developing for retirement. It will also serve as a standby emergency generator. Two holes for rubber feet had welding slag in the hole when the nuts were attached. I was able to get one bolt through backwards to clear it but the second one had too much so I had to use a smaller bolt, nut and washers through the existing hole. Other than that, it seems great. I’ll use propane nearly all the time I think.

Well Built Generator with Dual Fuel Flexibility

Bought this on the advice of an electrician to be prepared for hurricane season in Florida. While we have not been hit by a storm (yet), we have plugged this generator into a home transfer switch and it has easily powered everything in the home (with the lone exception being a 5 ton air conditioner) using either gasoline or propane. The included remote is a great accessory. The generator is very well built and I look forward to many years of use.

Westinghouse 9500/8500 watt duel fuel generator

We live in Florida near the coast, so naturally a generator is a good insurance policy. We purchased a Westinghouse WGen 9500DFc. I had read fantastic reviews about the generator and the Westinghouse brand. This machine is as sturdy as they come. It's a relatively quiet operation, easy start and the duel fuel is a huge plus. If needed, we can use gas for a little extra power, but propane is a great back up plan. I love the push button start/stop since I'm a little older and rip cords/cranks are a bit much.
