Great Generator

I bought this generator to replace a Champion generator that failed. The beast was very easy to setup and has been wonderful to own. I love that they included an SAE battery disconnect. Makes connecting to a battery tender a snap. The remote start key fob is a nice addition as well.

Top of the line

Being a disabled Veteran, it was seriously hard to get my previous generator started by the pull cord. I needed an electric start. I ordered a when 9500DF and have no issues at all. Plenty of power for RV and my home. The electric start saved my back and many headaches. The overall quality is truly top notch!

Gets the job done

I bought this just in time before hurricane season really gets busy down here in South TEXAS. It exceeded expectations and powered the major components needed (AC, sump pump, refrigerator, lighting) when we do have any power outage for an extended period of time. I feel much more at ease knowing this generator will handle what we need in an emergency situation.

Nice generator with great features!

This generator is great! It is not that much bigger from the generator I am upgrading from although it's power output is about 33% more. The handle to move it was thought out well. It connects to the frame at two points which allow for better weight distribution and balance when moving the generator. The electric start with wireless remote is another great option that isn't common in generators in this size and price range. The option to run on propane is a nice option to have when gasoline pumps become crowded or gas itself is hard to find. Combined with a soft starter this generator is capable of starting and running my 5 ton AC which is something the generator I am upgrading from wasn't capable of doing.

Powerful performance

I'm very happy with this purchase. I have used it twice so far and its has powered everything we needed. I like the dual fuel option. Its somewhat noisy but I knew that from other reviews. I had a small issue with the automatic choke, and the customer support was great and help straighten out. Great performance and support at a reasonable price.

Safety flaw

This generator comes with a remote control and that doesn’t make sense. You can’t start or stop the engine unless you physically attach or detach the electrical connection according to the operations manual. Also if running on propane you have to manually turn off the propane gas valve to stop flow. If you simply press start or stop on the remote without making the physical changes you run the risk of damaging the generator and in the case of propane you run the risk of creating a substantial gas leak. I ask Westinghouse what does the remote accomplish?

reply from Zach

Hello, thank you for your feedback! The remote start and stop are based off customers not needing to manually start the generator and for when it is being ran off of gasoline. If there is anything we can do to help, please reach out to us at 1-855-944-3571 or support@wpowereq.com. Thank you, Zach - Westinghouse

Best Features for the Money

I purchased this to wire into my house panel with help of electrician. Seems to be well built. Hooked up to a propane line from my house propane tank. Once I realized the choke was turned to on position, and I turned that off, It fired right up and ran perfect. I plugged in several items to do the break in. Very pleased so far.

It’s like a Cadillac model generator

I just fired it up today using propane and it started in seconds, runs smooth and is much quieter than my old one at the other house. Plugged in my Milwaukee circular saw which draws about 13 amps or more on start. Going to wait on putting in gas until I need it in emergency. A real gem.

Great Generator

I bought this generator in June 2023. It arrived undamaged, and was easy to assemble. It started up on the first try using the push button ignition. Follow a short break in period, I push a load on it and it worked as advertised. While I hope not to have to use it, it is comforting to know that I will have the necessary power if and when needed

Easy to start

I purchased this because we are seniors and we had a generator you had to pull start and when it was 20 below zero and our power went out it would not start. I am in high hopes this electric start will benefit us tremendously. Have already tried it out and love it!!
