Started right up first time....

Right out of the box this Genny started right up. When I was researching Genny's before buying, the reviews said the batteries arrived dead so had to be charged before testing. Well mine arrived with a full charge and we hooked a 25 pound propane tank to it pushed the start button and she started right up. I use mine for a whole house generator for power outages and about three weeks after getting it all hooked up the power went out and was out for about 6 hours. I have it hooked up for manual switch over , and I had no trouble at all she started right up and ran like a charm until the power came back on from the power company and then I switched her back to house power. I run a refrigerator freezer and a deep freeze I would normally have AC but we didn't use it that day, coffee pot, toaster and a toaster oven, flat screen TV, couple of laptops, cell phone chargers, and a water fountain for the dogs,. I have a lot of other appliances too but we don't use them unless we absolutely need them. I had a highly recommend this dual fuel Westinghouse generator especially if you need one for a whole house generator. I'll be building I'm sort of a dog house around mine with open ends so that it can breathe when it's running but it will be covered to keep the elements off of it and it'll have a door that opens on the front so that I can get to controls

WGEN9500DF

The Wgen9500df portable generator offers a blend of reliability and performance ideal for various needs, from home backup to outdoor adventures. With features like a robust engine, flexibility to use gas or propane, sufficient wattage output, and a range of outlet options, it provides a dependable power source. The noise level is relatively low compared to similar models, enhancing its appeal for personal users. However, the instructions don't include one should make sure the fuel line is open when you are trying to start the engine from the gas side of the engine that's the only downside for. Overall, the Westinghouse portable generator is a strong contender for those seeking a reliable and effective portable power solution.

Well built, and awesome features

This generator ticked all the boxes for me being a good brand, versatile with the dual fuel, high output and had the remote start that I wanted. All that and the price was good. I'm hooking this in to my panel with an interlock kit. Happy with this purchase and ready for when the power goes out.

Great Support

Received generator yesterday. Needed to remove the bonded jumper on the generator for my use. Called support to verify that I was terminating the correct wires. They answered on first ring and were easy to understand. They were familiar with the product, answered my questions promptly and provided me with a safety warning that if I use the generator as a stand-alone that I need to re-bond it prior to use. This is what I consider excellent support.

Perfect for backup power during hurricane season

The WGen9500DF is exactly what I was looking for as backup power during hurricane season here in Florida. It was delivered to my home in excellent condition and I was very impressed how well it was packed. All that had to be done was to attach the wheels to the underside of the generator, which was easy to do. I really love that it can run on gasoline or propane gas so that I have options in case one isn't available after a hurricane. It's transfer switch ready and powerful enough to run everything necessary in my home when there's a loss of power from a storm. I like that it has a remote and is very easy to start. I'm so glad I purchased this. It will definitely give me peace of mind during hurricane season.

Nice package

Arrived 11 days after purchase with no visible damage to the box. Opening revealed a well packed unit. Everything looks good. Easily installed feet, wheels, and oil. Added ethanol free gas to tank. Plugged in battery to find it dead. Plan to drag power line to garage today to charge it. Pull starting is a little more than I could manage at 68 years old. Temperature is running about 20 degrees here. May connect propane and try a couple more pulls before dragging extension cord 70 feet to the house. Impressive looking unit. Still need to investigate whether it's safe to power electronics without filters. Expect no problems powering 2 refrigerators, a freezer, the furnace and almost the entire house from the 50 amp receptacle. May need to coordinate the range and clothes dryer.

Perfect for what I need!

Bought this generator for a backup power for my house. Unit came with every single piece of information your could ever need from getting warranty registered, parts break downs ect. I work for a rental company and have seen lots of new generators come in and only send little to no info. Goes to show they back there product and want to help the customer.

Great features. Easy hook up

We ordered online and set it up as soon as we received it. This model has dual fuel which is awesome. If our small town doesn't have power at it's gas station we have three 30 and four 20 pound propane tanks we keep full for our camper and grill. We decided to hookup the 50 amp circuit to the house. We are not disappointed. We had 1 freezer , 2 refrigerators, AC and the pump hand come on. The generator dropped 1 or 2 volts and when the water pump shut off it came back up to 115 volts. We have not tried to run the generator on propane as yet. I am sure it will be just fine. It does come with a regulator and hose.

Great tool

I bought this as a back up for my home electrical system. I like the idea of having the dual power, so I didn't have to rely on one type of fuel. The electric and remote start are very good features. No problem running my furnace, sump pump, heater, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, gas dryer, etc. After all, this is a must for your home!
