So far, so good, I think.

I just finished the break in period all on propane. Latter part of period I put a 1500 watt space heater on it and seemed to operate fine just as the heater would on house current. During shipment the bottle of oil must have leaked. Fortunately, the baggie that the bottle was in contained most of the leaked oil minimizing the mess. The metal handle stop pin up by the hinge fell out while I was doing the assembly. I put it back in place and tapped it back in with a hammer. No problem. I will test on gasoline and more of a load after I change the oil to full synthetic blend 10w-30w.

No More Power Outages!

I bought this in late July, and opted, since it was transfer switch ready, to install it, so I purchased a 15FT 50 Amp Generator Extension Cord and Power Inlet Box Combo Kit with Locking Connector, and the generator interlock device. Yesterday, I received the generator and today it is running. It powers everything in the house, including two A/C units!!!

Huge bang for the buck!

I bought this in September of 2020. Everyone that I know with a generator offered the same advice on what to buy...get as big as you can afford and the more outlet options the better. This one really shines in all of those. We have used it twice since we got it. It ran all night on a tank of gas and it ran 2 space heaters, multiple lights, TV/Satellite, and fridge without a whimper! The only negative I can think of is that it does make some noise. But the sound of no power is deafening. Another big plus is the dual fuel option. You never know when gas may not be available and your propane grill may save the day!

Hurricane Force Generator

The WGen9500DF is a Beast of a Generator!

The WGen9500DF is a Beast of a Generator, a great machine that is engineered, designed and built at the highest level with the best features available in it's class! Assembly is simple if one pulls down the sides of the box, leans it to one side to install one wheel and mounting foot, then lean to other side to complete assembly. Next, add oil, fuel, turn fuel valve to on, plug in battery wires, turn on, hit the start button on the key fob, and hear this beast purr to life on the first push! I intend to connect the WGen9500DF to our breaker panel with a receptacle and interlock kit and to have both propane and gasoline stored for emergencies. The load capacity of this generator is more than enough to handle all of our electric needs including A/C in our historic bungalow in Houston. We feel a great relief that during Hurricane seasons, we can fully power up in an emergency. Furthermore, the price is unbeatable, and the portability of the WGen9500DF allows us to move it from Houston to our farm, should we need to evacuate the big city prior to larger storms. As an engineer, mechanic and classic car collector, I can tell you that this machine is as good as it gets, and I would recommend it to anyone!

Love that it is Dual hookup!

We were experiencing lots of power issues in our area as the bugs had got into the Ash trees here and when they tress would fall they were taking down the power line causing power outages. Every other day our power was going out. Our old generator we had took a dump so we had to purchase a new one. Found the Westinghouse WGEN9500DF and read the people's reviews and found all positive reviews and decided to give it a whirl. We love that we can hook it up to Propane. Doesn't gunk up the carburetor! It burns clean and it's not as loud as our last one! We love it and definitely recommend it.

Works great

Bought this for a what turned out to be a multi day power outage. Easy to assemble the few pieces that came in the box. Had a bit of trouble getting it to start but a quick shot of starter fluid fixed that. Used for about 2 days with absolutely no issues. Did the first oil change which was relatively simple with easy access to drain bolt. Was happy to find out unit was quieter than I expected as well.

Dual fuel and nice features

I bought this generator after researching quite a few different brands. This seemed to have a lot of nice features and small details that made the difference. Dual fuel was a must but the outlet covers, remote, start, and ease of use and maintenance made me feel good about my purchase. There was little assembly and in no time, I had my 40lb propane tank hooked up and was ready to go. It started immediately and has been purring ever since. It's a little bit loud but a small price to pay for power during an emergency

Quality Whole Home Generator

Purchased to power whole home in case of power failure. I connected to a propane tank, and it provided power to every room in my home including 2 furnaces and 2 A/C units. Handle and wheels make for easy mobility. Quality generator and highly recommend!

Great Generator 👍 have been without power for 6

We have been without power for six days and the 4000 watt gen would keep the freezers and refrigerators going but not much else. 95° days, so.its been kinda miserable. Got this generator today (6/23) and it's a world of difference!! Can run the portable a/c, fans, and lights. Going to try the microwave later. It's a little louder than the old one, but not as loud as some of the neighbors. Runs a lot longer as well! I am going to put a transfer switch in for.the next time. This generator is a great buy! It was easy to set up,( add wheels and legs). Cranked on second try! It's heavy, had get help unloading it, but easy to maneuver with the installed handle.

Great out of the box

The wife finally said I could get a generator after our most recent power outage. Loved the features, including the 50A plug of this Westinghouse model. When it showed up the morning before a snow storm struck, we had it set up and powering the house less than 30 minutes after opening the box!
