Easy to start, easy to connect!

I bought this about 2 months ago so that I can connect it to a transfer switch that was installed on my house. Easy to start, easy to connect. Powered the whole house (thought the load was reduced on purpose). Dual fuel is a dream for a stand by generator since you don’t have to worry about a gummed up engine that has been stored all winter.

Solid Machine

I bought this before the hurricane season started and boy am I glad I did! I was a little reluctant to purchase this size because of the weight and bulkiness. Westinghouse scored on this production as they thought of most every detail before producing.

Plenty of power

I bought this generator first because it was American made and dual fuel which gives me twice the runtime without refueling since I can switch fuels gasoline and propane on the fly. This is very easy to do especially for my wife when I am not at home. The remote start feature is great for her on a cold day when all she has to do is flip one switch to use the other fuel

Great value and dependable

Recently purchased the WGen9500DFc and I am extremely satisfied with its performance. It was easy to set up and started on the first try. The power output is impressive, has provided reliable electricity for my home during outages and in N CA it happens often. I love that it has a remote start and stop feature. The durable construction and user-friendly controls make it a great investment. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a dependable generator!

Great features & easy set up

The generator and accessories arrived in perfect condition. The included plastic pad made it easy to tip the unit on its side to attach the wheels and rubberized supports. Then, the long folding handle made it easy to bring up the steps and onto the back porch! The instructions are very clear and it came with everything needed, including a power supply to charge the starting battery, propane hookup, and a fob for remote start. It even came with oil and a funnel! I like how it can run off gasoline or propane as we have both on hand, this being a somewhat rural area. I purchased a 14-50P (50A RV) to 4x120V 20A adapter. This is perfect as there are 4 areas in the house requiring power. One of the two GFI outlets will be available for the livestock water tank de-icer and I appreciate the safety factor. The maintenance schedule is reasonable although checking valve clearance after 100 hours of use (or every 6 months) seems a bit frequent. 100 hours is only 4 days, 4 hours, and power outages in this region have gone this long before. However, checking/adjusting valve clearance is very clearly stated in the manual. If you have a feeler gauge and torque wrench it should be no problem.

Great Features

I bought this to power my house during outages. I read a lot of reviews, watched youtubers put it through its paces, and compared it to other models. I also had a neighbor that has a similar model and was very happy with it. I have not been disappointed as this generator is easy to operate and has excellent features such as propane and gas options, multiple outlets, and a remote starter. It almost makes me almost wish for a storm

Powerful reliable easy to operate WGEN9500DF

Purchased after hurricane passed over, was easy to follow instructions and prepped generator wgen9500DF for use with propane. The large no flat tires and properly weighted frame make it easy to maneuver. Pleased with purchase and feel more secure with the generator.

Love the flexibility and ease of use!!!

I bought this generator a couple weeks ago prepapring for the Florida hurricane season. Extremely easy to set up and get going. The electric and remote start work great, and the back up pull star is still an easy pull to get going. The dual fuel capability is fantastic, especially when fuel sources get scarce after a major weather events. Hopefully I won't need it, but its really good to know I have that kind of power source when the lights go out.

Generator Life until Temporary Power arrives

I purchased two of the WGen9500DF Generators (S/N:95B0421B7801 & S/N:95B0421B8622) that I run rotating the use as a AM Generator and a PM Generator for my RV Camper until temporary power is available at the site for building our home; having two separate generators (AM/PM) takes the wear-n-tear off of running a single generator constantly. I have purchased the Westinghouse Smart ST Switch and seems to work great as long as I can change over the power outlet plugs from one generator to the other. Overall, I'm extremely happy in the performance of theses generators... I am currently running the generators on propane as a fuel source and have been maintaining regular maintenance as instructed. I'm very pleased with the simple operation of the generators. We love the remote control start/stop feature as well as the push button start on the generators. This was a wonderful purchase!

Great, cost-effective solution to Freeze Blackouts

Bought this 1 week ago, based on the recommendation from a friend. We're both in Texas and looking ahead to future winter blackouts, we needed alternative, cost-effective solutions, to the Generac's on the market. This product addresses that need!
