Everything my electrician told us we needed

We purchased this generator for backup power. It will run our furnace, our freezers, and my husband’s work computers. It runs smoothly on propane and appears to be great quality. Keep in mind that you may need a qualified electrician to install a transfer switch. We are pleased with our purchase.

Great Features!

We purchased this generator at the end of August. We are excited about the features and looking forward to trying it out. The four rating is because we have not had a chance to hook it up yet to see how it works. We will update our rating once we give it a try.

Very good unit

After planning to do a whole house backup with Generac only to find total cost would be close to 20K! My licensed electrician uncle told me about a more cost effective way to getting same power for less. I found this unit to be very popular for DIY backup for less on YouTube. I'm very pleased with its power capabilities and the price was very reasonable.

Great power & price.
5 out of 5 stars review

Started right up and runs great.

Purchased this unit because I trust the Westinghouse brand and because it was a good price. Pleasantly surprise the setup was easy and the unit started right up. Only negative was the level of noise, but that is expected with this type of generator.

Impressive Product

I purchased this generator as a means of providing power to the house in case of a power failure. This dual fuel source generator has performed beyond my expectations. It was delivered well wrapped with all the parts that needed to be attached in a cardboard box that was in great shape. The delivery man placed it in my garage, so I did not have to struggle with a large, heavy box. The contents of the box were in great shape and upon placing the extra parts on the generator I started it. After hooking up the battery, it started and ran like a charm. It is a great product that has been well designed. It has much to be commended.

Sturdy Unit

The WGen9500DF seems to be a very sturdy unit. A friend has a WGen8500DF and has run it on both gas and propane to power his well and heat in his well house with great success. I intend to use my 9500 during power outages for temporary whole house power.

New ease of mind

Purchased this generator as we get the occasional hurricane and blizzard through the area. Started right up and love the battery start option. Through in the remote starter and what more could you ask for. Doesn’t run the entire house, but will keep the food cold and run some human/pet heating or cooling.

All that I'd hoped for.

I've been interested in buying a generator for a few years now. When I started researching them I noticed that Westinghouse kept coming up with high marks. I took delivery today and was impressed right out of the box. Easy to set up and started first time. Tried it under load on the house with a/c and well pump running at the same time. This is all I need. Glad I bought it.

Best made with the Best Warranty

I finally bought this unit after years of indecision on a generator. I decided on Westinghouse because of the 3 year warranty and after reading so many customer reviews. I set it up today, hooked it up to a propane can, and ran like a champ. I am expecting the best performance for years to come.

Works as described!!!

Had to use it during hurricane Ian in September, Used my old 50amp spa hook up with an 14-50p plug and powered the whole house including central air (no soft start). The only problem I had was the oven should have turned off the air, refrigerator, and freezer while using it. Ran like a champ for 6 days and nights nonstop except to add or change tanks ran propane mostly but had to use gas when none was available.
