Dual Fuel/Electric Start/Full house power

This product meets my needs (an insurance policy) to power my home in the event of power failure most likely caused by a hurricane. It offers a 50 Amp service for whole house power needs. This unit also offer dual fuel options (gasoline/propane) which make this generator more versatile.

Great Features!

I bought this generator a couple of weeks ago. My intent was to replace my current portable generator with one that runs the whole house - including central air conditioning - while running the generator on propane. This generator does both very well. I had my whole house up and running via the WGen9500DF generator - on propane - in 5 minutes.

Awesome Dual Fuel Generator!

I bought this for use in Texas for my house when we lose power to keep us cool in the summer. Super easy set up, not too heavy, very mobile, and easy to operate. Can easily handle two portable AC units and multiple fans as well as three refrigerator. Exactly what I needed at a very reasonable cost

Power at last

I am glad to have gotten this generator, after a few tornado power outages,. it will be good not to have to worry any more. The man who will install all the power cable lines. Tells me have such a Stung powerful duel fuel generator, this will power the entire house with ease, accept for the washer and dryer I would have to turn other items off because they draw so much power, all my friends say I got a real good deal, now they are looking to pay the same type I have.

Easy start with remote control

I order this generator on July 5th and it was delivered on July 8, very quickly. Hooked up to propane tank and it started on first push of remote control button. I have not used it to generate power yet. I purchased this portable generator for emergency hurricane conditions.

Good Quality and Lots of Features

This little genset has lots of nice features and appears to be made well. It's quiet for its size and power and the electric start is very nice. Knocking off a star for dings and dents on delivery but that probably isn't entirely the manufacturer's fault.

Looks good BUT some details not so good

I bought this generator about a week ago so have not run the unit yet. Four issues out of the box and it is brand new. 1.When I went to install the wheels. The axle for one wheel would not go through the axle bracket because there was a metal burr sticking out. I used a dremel tool with a grinder bit to remove the burr. 2. When I went to install the feet, the one had metal fragments in the threads. A pick was able to remove the fragments. 3. The instructions indicated a remote but it was not in the accessories box as indicated. I found the remote attached to the manual start pull chord. 4. When I went online to register the generator, the submit button did not work. It was necessary to call customer support and they registered the generator. Hopefully the generator works better.

Really good so far with a couple flaws

I bought the 9500df a few weeks ago and it arrived 3 days ago. Everything works well so far and this 9500-watt unit is just 3-4 inches longer and 2 or so inches wider than the 5500-watt Generac it’s replacing. This is not a super-quiet generator but it’s not bad and it’s no more or less loud than the smaller one it’s replacing, which is a pleasant surprise. A couple of issues so far 1) this generator is supposed to have an auto-choke feature but that doesn’t seem to work - it will not do a cold electric start unless you engage the choke manually. Not a big pain, but it limits the utility of the starting key fob, which will only work if you engage the choke manually OR if the engine is already warm. 2) the 50-amp receptacle is right over the wheel, and all 50-amp cords have a 90-degree connector and a THICK cable, which wants to go right where the wheel is. You can angle the connector in, but it’s not very secure and exposes the metal of the plug, which is dangerous. If you can find a 50a plug extender to give it another inch, that is highly recommended.

Great strength and durability! Long lasting tank!

Bought this machine to power my welder and oh boy it has been a smooth machine to work with. Very intuitive and quick to learn, this machine will be with me for years. The sheer strength in compact size is amazing for traveling on the road. As a new business owner In mobile welding, this machine has been a great testament to its name. The dual fuel system adds a more sustainable feature to it and still being able to outperform all its duties. Thanks Westinghouse for an amazing product!

Nice generator for power outages

I bought this generator to supply power to our house during power outages and also for powering various farm tools where power is not available. I like the electric start and the duel fuel as I have propane tank right next to house. It appears to meet all my needs. I've started it and ran it for 1 hr. to break it in. Easy set-up and instructions.
